AboveDeepBuggy Some things I liked some I did not.
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
adonis98-743-186503 Two misfit brothers hustle cash and chase dreams in desert. When a mysterious woman threatens to repo their beloved houseboat the brothers cook up an epic con to finally leave their dusty town and sail off on a beam of sunshine to California. I really do not get why someone like Michael Shannon a good and pretty capable actor said yes to this movie? Was it simply the good money? or just was he bored at the time? Whatever of the two it really was this movie was simply dumb and even worse? Plain boring and badly made both in acting and characters
hipCRANK This is a dirty movie, well, dusty may be more appropriate. Brothers Samson and Romeo are introduced trying unsuccessfully to sell back a lawnmower they just stole from an ex. The cops have more trouble trying to hold back the pipe wielding woman than making what should be a routine arrest. This is the arid South, where everyone is scrambling for something, and most folks are dirty.Our small time hoods have small time dreams, but even those they can't seem to get right. Subsisting in a desert trailer, the duo scheme and scam their days away in hopes of some far fetched pay day, which will take then to California. There's a bit of Grapes of Wrath tumbleweeding through this jerky plot line, capturing present day down and outs and the choking bleakness of their existence."Poor Boy" does little justice to several juicy characters in favour of the brothers connection, but that is where the film ultimately succeeds: with the unflinching bond only blood can provide. Lou Taylor Pucci and his strokeable beard is fabulous as the domineering yet utterly misguided big brother, to Dov Tiefenbach's silent but tenaciously game sibling. It's a gloriously character study and not much more. But sometimes that's all ya need.
