Pleasantly Surprised

Blucas went to the same high school I did, and so, in some rare act of hometown patriotism, I figured I'd check it out. I expected crap, not being a fan of the whole Buffy thing and not really seeing him in anything else. But I was pretty surprised, I really enjoyed the movie. Blucas's acting was quite good, and really shined through during the more intense moments. I had something of an idea of the ending of the movie early on in the film, but the actual ending still held a few surprises.

The rest of the movie was pretty good as well. Nobody really had terrific acting, but nobody did a bad job either. The production could have been a little better, no major flaws to point out, just, you could tell it wasn't a big-budget movie. I'd rank is above a "B" movie, but not by a whole whole lot.

Now that I look, the movie has no listed rating yet, but I think it'll definitely receive and R purely for language. What bothers me about that, and it by no means hurt the movie, but it irked me, was that with all the F-bombs being thrown around, there isn't even an ass through the entire movie (even during the sex scene). Also, aside from a few very mild fights, there really is no blood or gore or anything like that either. If you're going to go for an R rating, why not go all the way? By removing half a dozen curses, they probably could have gotten away with PG-13, but they didn't, so why skimp on all the other R-rated perks? Overall, I would for sure recommend watching it if you get the chance. Pretty decent flick.

Cheers.
