Bring Him to Me

This movie about criminals, a heist gone a bit awry, money missing, and someone has to pay for that, the motivations, the tempers - has a bit of a timing and editing problem, and the story starts generic enough, then turns into a road movie drawn out, and takes a few unexpected turns down that road.

It is not really deep, but worked to make me care for the two mains. And some of the other characters are fun.

Some cookie-cutter bad guys, some chase scenes, and a successful underlying tension of what will happen when / if they get there.

This film is about seeing it through, but what and why gets twisted.

It was good acting, and it has a nice ending.

Terrible script. Awful accents. Nice lighting though!

Clearly an Australian-shot film trying to be American, but failing badly. Why do this? Australian crime dramas are perfectly fine, no need to USA-it at all?

So funny to see them drive on the right-hand side of the road, but then to see other cars parked on the left.

Rachel Griffiths' accent was the worst - she'd be embarrassed. Was she from Boston or Queensland? Maybe born in one but raised in the other?

It tried so hard to be moody, but the random insertion of 'deep' dialogue made it comical.

The worst movie I've seen in a long, long time.

A real dad movie. Bring him to me was somewhat of a non-planned movie. A friend asked I wanted to go to the movies and this was what was on so I thought why not.

While not relaxing at all, a relaxing movie which you can follow and does not make you think too much while watching it. Also quite short, which is good compared to a lot of other big name movies that are out now. Probably one of those movies that you can put on on a Friday night when you're drinking some beers with a mate or with your dad. A short and concise story with some twists that has everything you need in a guy's movie. Shooting, driving, what else do you need? A recommended watch.

Worth a look just for Barry peppers performance alone.

Slow burn with satisfying ending, filmed in my local town so I enjoyed it on another level.

Movie tell of a heist gone wrong and the price you pay pay for your actions and inactions. Don't be fooled this film doesn't shy away from the hard reality of life and crime.

Supporting cast from the always reliable Sam neil and racheal Griffith but the true star is Barry pepper the man as a face for this and could easy replace as the new Clint Eastwood for our time.

Story may not be new but it's never dull or lazy.

And the action for a low budget product was effective and brutal, what we come to expect these days.

As "Bring Him To Me" (2023 release from Australia; 96 min) opens, a driver is ordered to pick up a guy and bring him to crime boss of some sort. In a parallel story, we see the same driver as the getaway driver in a art heist gone bad... At this point we are less than 10 minutes into the movie.

Couple of comments: this movie has a film noir B movie feeling from start to finish, and I don't mean that as a negative. The story line is quite of less importance that the sense of danger that seems to lurk around the corner at any given time. A good chunk of the movie plays out literally in the car itself as we watch the driver and the passenger interact. I will admit I didn't recognize any of these actors (or for that matter the production team including the director). At just over 90 min. This flew by pretty quickly.

I don't know if "Bring Him To Me" had a US theatrical release (I doubt it to be honest). In any event, it is now streaming on Hulu. Where I caught last night. I knew nothing about this movie and simply took a chance on it. It's okay. Not great, not bad, but okay. If you are in the mood for a film noir B movie type, I'd readily suggest you check it out and draw your own conclusion.
