Excellent, Without a doubt!!

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

I would not trust the review or ratings on this site. Over the years, I've found that if you like independent, quirky films that are not predictable and cliché, you can disregard most of the ratings here because people that are active are no help. I only recently joined to give my two cents, only because I finally got sick of the awful reviews and strange ratings.This movie is hilarious, and offers a dark, comic backstage view of the NY theater, and the New York street that's without compare in films. The actors are top shelf, and they are not out there doing it on a hunch.You should rent it and make up your own mind rather than listen to anything written here, including me.

awful awful... you can't even say this is a tarantino rip off because in doing so you would imply this is like a tarantino but its sooooooooooo bad...i haven't seen a film this bad in a long time . so go ahead and rent this or buy it but its out of print for a reason not one bit interesting and worse they try to act in the movie the whole thing ... it's even worse than it sounds alot worse.

"Frogs for Snakes" **1/2 "FFS" is a hard movie to describe. There is this group of actors in NYC. They work together. They know one another. At various times in their lives they "love" one another. And they compete for the same parts in off-off-off Broadway plays. The owner of the theater, where they most often act and compete for parts, is run by Al. Al is a gangster and he employs these actors to make collections for him. To this point in the description of the movie it sounds like a kind of slice-of-life type story. But, "FFS" slips back and forth between the actors, Al and their day-to-day lives and killing one another. If one of them thinks someone might have a leg up on them for a part in a play, they kill rather than compete. And, after a kill the remaining players might slip right back into a dialogue that makes the killing seem like just another day at the office. Entwined in all the dialogue are these really interesting scenes, played out by the characters, from movies and stage plays. My favorite was a tryout where one of the actresses is doing Harry Lime. "FFS" is a cross between "Pulp Fiction" and "Living in Oblivion." I won't go so far as to recommend this movie but I will say I was fascinated by "FFS."

Underground director Amos Poe presents this Tarantino-esque gangster movie, which is also a close portrait of a woman trying to break free from her old life. All trimmed with some violence, black humour and loads of quotations from the world of theater and movies. (watched @ the world premier at the Filmfestspiele Berlin)
