Un-resolved

This indie action film is a must see. With great pacing, superb acting, and beautiful cinematography, it tackles the issues of revenge and where to draw the line. Faced with the question of trying to choose a different path and safer life, or the easy route with fast money, good times but the worry of constantly looking over your shoulder as your life is at steak and today may be your last breath. Some find their breaking points, while others continue the path of an eye for an eye. Essentially it boils down to maturity and family but not without its many twists and turns. I recommend it for an engaging experience.

Bruce Carlton Cunningham wrote and directed this excellent entry into the crime family saga movie genre. Cunningham portrays the lead character of Tremaine Willis with patience and heart. Supporting him are Morgan Pierce playing his older daughter Carlissa, and Cetris Ivy Sr as his brother. This is a violent family drama about feuding gangs in the streets of St. Louis, MO. The crime lord is portrayed by a woman, which I appreciated. A raw, gritty depiction of criminal life that delivers the goods. The lead character tries his best to mend his own past and stay out of the fighting, but bad choices on the part of his older daughter Carlissa pull him in. Excellent music and cinematography. Fighting and gunplay was suspenseful. This filmmaker really cared abut his message and he had something to say.

This indie gem is a story about redemption where an ex con Tremaine is trying to get his life back on track. He's got a girl who is terminally ill and one who is mixed up with the wrong crowd, trying to hold on to dear life. Out protagonist is trying to go straight however the underworld is constantly trying to pull him back in.

The pacing of the movie is slow so our characters are allowed to unravel into a modern day tragic story with dire consequences. The cinematography and the locations were particularly good and the violent scenes were cleverly shot.

Can Tremaine find forgiveness and reconcile with his past, watch it and you will find out.
