Reed's Point

Joe Estevez at his best! Fabrigar's typical formula; cheesy script, weak story, a well-known actor thrown in with unknowns = a paycheck. But could anyone reading this do better? I'm saying probably not....making a feature film is not easy, getting it to the screen is even harder.

Having said that, the film still isn't worth a recommendation.

The film lacks in many areas, has the usual trappings and tropes but no momentum. It took me at least three hours of on, pause, on, pause, and repeat. I stuck with it quite honestly because I was making soup and this was just a distraction during a pretty mundane task.

Not much I can say other than to quote Joe's character "You've been warned, you've been warned!".

This movie had great dialogue. Something bad critics tend to lack. If your looking for blood and gore this isn't it but if your an intellectual you'll like it.

Firstly, the good - this was streaming for free on Youtube. The bad - that was probably still too much to pay.

As I see it, low budget movies like this need to lean into the mayhem to get away with it. This outing aggressively refuses to do so - instead meandering with expository heavy dialogue, long scenes of wandering around yapping, wooden acting and scant signs of the Jersey Devil we dialed in to see.

The third act at least lifts this effort from a 1 or 2 star rating to the lofty heights of 3 stars, as it is only then that things become a little unhinged and fresh. But that doesn't serve to elevate the movie to anything more than 3 stars.

Music is one of the most important parts of a movie . It's suposed to set the right mood for each scene .

This is soap opera music . It's ruining the movie . I can't even get into it.

Music can make or break a movie . I can hear this one breaking .

Maybe if it put me in the right mood I would have actually finished the movie .

This music , and the bad acting put me more in the mood to look for another movie to watch .

Maybe another time I will watch it on mute and read subtitles to try and get through it that way .

But usually if a movie disappoints me already in the first quarter , I don't usually go back .

How did this even get made??? I've never acted before or been to acting school or have any natural acting ability that I know of but somehow I feel that even I could have done a better job than some of the wooden spoons in this movie. Shame because it looked like it could have been a lot better - the scenery wasn't too bad and the general idea was good but like a previous poster mentioned..it's way to hard to overlook the acting (yes... looking at you, leading actress...)
