Reviews

vrecar You really have to be a fan of the actors, to sit thru the whole movie. It's just so slow and predictable. I wasn't really hyped and didn't expect much when i watched the trailer ... but damn was i ever so right. The movie wants to be smart but fails with long, pointless dialogues. Twist? Well... Let's say that it looks like Captain Obvious wrote the whole thing.Scenery? Two locations. That's it. Seriously. Acting is fair. Val Kilmer does a good job in a brief funny role. Ray Liotta and Gina Gershon are decent but far from their best.And all the gore that wants to be "over the head" is unnecessary. It just makes movie even more shallow. Watch it if your life depends of it... But rather just pass.

Chrysanthepop The main problem with Jesse Baget's 'Breathless' is that it takes itself too seriously thinking that it's slicker, cleverer and funnier than it actually is. The weak script is perforated with holes. The dialogues try to be clever and funny but they hardly impress. A movie like this really needs to sustain its tension and element of suspense but every breath that 'Breathless' takes is predictable. Moreover, the pacing drags especially the dialogue ridden scenes that after a point sounds like mumbo jumbo. Of the performances, Gina Gershon does a fine job. Kelli Giddish performs adequately. Val Kilmer is funny in a brief role. Ray Liotta is far from his best. Production value looks quite good. All in all, 'Breathless' is lacks the life to sustain the viewer's attention. For a dark comedy, its just not that funny.

in1984 Given the nature of the film, a very smart pick for the lead character, but the rest of the character choices end up being one of the few problem areas of the film. 80 of 100.What if the younger character in Thelma and Louise had followed the normal path, remained a waitress, grown old, and become a deteriorating middle-aged housewife? This film provides one amusingly satirical answer to that question.Destined to be a cable and cult classic where big name actors and a big ad budget isn't necessary. The lying and counter lying mixed with the Texas setting makes it something worth repeat viewings.

Tony Heck "We are in Texas there are no accidents. There's alive and there's dead." Lorna (Gershon) is very upset with her husband Dale (Kilmer) after years of prison for robbing convenience stores he is free. She finds out that he has robbed a bank and she is upset because he isn't sharing with her. She calls her friend "Tiny" (Giddish) over to help her though her problem but things go from bad to worse. I have to say that for the most part this was a pretty entertaining movie and it made me laugh a few times but it is not anything really good. The humor is the "redneck" type of humor like the kind in "Raising Arizona" but it's not quite as funny. I've said for a while now that Val Kilmer has really gone downhill for some reason. While this is his best (and by that I mean only watchable) movie in a while his acting is terrible. Ray Liotta has been going down that road too but his acting is actually decent in this movie. This is nothing amazing but it is pretty funny in a very dark & I shouldn't be laughing at this kind of way. Overall, not a bad way to spend an hour and a half. I give it a B-.
