One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
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.
The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
Despite its low budget and no name cast, the film basically delivers. Essentially, its the story of a small town conspiracy. The story centers around Holly who is a less than perfect mother who finds herself accused of murder. Peppered with well established plot elements, the film rides the line between cliché and homage. Some of the action elements are pretty good, particularly a scene involving a cliff jump and rapids, where the lead actress obviously did her own stunt. Liked the female lead and actor who played the young deputy. The film moves quickly with a nice ambiguous twist in the tale. Performances are uneven but overall production values are good and the story kept me engaged.
