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 movie reminds me a lot of boondocks saints when it first came out. A lot fo local buzz. Many people are talking about this movie in the New York/ New Jersey area. I think it's because there are no big shot movie stars and you got raw authentic acting. It's like their a documentary when it's a movie. I Think it's great the movie shed a dark light on the mob genre as well. Not glorifying it. I think it's also great that it's a modern day mob movie. You never really see movies like this set in 2020. Great to see this. I hope they make a sequel. I want o find out more. Like did they really have to end it like that though? I had that same sick feeling as I did when I watched the end of the sopranos.
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.
Bless Me Father is a great movie. It really blows my mind that this film was made with all non actors and it was the filmmakers debut feature film. I am giving them this rating because for limited resources they had and the extremely small budget this was made on it's almost impossible what they did. Usually I don't like when I hear someone wrote, directed, acted, edited, and even did the sound design, but McLaughlin pulled it off. I would say for him next time to delegate some of the responsibilities to other people and the movies will be that much better, it's still really impressive. You can tell the guy put his soul into it. Ive seen the Sistine Chapel and Michelangelo work. This movie is no where near that level of greatness, but I would say the guys out there doing his thing.
Great movie! Wow I can not believe this was all filmed in NJ, It makes the armpit of America (lol) look great. The scenery is so beautiful it's almost hard to believe this film had the budget listed. Like a Hollywood film would have used the budget of this whole film on less than 1 minuet of footage and it wouldn't nearly be as entertaining as this film. This film just kept coming with the punches crime, stripers drugs it had it all. Really depicting the gangster lifestyle in such a cinematic way. Really impressive cast as well no one looked as if they were acting, such natural performances I loved it!!
