Overall, "Suffrage" is a must-watch for fans of murder mysteries and dark comedies. With its intriguing plot, stellar performances, and sharp direction, the film is sure to leave a lasting impression.

This delightfully eccentric film offers a refreshing perspective on contemporary issues, featuring veteran actor Eric Roberts. "Suffrage" follows the adventures of the down-on-her-luck private eye, Cat Black, as she unravels the connections between a surge in crimes and a reclusive famous actress. What sets this movie apart is its refusal to conform to pretentious trends-it's a fun and quirky ride that kept me thoroughly engaged. Acknowledging its flaws, including slightly forced dialogue and a somewhat predictable storyline, the film still manages to entertain and it pays off, leading to moments of genuine laughter. Cat Black, portrayed by Natasha Hall, delivers a commendable performance, and Eric Roberts brings his signature charm to the screen.

The story develops with a speed of lightning. I recommend watching this movie twice in order to enjoy every detail in the plot.

The film raises important political and social issues but wraps them up in a light-hearted comedy, so it never gets preachy. Moreover, the movie allows us to get a glimpse into the colorit of Southern Californian life.

Suffrage is a sequel to the 2021 movie Natasha Hall. This time a private investigator, Natasha Hall, is trying to solve the murder of the mother of one of Hollywood's most famous actresses, Rebecca Lyone.

Cat Black who plays Natasha Hall is wonderful and charismatic, and I think she can play absolutely anything: from character comedy to psychological drama.

Allen & Burns. Bogart & Bacall. Tracy and Hepburn. Now add Cat Black & Joe Black to that list-the new husband and wife duo for the 21st century audience. Suffrage conveys a dedication to the art of filmmaking, while paying an homage to those who aren't afraid to push the envelope artistically, putting the love of the craft first and letting the audience decide for themselves what the movie means to them. Being creative means opening yourself up to vulnerability, being misunderstood, being able to laugh at yourself and the world, and having a willingness to believe in what you are doing in spite of those around you. In my interpretation, Joe and Cat hit the nail on the head. Suffrage is life. So why not have fun along the way.

I enjoyed this film because it didn't attempt to be too cool for school or rely on esoteric clap-trap. It was a fun, quirky movie that kept me engaged. I stumbled upon it while scrolling through a streaming service and thought, "Why not?" Unlike many big-budget films that have bored me within the first 15 minutes, Suffrage held my interest.

Sure, there were some issues. The dialogue felt a bit forced, the pacing was a tad slow, and the storyline was somewhat disjointed, yet predictable. And you could pretty much anticipate where it was heading. However, if you stick with it, you'll be rewarded with a good amount of laughs.

Cat Black delivered a solid performance in the title role of Natasha Hall, while Eric Roberts played his usual type of character, as he often does in his later films. Ron Thompson added humor, and the rest of the cast performed adequately.

In summary, Suffrage is a delightful indie film. Is it a tour de force in filmmaking, no. It really doesn't have to be. Sometimes you just want to suspend disbelief and roll with it. There's enough genuinely cool laughs in to make it worth your time.
