Don't Believe the Hype

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

This is a low budget movie that is every bit second class as it can be, but it has a first class twist to the plot. It surprised me and changed my mind a little on this movie. Here's the set-up - rich bitch hires homeless ex-army dude to snuff out her now dead half brother's boyfriend. Why, because half brother left large inheritance to boyfriend and she wants it back.You'll know what happens early on in the movie - ex-army dude falls for dead half brothers boyfriend (the guy he's suppose to snuff out). So if you decide to catch this cheap flick and you want to see a lot of California scenery and two hot dudes in bed getting it on, start from the beginning.But if you want to see the good part of this flick skip the first hour and watch the last 30 or so minutes. Believe me you'll know exactly whats going on and you'll see the plot twist and understand it too. I never heard of Jack Brockett, or Sean Paul Lockhart and which is which I don't know but one of them did some fairly decent acting - considering this grade B movie!!

Seems to me that Brent, oops Sean Paul Lockhart still trying his best way to go mainstream cinema beside porn industry. I've seen some of his film, like Judas Kiss, small part in The Big Gay Musical (2009) and Oscar Winning movie Milk (2008). I have to say this, with honest and respect, still and yet, he found his best acting and fair debut as his first directing.But, with another honest and respect, this film just far from good. The worst part is terrible story. It's more likely some kind of gay fantasy story, that someone (assassin with military background) would kill you for money and God knows that you would falling in love with someone should be your victim.Another worst part is the acting. Well, we shouldn't expect mush from mostly "amateur" actors. I'm lost count how many "oh God..." I said during the movie.Overall, if you enjoy film with skins (sure, there are some explicit full frontal nudity here), beautiful male actor with great body shape, then, this film would be perfect.

It took me 3 days to actually watch this whole movie. This should be a warning about how bad this is. I think they where all full with good intent, trying to make this a semi engaging thriller about a hit-man with a sordid past, but the God awful acting makes it a torture to watch. Sean Paul Lockhart keeps pursuing his "serious acting" career, after the whole porn past, but somehow, his acting skills still as convincing as they where in the porn industry.And that might be enough for you to break it in a 30 minutes scene, with lots of moaning and sexy faces... but if he wants to be taken seriously in the acting career, he might try to act a little more, and show a little less skin.There's nothing wrong with some nudity here and there, but is kinda silly to assume that its normal to walk around half naked most of the time. I wanted to resume the story, but there's actually not much to resume. They keep trying to make the plot more interesting, throwing in the most unconvincing drug addiction (I gotta say, that's one of the healthiest drug addicts I saw in a movie, for a long time) guns , swearing and the not so much occasional sex scene, but in the end is a big old cliché where the main character isn't what he seems to be and a sweet lovely guy who apparently nows how to give massages that cure PTSD and loves to have sex and snuggle even when being chased down by no apparent reason, with lots and lots of angry speeches and the dumbest ending EVER (I've put spoiler alert in the description, but I'm not sure this is actually a spoiler, or what it's possibly spoiling)There are lots of great indie movies. There are lots of great gay oriented movies. There are lots of great gay oriented indie movies... but this is not one of those.

This movie is no different from thousands of other low budget movies made in America. The scripts are poorly written as usual and the direction always looks like the same (toss up between a few) people taking turns directing them.I won't try to explain the plot because that's the part of reviews that I hate to read or hear about when I check out other reviews. Besides, someone from the film's production has already written a synopsis that anyone interested can read.It's a universal fact that most low budget movies, whether gay or straight are usually bad. The cast are usually all unknown first time actors or porn actor(s) in this film, continuously trying to make it in the mainstream movie business.Sean Paul Lockhart is the director as well as one of the stars of this film. He is a well known gay porn actor that has made a fortune performing in, producing and directing gay Adult films. He has also used a few different "stage" names for reasons that is best explained by people that have followed his (porn) career.If you're a fan of cheesy low budget films, Sean Paul Lockhart (aka) Brent Corrigan and a few scenes of male nudity; you'll love this film.I appreciated the beauty of the male nudity but I did not enjoy the poor dialogue, the story and the generic direction.
