    Worth Watching

    Worth watching. "Making of a Killing" is twisted tale of intrigue based on a real-life small town murder mystery. Christopher Lloyd plays an aging sex-offender who gets released from jail and returns to find out the town's mayor has double-crossed him. Hats off to Director Devin Hume for capturing this engaging story-line of why some small-town secrets are better left buried.

    Good black comedy - the movie moved along at a good pace

    Really enjoyed this movie. The actors were all good, and the action and story line were good. This is the type of movie that is just fun to watch. Only negative is that the sound engineers play the music too loud, especially during the action scenes.

    Two "Brothers" Breaking Bad in New Mexico

    A very effective low budget true crime story. A tad rough and rather flat in a few spots, but overall the direction is fine and the acting is quite good. It's a deliciously sordid story that's served up in a straightforward style. There aren't really any surprises in store, it's pretty obvious what's up with the brothers, but the tale is fairly crazy enough to keep one's interest throughout.

    more holes than the mortician dig

    This movie could have been so much better done. Decent acting but horrible holes and ridiculous coincidences. Also, another "black people good - white people bad or corrupt" film.

    Very fun, quirky film.

    Great story and character development. Exciting. Loved the mix of suspense and humor. Highly recommend.
