Showboys (2011)
9/10
Original and well done
16 November 2012
Showboys is a hilarious movie with great actors, and great storytelling. There were zero plot holes, which is rare for an independent movie, but Showboys really pulled it off. The production value was off the charts, making it seem like a multi- million dollar budget, and all of the actors were perfect in their roles. There are very original lines, jokes, and overall scenes which makes it stand out from other comedies of its caliber, again a difficult task. I literally laughed so hard my abs hurt, and I'm certain the guy next to me pooped his pants a bit from the laughter. I would definitely recommend Showboys as a must see, and I'm certainly going to be buying a copy of it when it's out on DVD.

The Lackey (2012)
9/10
Can't Wait to Own it
7 August 2012
Warning: Spoilers
It's been said that everyone is a critic, and social media helps to propel that "my opinion counts phenomenon". Unfortunately, for most, this comes in negative form. However, there has been nothing negative to say about "The Lackey". Why? First off, it's just a good movie. The production value is like that of a million dollar movie, and the acting accentuates that. Well written characters with very specific quirks fill the scenes with fantastic visual action, and realistic dialogue. The main character himself was well done, and if I didn't know Shaun, I'd believe he was actually from across the pond. The bad guys actually kind of scare me, guys like DT Carney, Guy Grundy, and Jeremy Dun who plays "The Russian" genuinely strike fear in me. Let's not forget the comic relief buy Rickey Bird Jr who played "Sonny Fingers" and his diabetic cohort "Suga". These two dudes made me laugh throughout the flick, helping to counter balance the very well done dramatic scenes by "Jude's" ex-girlfriend. I was literally blown away by these performances. The film had a certain feel to it, like that you would find in a Guy Ritchie film, which made it a fun story. It left me wanting more, and the good news is, there will be!
