Dutch Kills (2015)

So much average

Don't Believe the Hype

Absolutely the worst movie.

To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.

You cannot call the plot or ending - definitely worth a watch

Absolute garbage. Lousy script, lousy actors, no plot. Total waste of time.

Ashley (Tama Filianga- co-writer/producer) gets out of jail after 3 years. His friend Valentino (R.L. Mann co-writer/producer) has been out for a year as his sentence was cut short. The crime they committed is not really explained. Val's smack head sister (Claire Jane Edna) has borrowed money from slim ball Lou (Mikaal Bates) and now Lou demands that Val get his old gang back together for ONE LAST JOB (original title).The film is low budget. The fight scene was filmed in horrible slow motion. The actual job we don't see, just people running around a corner with one person apparently shot in the arm. The acting wasn't that great and the dialogue slowed the film down. There is a twist, but when you introduce new characters half way through the film, it is a cheap way to achieve a twist. It wasn't well developed.Guide: F-bomb. Brief sex and nudity.

Contains one small spoiler that won't ruin the plot line marked with * *.Short version: Semi original crime/drama that makes an unoriginal plot line its own. Dull cinematography that suits the realism theme. Recommended for those who like crime, action and thriller movies.Longer version: This is a low budget movie, but this rivals a lot higher budgeted movies. The plot is nothing new but it does make it into its own. The dull cinematography captures the storyline in a way (which is a trend that becomes more and more common and rightly so) where it emphasizes the experience rather than detract from it (camera angles and techniques and their target are actively used to strengthen the impression rather than to simply impress the viewer). * The plot line is mainly about two friends from the street of which one is just released from jail. The other one wants him back into crime, which causes complications when a corrupt police comes into the mix. * Overall a good watch, as far as crime movies go a strong 6 or weak 7. I gave it a 7 as I believe it to be somewhat low budget and considering that it is well made.Pro's • Script • Sound • Cinematography • Length (not too short not too long) • Tama Filianga - got a face suitable for cinema and decent actingCon's • Partly acting (up and down for a few of the cast) • Low budget - this movie could probably have reached a good deal of success with the right budget, cast and a few tweaks. • A bit slow at parts*I don't think this is the last time you get to see Tama Filianga on the screen. Even though R.L. Mann (pseudonym?) does a somewhat solid performance any roles in larger movies suitable for him are likely to fall into Casey Afflecks hands.
