I've heard a lot of opinions about this film, most of them are good, but I wanted to see what's good for myself. So i checked it out and I would agree. I strongly reccomened this movie to indie film lovers who want to see an Italian Mob Movie done the right way. It's raw, gritty and authentic. Usually when films are two raw or gritty they take away from the film, but with Bless me Father it added a level of intensity and realness. My favorite scene is in the basement of the strip club with Trulove. I felt like I was there in the room with everyone. So authentic and real! Really loved what they pulled off.
This flick won't disappoint if you are thinking about it definitely hit buy. It's a film full of passion full of emotion I really loved it and it got to be very emotional at different points in the film. I would like to see more women next time and not just more women half naked but more of the women who are closest to the protagonist Vinny's life. For example, his girlfriend Tina, it would have been great to have seen more of her at the beginning of the piece she was a great character and I think it would have added a lot to the plot to have seen more of her. Great role which I think the actress smashed completely. That said great performances all round.
All I saw wrong to lose a star was that it isn't long enough, I want more!? Any way there will be a sequel, I would love to watch one. I would want to know what happened to Vinny and have the story explained in more depth as it was so captivating, and I couldn't take my mind of the plot after I had finished watching. What a well written script with a story line you don't see coming at all. Around every corner is an unforeseen change of events are it really kept the story exciting and engaging. I would love to see more form this talented cast and crew seriously will there be a sequel as I want one!!!
This is crazy, I grew up watching some of these guys play high school football and college football. Some big former football players in this movie. If anyone knows, Betim Bujari, who played Nino, was the starting center at Rutgers for 4 years. Bekim Bujari who plays Gino in the movie is a great football player as well, He played professionally. Haha this is so funny to see them play Gino and Nino. There scene is my favorite in the movie. I won't give it away, but you gotta check out that scene. So many local guys, so great to see up there on the big screen going for it! It's nice to see this.
From start to finish this was a great film. It was entertaining well-presented and the music was powerful. I loved the cast they kept me entertained with raw performances that weren't pushed at all. I think this was a very well cast piece as it seemed all characters fitted their roles perfectly. The story itself has lots of unseen surprises for the audience. Without giving any spoilers there is one point in the film where you are so confused about the main characters decision in the moment. Vinny played by Gianni McLaughlin is a very complex character and the motives behind his choices. Gianni did a great job and I hope to see more.
