Not an interesting or fun movie., 8 August 2009
4/10
Author: nathan-yeo from United States

At the beginning of the movie, the Squeegie kid/ kid-nappers, were trying to flee some rival Squeegie kids / or Squeegie enforcers. That would have been a more interesting story than this one.

I'm always down for a taught psychological suspenseful thriller. And any film cover that has a woman tied to a chair while another woman holds the rope, well I'm down for some lesbo S&M (BOUND) bondage as well as the next guy. Howeva this film had none of the afore-mentioned in it. Yes it was well written well acted well shot, but boring. Hhe hostage 'helsinki thang" well if you've seen "DOG DAY AFTERNOON" you know how Captives identify with their Captors. The big chunk of of RED-WOOD RED-NECK HILL-BILLY MAN-MEAT, that shows-up specifically to confront the girl that cut him and robbed him the other night. Well I've gone thru worse than that for a piece of "strange". I'd call that robbing, fore-play. real pros, play in pain. The problem is the three main characters or boring, they're boring some violent drug addicted teens trying to flee the city, kidnap some rich woman in a committed lesbian relationship, and hold her hostage. There is no "COME TO Jesus MOMENT" no daring retrospective or stories of hustling or abuse. It's just a boring movie a well-done but boring movie.
