Saw this movie at the Garden State Film Festival 2025 and was very entertained. Great story of redemption, great acting and solid New York story. Cool film with an old school NYC vibe. Lots of action propel the story and each character has an arch. Fun moments and comedy in this film, as well. Peter Greene is fantastic in his role, always with an edge and you can really feel for Lenny. Matt Grossman as the cab driver is fantastic. Super fun watch at GSFF in Cranford, NJ. Will def watch on streaming and recommend highly to film lovers, especially those fans on "Mean Streets" and "French Connection."
Beggarman was so refreshingly great to watch! The style, tone, and storyline were immensely compelling. I watched this movie at a film festival and could not take my eyes off the screen for a second. It had me (and the rest of the audience) on our toes the entire time. You know a movie is great when people in the crowd can't help but react out loud-gasping, laughing, fully immersed. Lol! Lenny Thomas brought such depth and vulnerability to his role. Not to mention, the entire cast, writer, and director are so talented. I honestly can't wait for it to drop on streaming so I can watch it all over again and share it with friends!
Amazing movie that captured my attention throughout the entire film. I absolutely loved it! All of the actors were fantastic and the storyline kept me glued to the screen. I had fun watching this with my family and everyone enjoyed it! It didn't feel like we were watching a movie, it felt like we were there and part of the experience. It is a unique story and didn't feel like anything I had seen before. Lenny Thomas did an incredible job in his role as Beggarman and I highly recommend this movie to everyone. Whether you like action, suspense, or love, there is something for everyone in this powerful story.

Beggarman had my full attention throughout the entire movie. Great story, great acting and great scenery. Definitely worth watching. Love that it's real and what I mean by that (without giving any spoilers) is that we see the things that go on in the movie in every day real life. It makes you feel all sorts of emotions. I had the opportunity of watching Beggarman at a film festival without really knowing to much about the plot and I so glad I didn't because it had me locked in from beginning to the end. Oh man! Definitely a must watch. I promise you won't be disappointed. Great job on the directing too.
Got to see the movie at the 2025 Garden State Film Festival. This movie was far and away the best one there. Truly enjoyed the acting, the writing and the overall feel from the movie. The locations were great, and gave a real New York City feel to the movie, gritty. Sometimes when movies go for a gritty feel, they also come across as amateurish, but this movie felt polished.
Also thought the performance from Lenny Thomas was excellent. He comes across as an actor that you will be seeing more from down the road.
Overall highly recommend checking out Beggarman. Definitely worth a watch and hopefully there will be more places where people can see the film.
