Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation
Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.
Quiet Muffin 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.
Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
ikechristian Acting, was done very well, by all cast, each character really made you think that they were able to tell a story through character, rather than telling it. As far as thrills go, it was sub par, but yet interesting. For a low budget movie, this was done well. This is not a must see, but if you want a movie to think about, specifically the theoretical questions behind each characters past, watch it.
yogsottoth What? How? Why? James Franco? Seriously? I'm speechless. This is literally the worst movie ever made. I've never hated a movie so much. I hope every single person involved lost money and friends and whatever sense of dignity they thought they had. Alas the fact that this garbage has rave reviews means the people involved wrote them so I don't think they'd know if dignity hit them in the face.The terrible decisions start with Franco's character and the "extremely clever twist" the whole movie was built upon that you can see crystal clear a mile and half away. In order to avoid having to deal with other characters having conversations with Franco like "Who the heck are you?" and "How do you know about the vault?" and "We don't have an assistant manager by that name", they decided to keep Franco completely isolated from the others throughout the movie, literally not saying a word to each other or an acknowledgement that he exists. Naturally the first thing we think is "Ghost" Did you really think you were the only one who's seen Sixth Sense? Oh and they had to audacity to change that dynamic once the characters didn't have to speak to each other. Suddenly they could interact with Franco so that they could reveal the big bada boom twist that just blew our minds away. After giving us every single clue that Franco was a ghost...Everyone is everywhere, all the time. Just pick a room and stay there! Going up and down, not doing anything... Don't you have jobs?! Who's in charge of hostages? It can't be everyone! You can't take a hostage for a little pee break and heart to heart when you're supposed to be working on your escape route! And why is there one single person down in the vault? That's the whole reason you're all there! Why are there 4 people upstairs screaming at the camera for five minutes going "What is he lookin at!? There's nothing there. Smh, this guy is weird" and not one person goes to help? And how the hell did the fat guy watching the hostages end up downstairs? Why did no one ask about him literally ever? Why won't you just talk to each other and make a plan instead of running around, having supernatural adventures, coming up for a bit of sibling rivalry, go back down, see a few bodies, maybe go back to work on the escape route... All normal in the life a bank robber. I'm sorry can we just take a moment to act like our people are dying under the strangest and most gruesome circumstances and react like a normal person? I mean the brother goes down, sees his friend drill himself in the head, comes up, and he has the time, the will, the need, the urgency to reprimand his sister about being mean to a hostage?! I just cant...I'm not even going to dignify this piece of crap by rating it's scariness. This is not, and never had the potential to be a horror movie. The grand finale with the brother sacrificing himself to save his sister by burning ghosts?! This dimwit actually tried to burn ghosts that were already attacking his sister while he thought he was firebombing them in the previous room.You couldn't even write a proper scene between two sisters after they escape? Would she really take 67372903 hours before asking about her brother and breaking down crying? Was there no supervision in this set? Did this "director" guy take everyone hostage and made them shoot a movie and killed everyone who went "Umm?" ??Oh and the super evil masked robber can leave the bank for an appearance in "the audience has no idea the sisters are gonna die now" cut. Franco, you lost major cool points. I am never watching something because you're in it ever again. What a blindside. What a twist...
aark1996-597-626190 Caught this on the Flix last night. Big fan of James Franco, and was not disappointed. All the leads were great, and the screenplay was very tight. If you get a chance, watch this!! A really nice little independent film.
alexthomas-yk This movie falls into multiple genre and I think it succeeds in all of them. This movie works as action, thriller and horror movie. + Good cast, not all are well known but roles are well cast. + Every actor did their best even the extras. + writing and Direction is really good. + BGM matches very well and kinda acts as the catalyst to the whole situation accordingly. + There is qite a few twists at the end. + Very short movie, doesn't bore you. Never really unravelled the mystery of the masked robber.Leaves one or two loose ends.The script is done in such a way that you feel sorry for both the hostages and robbers. There is a backstory for everyone the bank, robbers, and the assistant bank manager played by James Franco but it takes it's time to show you what's what and who's who. I enjoyed this movie and never felt bored I was entertained very well.
