Pretty much a hot mess.

Despite lots of good actors, this film (story line) is all over the place. Meg.

starsIT'S FOR A ROLE

William Spinks (John Savage) is a successful business man who is willing to pay big money to have sex with his former business partner's daughter who he knew many years ago. He doesn't know exactly what she looks like today, but managed to confirm her identity with a phone call. Due to a light accident our gal Sadie expires. The men who made the arrangement need a lookalike (Gillian Jacobs) because they don't want to pass up the large sums of money involved. The quest then touches on our subplot of two brothers who deal and use drugs and the women in their lives. This also involves some improbable coincidences so that the story could have some interest.

The characters really didn't grab me. You find yourself rooting for the bad guys trying to do a little good. The film includes a deaf girl with a fake leg (Scottie Thompson),because...I am not sure why they wrote the part that way.

Would make for a low expectation rental. Not a keeper.

Guide: F-bomb, sex, stripper nudity (Emily Jessie Thomas +other)

Watchable but feels a bit poser-ish.

By poser-ish I mean that it's trying to be a gritty crime ensemble flick but it's just a little 'off' in most regards.

The acting is a little 'off' at times as is the direction, editing and the cinematography isn't the best, they are trying to make it look fancy but instead manages to do the exact opposite.

The overall plot is pretty cool but the dialogue could definitely have done with some enhancements with a lot of cheesy lines that feels like they were taken out of a soap-opera at times.

So yeah it's not a film that grabbed me by the edge of my seat and occasionally my mind wondered astray but for the more-part it managed to keep my interest.

So yeah watchable but flawed, 5.5/10 from me.
