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.
I didn't know what to expect when I saw the screening at the Garden State Film Festival, but was captivated by the story, cinematography, acting, and production quality. The grit and development of the main character really came through and captured the imagination the entire film. I was emotionally captured as one could imagine the difficulty of a veteran dealing with the realities of finding a money filled time capsule and the impact of the real world. Trying to convince people to help you while also dealing with the very real scenario that these same people would harm you for their own benefit given the opportunity, while implausible, resonated and made for a great plot line. Needing to use the cash in the luggage to help improve one's life after so much trauma was heart wrenching and the outcome kept me gripped to my seat. If the goal of cinema is to explore the characters to drive an emotional outcome and lose oneself in the art, this movie overachieved. Great work by all involved and looking forward to more from this team.
Lenny Thomas nailed this role! Got a sneak peak of the movie and it's fire. First started following Lenny in his role as Dikahn in Tyler Perry's Ruthless (Also nailed that role). Awesome dude. You're missing out if you don't watch this movie! He's also a pretty solid gamer! Great at photography and videography as well. Well rounded person, awesome personality. Met this guy IRL, not stuck up at all like most Hollywood celebrities. This dude is definitely going places, I encourage anyone who reads this review to follow his budding career! He'll be a household name before you know it! Wishing peace love and success to this guy!
Frankie Montero and the Old York Pictures team smashed this movie! I was lucky enough to catch the premiere during the Garden State Film Festival and was completely blown away.
If I had to describe it, I'd say it's like Martin Scorsese and Quentin Tarantino collaborated on a film - and the result was "Beggarman."
It's a nail-biter, it's funny, it's sad, and it's real.
All the actors in the film were fantastic - from the leads all the way to the supporting cast and extras.
I truly enjoyed this film and highly recommend it. Can't wait to watch it again - I've been telling everyone about it!!!

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.
