Kane

I liked it couldn't quite figure it out but what the heck it was different

For a change that was enough for today lol

I really think that Abe and all his personalities are all Benny to be honest

The way the detectives were looking at him made me think they were thinking...

This dude is off his rocker

I was waiting for that to be the conclusion and when it wasn't I was left scratching my head but in my opinion it was a valiant effort

I thought it was going to be a touch of THE USUAL SUSPECTS with an amazing twist at the end that would blow me away

Well it wasn't but still I feel it kept my attention to warrant this review

I will keep watch for more movies from this director.

Where to start. The writing is terrible, either written by someone really old and out of the loop or like that school nerd in high school writing about picking up women, doesn't have a clue! Tried very hard to have "cool" dialogue it missed the mark and was so bad it was cringe worthy. Instead of showcasing the Australian culture that is actually cool, they miss the mark again and use Australian actors with really bad American accents and the character monologues sound like an 80's cheesy radio dj with a slow, monotoned voice - again like your grandfather was asked to make his interpretation of cool. The plot tries to be clever by copying many different ideas and executed the story so predictable it left me shaking my head and wondering why the writer didn't dig a little deeper. The writer could have used the concept for an unpredictable twist at the end but instead used lazy writing, only that of someone not very worldly, with a huge ego and bad taste. This movie was written by Quinton Tarrintino, the one you receive when you order a script from "wish".

First off clearly this is not good. No way around that. The highlight here is the opening credits. The music totally has you pumped up and then its all nothing from there on out. Literally the high point is the opening credits.

What went wrong here.. well, the cast looked proper. They cast them ok. The tough gangster mobster dudes fit in. They can't act but they should not have to act. See this was supposed to be a mobster action fighting movie... What it turned out to be was stupid dialogue (remember the part about acting) and it buried itself. It tried to be too smart for its own good and collapsed hard.

You have a bunch of muscled up angry looking dudes and what do you do with them.. well, have them play dialogue instead of punching stuff. Total fail and waste of your time.

2\10 because i enjoy horrible dialogue from body builders.

These days it's hard to get through new films. Kane was well shot, visually pleasing and kept me engaged from beginning to end. A very solid cast with a nice range. I don't understand the low ratings. I see at least 30 new movies a week, so when this came to my plate, I finally said, oh good, a real film. I even watched this film twice not only because of the production value, but having a lot going on, you really need to pay attention but, if you miss something, it still works and has a nice payoff at the end. There are many twists and turns that engage your attention throughout.....I just say sit back and enjoy the ride.
