Rub

This film was really surprised me. I thought it was going to be a slasher film at one point but it totally in another direction which I really liked.

While not a perfect film by any means and maybe coulda have been 10mins shorter, to watch for free on Tubi that's filled with some of the worst movies I've ever seen this film stacked against actual movies that were in the theaters I've seen.

Acting was great! Jennifer Figuereo is an amazing uo coming talent that needs to be discovered and it was nice to finally see a real women in a leading role.

Neal was great as well and all supporting cast were either hilarious or memorable.

Is this the avengers NO but that's a good thing

Watch this film.

Just saw this on Tubi! Rub delivers a gripping blend of passion and peril, reminiscent "True Romance." This indie gem captivates its raw evocative storytelling. The chemistry between the leads sizzles, elevating the high-stakes narrative of love and danger. Stunning cinematography and a haunting soundtrack immerse viewers in a world where every glance and touch carries weight. A must-watch for fans of the genre, Rub proves that indie filmmaking still has the power to enthrall and excite. What sets "Rub" apart from many other films in the genre is its raw authenticity. There's a grittiness to the film that makes it feel real and immediate. This isn't a sanitized, Hollywood-ized version of love and danger; it's messy, chaotic, and intense, reflecting the true complexity of human relationships and the precariousness of life on the edge. This authenticity is likely a result of the film's indie roots, which often allow for more creative freedom and a stronger personal vision from the filmmakers.

I noticed the filming locations of Peekskill and Brewster, NY and since I live close to both towns, I watched this film and I recgognized some places, including a motel which is listed in the end credits(Heidi's Inn).

Micah Spayer is Neal, a nerd who is mocked by his co-workers for is lack of success with women. One of them gives him a business card for a massage parlor.

Jennifer Figuereo is Perla, a sexy young woman who relieves Neal's stress with a body rub with a happy ending. He becomes a regular and after a robbery, the happy couple go on the run from some bad guys with evil intentions.

The actors have good chemistry and the conclusion is fairly realistic. A decent way to kill an hour and forty-five minutes.

Neal, who is lonely and has no love life, goes to a brothel run by in the name of a massage parlor on the suggestion of his office colleague and meets Perla there and changes Neal's life completely in a single night.

Neal and Perla gets a second chance in life to live the life that they wanted but get's stuck and encounters with problems and people beacuse of the damage they done to survive their past.

Movie deals with Work-Life Balance, Bullying at Work, Social Life and Sex trafficking in a very simple and subtle way.

It's a good movie and you should give it a watch if you like small indie crime dramas.

I have to admit I was not very leaned into watching this one, but I was convinced by the reviews, which seem to be written by real film buffs.

It's watchable, but... except for the main characters and the mechanic, all others exageratedly overact their parts. SUPER ARTIFICIAL!!! The "cops", Trevor, the boss, the shop owner... pffff...

The story is actually OK, but, having been able to go either towards the road movie or "good guy works it out" types, it went neither way, and got stuck in the middle.

Like one of the reviewrs said, and I agree: photo is good and it is well shot. Nothing else I can say about it.
