Audience Reviews

Narate 6/10 Nov 20, 2024
_"You have one thing money and practice can't buy - you look like a nice guy."_

Halfway through I wasn't sure if I was into this but I am glad I stuck through with it because the third act was worth it. You can't trust anyone and the twists are great. Diego Luna is also so likeable!
Chandler Danier 7/10 Jul 23, 2025
The problem is that John C Reilly is a guy you'd give your bag to. This film lacks cynical prick with a face you'd love to punch. I've seen too many generic city 5s.

Fun story. Cool actors. Unexpectedly funny. Short.
