Corre y dispara

I had forgotten my IMDB credentials but this movie was so manure that I had to go through the extra work to leave this review.

If you have seen The Room, this is a sequel to that. Not thematically but otherwise. Not as funny, but definitely cringe-inducing in such a fashion that it will leave your face permanently disfigured.

Script is written by a child who likes dank memes, has never heard of "show, don't tell" nor has any idea how to people speak. Combine that with director that has no idea how to move the movie forward and just makes the most banal choices. Useless main character with whiny attitude. Even more useless bad guys with deep philosophical thoughts like "I like to imagine eating T-Rex when I am eating chicken". Terrible acting. Plot twists that make your hand start searching for nearest box cutter to end your life so you would stop feeling this deep vicarious embarrassment. This movie has it all.

The only thing that keeps you watching this thing is the curiosity on what idiotic thing will happen next. I guess that counts for something.

The ray, or run and gun was a fun and watchable movie. It might not have been overly great, but there were certain things that made it good. The strongest part of this film to me is certainly the cast as each give their own and through the seriousness there is also fun with their characters to be had. Ray was in prison but he reformed and has a good job, now with a girlfriend and child. But he gets a chance to make it big with one more job and so he does it and gets in with bad people. Richard kinds character having a deep conversation with Ray about the Mandela effect was one of the funniest things and I liked it for that. Overall it's a decent action film that was made well.

Nothing classic, but an enjoyable little contained thriller. The central macguffin scene is an entertaining gag, there's some decent gore chase setpieces. All in all it feels like a first time director who hasn't quite gotten a handle on how to connect scenes and move the story along naturally. Lots of the movie takes place in a handfull of locations, and where a more experienced director (or maybe a larget budget) can make a few settings maintain momentum, here it feels much more like treading water waiting for the next action.

It's probably not going to be a favorite of anyone watching, but a few good kills, decent performances, and flair in the writing make it worth a stream.

Also, if you like Richard Kind, he gets a few monologues and to hang out in a nice suit, so there's that.

After leaving a life of crime and violence, Ray is a reformed good guy, enjoying a quiet family life in the 'burbs. But when his past is discovered, Ray is blackmailed into one last job to collect a mysterious package. After a deadly double-cross, he finds himself wounded and on the run from ruthless assassins who will stop at nothing to get what he has. Now, with the lives of his loved ones hanging in the balance and danger at every turn, Ray's only hope is to draw upon his violent past to survive.

Good, very good, fun, with that touch of acidic humor that we love, ironic and sensitive at the same time... With convincing performances and an engaging narrative, the smart guy being made of cake and the fool being smart, good twists, great ending, adorable...

A low budget film that punches above it's weight class. A clever idea for a film. If the budget was bumped up, they had an A-list actor and if wrote it less as a horror film; I could see this getting a following.
