The Charisma Killers

The film opens with a very Guy Ritchie esq character intro, narrated by the awesome & legendary Vernon Wells.

We meet our characters and instantly relate to them on some level.

The action doesn't pause, the story flows with ease and the film fly's by leaving you wanted a continuation, whilst simultaneously leaving you with a satisfying conclusion.

This film has it all, action, violence, gore & heart.

My only critique, is some of the more emotional scenes could do with less soundtrack, but for an Indie production the production quality would forgive you for thinking this is from larger studio.

For an Indie movie, this is definitely one to watch!

Michael Matteo Rossi movies grow with each release.

Waiting impatiently for The Charisma Killers Part 2.

Where to start, it is like a Tarrantino film that he came up with when he was hammered on cheap whiskey and directed by mobile phone with a poor mobile signal, for a start the beginning is slow, the middle is slow and the ending just plain silly, the characters are over the top, there is so much time wasted on them at the start to try to pad out the story, not that there is much of a story, it is like going back to the 80's with bits of all the worst action films cobbled together, to be fair it is well filmed and there are a few light hearted parts and amusing parts but they don't really help much to be honest, it is pretty naff and I only left it playing because I was doing something else whilst it was on.

This film has interesting characters with underlying complexities that still somehow feel relatable to the viewer. The writer managed to include the characters' backstories in a way that worked well with the storyline without feeling like it was going off course. I especially enjoyed the fight choreography in the different scenes of this movie. The narration provides an intriguing layer to the film.

With the action, characters, and pacing of the film, it feels like a fast watch. There were a lot of twists and turns in the plot that I did not see coming, all the way until the very end of the film. If you are a fan of action flicks, add this one to your list and give it a go!

I am not usually much of an action movie person, and I loved The Charisma Killers! The story is full of twists and turns right up until the credits, keeping the audience guessing.

Writer and director Michael Matteo Rossi pulls no punches with the storytelling or intensity in this film. The characters are all interesting and unique, and you get invested in them right from the start. Just when you think the film has gotten as intense as it possibly could, he cranks up the dial again. The ending also gives resolution while also leaving a lot of unanswered questions, which leaves the viewer with a lot to think about, trying to tease out every little detail of the film and figure out the answers to the unanswered questions.

Such a great film!

Excellent movie and I totally recommend anyone who's a fan of excellent storytelling and characters embracing and taking pride in their roles to watch this movie. You'll be able to see the creative writing mind and attention to directing detail that embodies Michael's work. He does an excellent job of telling each character's back story quickly and efficiently so it's both informative and entertaining but then turns around and builds a complete storyline with all the characters together. He is also able to leave a story that is open to additional storylines and I can not wait to see what comes next.
