Lake George

This was a complete surprise and a real nice one.

This movie stands tall in its genre (neo-noir). The movie's greatest strength is the chemistry between the characters and how their relationships develop throughout the movie. In addition to that, this is a love letter to Southern California and is shot beautifully. The plot of the movie did more than enough to keep me interested, and the ending had me thinking for a few days, which is always a sign that the movie stuck with me. A lot of surprises along the way, see it. Both of the main characters had great chemistry, highly recommended. Gangsters and such.

Sometimes a decent indie film comes along and makes a pleasant change from all of the big-budget tripe being shown.

Shea whigham is always great to watch and this time plays a down-on-his-luck bum. He approaches a gangster for money he's owed after being in prison.. the gangster refuses the money unless he does one last job. Carrie Coon plays the gangster's humorous ex who teams up with Shea and end up in a few dilemmas.

It's a simpleslow-burn movie but it's definitely an enjoyable film with some nice California scenery thrown in.

I would say it's a comedy/noir/thriller/road movie.

Not bad at all.

This is a love letter to some of the most beautiful areas in Southern and Central California and is shot beautifully. The cinematography on display seems to ramp up throughout the movie and gradually becomes grander.

This is one of Shea Whigham's best performances. Carrie Coon is also great. I have not watched Jeffrey Reiner's work in TV, but this guy is a capable movie director and I hope he makes his transition to movie directing permanent.

This movie is my first time(to my knowledge), I have watched a movie starring either Shea Whigham or Carrie Coon. The movie moves rapidly, wondering what is going to happen next??? Shea does a great job, but Carrie...knocks it 'OUT OF THE PARK'! I was immediately captivated by her screen presence and ability to create a character with so much charisma, wit, cunning and resolve. No matter the obstacle, she has the solution. She was so convincing in that role, just a masterful performance, and a joy to watch! I find it rare, to watch a movie with this degree of quality in the script and acting. All the principals in the movie, gave great performances, Kudos to all; especially, Carrie!

An english language movie telling the story of a man (Shea Whigham) returning to public life for prison. He visits a well heeled gangster who orders him to perform one more job. This entails killing the gangsters old love interest.

The rest is an obvious play, Carrie Coon plays the love interest of the gangster and her trapped in the car with her would be killer goes through all the steps you can imagine. Her voice for some reason is strident, and just a little annoying. Something lacks on the audio here, it goes to the plot that she would be loud and demanding, but it does travel to the middle of ones brain!

The ending of the movie goes past it's climax and soon we cannot wait for it to be over. The great things about the movie are the pictures and photography are clear and beautiful. So many modern movies take the slow burn to hell and back, but this is very well paced. If you get a chance, do watch this one. Great plot, acting good, direction is good too. Pity about that sound....
