Excellent, a Must See

In other words,this film is a surreal ride.
Casey Duggan
It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny
Lidia Draper
Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Im not going to say much other than it reminded me of suicide kinds with a much better twist. Iveseen a lot of reviews where people are complaining about the twist at the end. I found it totally unpredictable and actually gave you an answer to the whole movie unlike so many movies today where it ends with someone just walking away and you are left saying "that's it"? I gave it a 7 only because 7.7 isn't an option. I would watch it a second time and i do suggest this movie as a good movie that will not leave you feeling you've wasted your time. Also, i had no problems with any of the acting, overall i would give the actors a 7 as well.

Four young men make a risky investment together that puts them in trouble with the mob. The word 'F*ck' can be heard 70.000 times during this film also John Travolta needs to stop being in movies it's sad now the worst thing about this film is Dan Stevens that by the end of the film they tried to give him a bigger plot twist and background but the movie is do dumb and hilarious in a bad way and when there's no plot you just don't care at all. Also Michael Pitt was another character that nobody could feel anything for his character or anyone else on this story. Jackie Earle Haley actually directed the film and co- starred as well and i really feel bad for him also cause he was in Nightmare on Elm Street as well and you know what that film turned out to be.

Four friends become four dumb criminals when a huge investment deal turns sour and realise that the money for the investment came from an underworld criminal boss who wants his money back.Noah (Dan Stevens), Zach (Michael Pitt), Warren (Christopher Abbott) and Bryce (Rob Brown) are offered a get out deal by mobster Eddie (John Travolta) who wants them to kidnap a rival gangster Marques, because he has kidnapped Eddie's niece and he would later wipe the slate clean.Gerry (Jackie Earle Haley) is a henchman for Eddie supposedly trying to locate Eddie's niece. The four of them kidnap the rival gangster and wait for further instructions. In the meantime Marques plays with their heads that causes tensions.Jackie Earle Haley directed the film as well as appearing in it. Travolta has a glorified cameo with his awful hairpiece and his presence makes you hark back to those twisty Tarantino type thrillers. There is a 'The Usual Suspects' type denouement which lifts the film from being truly dreadful but it is too little and too late for what is a humdrum and wearisome film.

A Low-Budget Indie by First Time Director Haley. His Film will Probably have You saying this isn't the first time for this Type of Thing. Obviously, a Homage or a Copycat, depending on Your Feeling about the Film.It's mostly Dialog Driven with Splatters of Violence for Punctuation. Sound Familiar? Some of the Scenes are irritating Shouting Matches and Hardly Witty. Others are more Clever and make for some Interesting Exchanges.An Amateur Kidnapping Scheme is at the Center of this Exercise in Neo-Noir. Haley plays a Glib and Aloof Mob Enforcer and John Travolta is in one of His Slumming Roles with Bad Makeup, but Manages to be an Anchor of Sorts for the Young Turks and Their Concern with High School Camaraderie and Current Girlfriend Fidelity.It's a Scattershot Story with some Intrigue and Interest, not a lot of it Works but some Things Do and it is Worth a Watch for B-Movie Fans, and Tarantino Rip-Off Spotters. The Ending may be more Complex than Needed, but it Feels like the Filmmakers think that the Overly Twisted Wrap Up makes this Something Special. Maybe, but Maybe too Clever for this Small Film to Pull Off.It's a Multitude of Things that were Withheld from the Audience and You will either be Saying A-Ha, or Give Me a Break. Depending if You can Fully Understand it all or Feel that it isn't Worth Understanding after all.
