*Mini Flashback Friday*

Taylor(Robinson)has a bad heart, One day he gets ill as he’s walking on the beach and gets saved by ex junkie-stripper Krystal(Dawson). When he comes to he’s instantly enamored by her. He does everything in his power to find a way to connect with her, including faking being an alcoholic/going to AA and copying a persona of someone he thinks she would fall for. Everything starts to fall apart when pieces of her old life start to return and Taylor learns that he still has a lot of things he needs to experience.

Fundamentally, this movie had many positive things going for it. Unfortunately, it was not great. 1.3👍🏻 out of 5.

The movie had great potential, a seasoned director, a really good cast. The story for me was easy enough to follow at the start, but then things just started to fall apart. All the characters just stopped being logical and the story took odd turns.

The acting was pretty good from the main players. Both Dawson and Robinson did a good job of getting into their characters. With T.I. it felt very forced. I know he’s not a professional actor, but he just didn’t fit the bill to me.

Their are a couple of good funny parts and a zinger here and there situationally that will give you a chuckle or two.

The good acting from the parts of the support and leads and a good couple of jokes couldn’t save it. Once the story stated getting weird with the mini “devil” that Taylor and a few of the others kept seeing started his shenanigans I began loosing interest. The film started to be strange. A couple of points also felt “do as you want” in the direction sense. Which I think is a William H. Macy thing because “The Layover”(2017) has the same feel.

All in all I wanted to like this movie because of the great casting and initial synopsis of the story but, my love for Rosario Dawson and Nick Robinson’s cute as fuck “Southern Draw” just could really save this one. You can for sure skip this one and not miss anything.

Review (with Spoilers)

With school shootings becoming almost as normal as the United States announcing combat operations, films like this one are sort of weird. For while there is We Need to Talk About Kevin, among many films which approach school shootings,…

Znana z “Gotowych na wszystko” czy też ostatnio z “American Crime” Felicity Hoffman, dołączyła do obsady produkowanego przez ABC pilota nowej serii komediowej “Presence”. Twórcą serialu jest John Ridley który ma na swoim koncie również “American Crime”. Niestety wygląda na to że aktorka pojawi się gościnnie jedynie w pilocie. Zdjęcie z planu zobaczyć można poniżej:

I haven’t heard about this film until last week around the whole Caitlyn Jenner Vanity Cover craze started happening. Though I can’t say I cared much about the whole Bruce Jenner interview back in April, for some reason I was very enthusiastic about Caitlyn’s Vanity debut as I did think it was a new model on rise (and you know what? she is!) But I digress… Discussing the whole Caitlyn situation…
