First off I'm going to offer full disclosure, I'm only 33 minutes into this film with 55 minutes left and I had decided to abandon it around the 30 minute mark, but I may eventually finish it. So bear in mind this review isn't a whole overview, but this Frankenfilm is so bad I may not have the energy to make it through all of it.
It's very telling that even IMDB lacks this as Tom Sizemores last film and he isn't even listed as being in the film on its own page. I assume it's his last film and that he must have passed away during filming because it's obvious he's in very little of it. 90% of his dialogue so far isn't synced with his lips, or is delivered off camera by a bad imposter or some cheap AI program. They also do the Steven Seagal body double technique a lot which stands out as NOT Tom Size more from a mile away.
A typical scene has looped footage of Sizemore smoking a cigarette and interviewing a lead in a diner. All of his lines are mimicked by an imposter and consist of one liners with him never being seen to speak, while the bulk of the dialogue is delivered by the other actor who was obviously alone against a greenscreen. That's cut with far higher quality stock footage of a coffee shop and really cheap after effects and you get a scene choppier than the ocean during a hurricane.
The film and the lead both look awful and so far the plot seems to be throwing as many random actors and bad line deliveries at us as possible until something coherent is birthed by accident.
Most of the big names are from an unreleased film and consist of archival footage.
This is a sad last testament for a great actor like Tom Sizemore, who was a 90s staple until his personal life derailed his career. I wish this film hadn't been "finished at all costs" and put out there. Instead I think it would have been better served as the basis for a documentary on what could have been, like Tim Burtons Superman project with Nick Cage. I really loved Sizemore in most of his projects, but honestly, this feels more like a slap in his face than some tribute.
It reminds me of the fake Bruce Lee craze. That's how much reused footage there is of him sitting and fake imposter dialogue is in it in the first 30 minutes alone!
I also should say that I could find absolutely no information online about this production, other than the same synopsis across a dozen websites.
