Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

The film centers around brothers Mike (Avelawance Phillips) and Tre (Malik Barnhardt). The opening scene is a teaser that repeats itself 40 minutes into the film. No sense attempting to figure out what it has to do with the plot. Mike recently gets out of prison and wants to spend time with his daughter. His ex-wife wants nothing to do with him. He gets involved in a fool proof bank robbery.Meanwhile his brother wants to do his last job. He is transporting money to "El Loco" (Danny Trejo) a bad guy in Mexico. At age 13 "El Loco" killed two grown men with his school pencil for raping his sister. Then he killed her so she wouldn't have to live with the shame. Shades of Keyser Söze. And a 30 minute plot spoiler...they have to bring back a kidney because no one in the US will give one up for the gross amounts of cash they are shelling out to get one from Mexico. Add some more undeveloped plot twists, some killing etc.A kidney? Seriously? Everyone has two and you can live with one. I can't imagine getting a kidney donor is not that tough. Now if they made it a liver, I could see that. Danny Trejo who doesn't have 513 degrees as the cover suggests is in the film for only a couple of minutes. The 513 is explained at the end of the film, as it appears no one could come up with a decent clever title. What is the shelf life of a kidney in a small igloo cooler in the desert? They do make coolers that plug into the vehicle lighter.The plot wasn't tight. The drama outweighed the action and wasn't that great. The film wasn't engaging and you really didn't care what happened to the main characters which were all criminals and weasels. Not worth a special effort to watch.F-bomb. Brief stripper nudity.

Five Thirteen is similar in concept to Crash and Babel in which several people's lives unexpectedly intersect. That may be a weakness to some people, but nevertheless the film held my attention well.However, this is not the best of films, either. It got a little weak toward the end with how they did the big tie-up, and the Taryn Manning story was the weakest part of it, but there's some solid acting here (some of the cast, anyway) and some surprises along the way too.I had never heard of Kader Ayd before this and he hasn't directed very many films (none in over 3 years either, so who knows if/when he will) but this is an admirable effort. I will probably watch it again sometime soon.

Much better than I expected, its a good story and even though a low budget production, it did impress me with density of the characters and the way the action progresses.In general I do like the choice of scenery and the way it was filmed. The theme is not something you see all the time and it did interest me. The music selection is also quite good.It has many good and renowned actors, even though the main ones are not, I still think the acting in general was quite decent although in certain occasions not very convincing. It's entertaining and does focus on so many different aspects of life, some of the characters are really confused people and do things in a way that makes you think and somehow shocks.Worth watching.
