Odd mix of medium and low budget
14 August 2022
What an odd film. Very watchable. Has a few very good moments, mostly average moments, and some terrible filmed by a grade schooler moments. Such an uneven production. Acting, writing, directing, production, cinematography all range from terrible to brilliant. The ending is stellar, and helps pull the rest up out of the dumpster. There are also a few nice moments throughout, mostly involving the russian woman. The attorney brother is a very curious and unique character who ends up being meaningful to the film and post credit shot, just when you thought he was a simple slapstick entry to the film. Feels like he was pulled straight from the Seinfeld world (not because of his similar appearance to Numan, but because of his character...more like Kramer).

I don't want to oversell this film. I cant call it good. But there is definitely a good movie hiding here, that under a better director might have been great. And I dont want to undersell the director either...they had their moments of brilliance.

As I mentioned, the full circle ending was brilliant and well filmed.
