    Touches on feminsim and misogyny

    This movie really touches on a lot of issues in today's society when talking about women. The two main characters in the film are women and that is rarely seen.

    I also, think that it was a good mystery movie and a lot of the time i was sitting on the edge of my seat to see what was going to happen next.

    Good mystery

    Good mystery with a very compelling final 1/3 of the movie. Some of the actors were very good, including Heather Michelle and the fellow who played Jordan, but a couple of others gave inconsistent performances.

    Amazing acting by one and music I'd listen to forever

    Need to start off by saying Heather Michelle as Charlie Black is the absolute best part of this film and I would be so bold as to say that the film would have failed horribly without her. I haven't seen her before this film and absolutely cannot wait to see her in other projects. She has amazing acting abilities and makes Charlie the instant favorite. She brings her to life in a way that the rest of the cast fails to match. Also, really enjoyed Jorden and thought his last scene was fabulous. The music is completely perfect for the film and having Heather also perform worked wonders for this movie. Although the one who played Cece is rather annoying I thought she did an ok job and found that it was more of a "character problem" than an "actor problem." I found the film to be a lot of fun and definitely different from anything else I've seen which is a HUGE plus. I promise you- you won't be sorry if you give this film a watch especially if you look past some of the annoyances that Cece brings. Bravo to the director for giving us the amazing character that is Charlie.

    If I could I'd start a Charlie Fan Club- what a badass

    Found this movie on Prime Video and decided to give it a watch. I really enjoyed it and absolutely understand why so many people have written such wonderful reviews about Heather Michelle's portrayal of Charlie- just WOW. She is phenomenal and absolutely carries this entire film. What a star! (And with a great name ;) I saw some negative reviews over on prime and just don't get it. People, this is an independent film not some Hollywood Oscar buzz movie (which lets be honest 99% of those movies are a snooze fest!) This is a very solid film with an amazing actress at its helm so why don't we all focus on the good rather than always focusing on the bad?

    Haters just have nothing better to do, I swear.

    Anyway, I can't wait to see what Heather does in the future!

    Just a ridiculous, amateur movie that contradicts itself all the way through

    Their are two main stars of this movie. One, Charlie, is a singer and detective, int he sense that they have no idea what the police are like and so acts in weird stereotypical TV detective nonsense ways. The other, CeCe, is supposed to be an important physicist, with an even more absurd notion of what a physicist would be. There is crazy woo-woo nonsense that's even more absurd than normal for the New Age crowd that the character accepts uncritically. ("You must have seen another dimension! Because that totally makes sense! And so the guy you saw kill people is in an alternate reality, and you therefore totally have no reason to be worried about this reality's version, honestly!!!") None of this makes a bit of sense, but, to make it worse, they toss in a wildly over the top feminist rant at the exact same time we are showing extended amounts of wildly gratuitous nudity. ("Let's exploit these actresses while we have them preach about not willing to be exploited! We're so smart!") And they toss in a a music video for no reason other than to make viewers think they are cool. This is just awful. Avoid, Not even so bad it's good, just bad.
