Mjeteconer Just perfect...
Dorathen Better Late Then Never
MusicChat It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.
AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
NickyCee Out of the 1000's of movies I've seen in my 42 years of life, this is the worst acting and worst script writing I have ever seen. Without question, the worst. The timing, the character reactions, the way the lines are delivered. It left me (and will leave you) speechless. Characters switch reactions repeatedly to suit the "plot" and act aggressive and passive at will. They go through complete personality changes - sometime between consecutive scenes. They get excited or depressed at the same issue. The Queen Of Bad Scenes in this heap of festering garbage is the shakedown of a debtor. The characters laugh as they shake the guy down and so does the debtor. They are all buds just doing their jobs - the debtor asking for more time and the collectors doing their collecting. BUT then they confront the same man 15 minutes later about the same issue. His reaction is completely and totally different. He's now over the top afraid for his life yet laughed at the EXACT same threats from the EXACT same men 15 minutes earlier! No explanation whatsoever and no reason whatsoever EXCEPT the need to push the dumb plot along. You just heard about the Queen of Bad Scenes - Now for the King: The Leo's Rule Scene. O.M.G. I made everyone in the room with me watch it several times because it is the worst scene I have ever viewed on film EVER. It is so silly, so over the top, so poorly written, so out of place, and so poorly acted that it belongs in any actor's training of "How Not To Act 101." These type of horribly written and acted scenes happen over and over. And poor David Proval. It's very difficult to explain how bad his acting is and how poorly written his lines are. The crying scene with his mournful voice-over will leave you . . . speechless. And wait until he feels up the tranny. He grabs the "chick's" breast and screams at him, "WHAT'S THIS! WHAT'S THIS! WHAT'S THIS!" The tranny replies, "It's my breast." Proval's answer? "IT'S A LIE! IT'S A LIE!" In a later scene, the sexually confused Proval delivers what may be the single worst line in this sea of bad lines: "I have a right . . . to my degeneracy." How David got cast for the Sopranos after this movie is very surprising. By the way, he was excellent in the Sopranos. I just wish Janet Soprano was in 'Flipping' to off his ace early on. Gene Mitchell as "Shot." Wow. So very, very bad. And the number of F-words in this movie as these truly horrific actors try to sound tough "like they saw in Goodfellas" is appalling. In many scenes, it's every third word. Superb writing guys!I could go on, and on, and on. Truly a Tour De Force of bad acting and amateur scriptwriting. How this thing was ever made is far more interesting than the movie. How this didn't sweep the Razzies, i don't know. Bravo for a truly bad movie! P.S. You'll have to watch it yourself if you want to find out what "KAPAYA!" means. Misery loves company.
sbunc92-3 Have you ever walked in on a movie that had already started and you spent the next several moments trying to figure out the story? That is the feeling I had while watching this film. There is no setup, you don't know how any of these characters are connected. But in the end that is okay because after a while you don't care. The acting is terrible(except for Keith David who is wonderful) and the "script" is worse. I put script in quotation marks because half the movie is done in an improvisational style that just doesn't work. Technically, it is not much better. The majority of the scenes take place in dimly lit bars and streets. Don't bother with this, it is a waste of time.
