Daniel B @Gkchesterton Mar 1 I don’t understand how this movie has positive reviews. It was so bad. At every turn, the filmmaker chose the less compelling and less dramatic option opting for boring pointless long shots. I guess an attempt to establish gravitas? Didn’t work. But more to the point, it’s so full of plot holes. He drives around with a guy in his trunk, leaving his car in public places for a good part of a day and no one hears the guy screaming, and banging on the trunk? He drags what he thinks is that guy’s dead body along with him when he’s trying to escape from people trying to kill him? Instead of just fleeing with a shotgun, he puts the shotgun down to put a dead body in his car? Nothing in this movie made any sense And the lead actor was terrible. He had one facial expression the entire movie. Miss it See more Ace H @ACEofbase Jan 3 Not sure how these so called experts on here can sleep giving this movie a 96 rating? I think the var has definitely been lowered or people today have just forgotten what actually qualifies for a quality film. The main character in this movie more plays a homeless vagrant then changes his look to a 35 year old middle school assistant principal then on a turn becomes Rambo? The story line is ok but the execution is sloppy and this character Leaves more tracks easier to follow than a snail. I for one have not compromised my opinion on what qualifies for a quality film just due to the fact that these movies are far and few these days, no I will not lower the bar even though that apparently is the trendy thing to do, I for one still remember what qualified for a 96 rating and these one indeed is not one of them.

It’s called flicking the channel changer anyways ride fund the beginning. It could’ve been similar to a couple of events in my life not about the killing part but sleeping in the car. I never run through garbage for food, but I can see how somebody might if they were hungry enough although I would never do it myself I would think of something more creative like working at a Deadpool or something like that, but whoever wrote this story is very creative. I don’t know where his mind or imagination came from. Did he live these experiences or are they taken from other movies but yes, definitely awesome. Not much of a music score which it makes it more suspenseful and adds to the creativity all in all this is definitely a four star movie and should be recognized as a great cult film if you wish. kudos!

The story is smart, fast paced, and has some unexpected twists.. the bad guys get theirs, that's for sure, but during it, the good guy damn near sacrifices all he cares about. Definitely worthwhile here... unpredictable, well acted, and just a kick ass story . I'm always thrilled when i watch a film i'd never heard of before stumbling on it on some Instagram movie recommendation reel and finding it memorable and fun.
