While "Blow The Man Down" is original and the cast is sharp, the film never lives up to its full potential.

In this crime film, sisters attempt to cover up the murder a dangerous man and must go deep into the criminal underbelly of their hometown to do so.

Reading up on "Blow The Man Down", it was mentioned many times that this film was a mix of dark humour and a crime drama. I honestly didn't laugh at all; it's more of a drama than anything else. Sure it's got quirky characters but don't compare "Blow The Man Down" to "Fargo". I did enjoy the cast; Sophie Lowe and Morgan Saylor are a terrific duo. The real deal in this is the great Margo Martindale, who was born to play a role like this; twisted, rude and vengeful. Overall, something was missing within the film and I didn't get all the hype surrounding it. If you'd like to see it for yourself, you can stream it on Amazon Prime Video.
