This "film" is fishing bull-Jesus
Subversive-Commie2 January 2013
Warning: Spoilers
I use the term "film" loosely when describing this mess of a project. You can almost tell it was shot with the intention of creating a watchable movie, however everything about this steaming pile suggests otherwise. The "G-Rated" version I watched was laughable in itself: The "f*ck"s where replaced with "Fish" and the "sh*ts" were replaced with "Jesus" Cleavage, clothed bottoms, and simulated masturbation were blocked out with an annoying orb that never really blocked out anything.

I think it's safe to say this "film" is fishing bull-Jesus.

To understand why this thing reeks of Jesus we must first peer into the twisted mind of the director himself: George Anton. Chances are you stumbled across this gem on Youtube, where Anton has his own channel showcasing his... "indie" films. His logo is a near replica of the "Universal Studios" logo. Question him on this odd coincidence and he'll give some half-assed excuse and, if you're lucky, he'll insult your mother. Any negative comment on his video is instantly deleted and replaced with a comment by George Anton about how awesome George Anton is.

So, now that we got to know our director lets travel through the bowels of this masterpiece. What we're shown is akin to a foreigner's idea of "making it big in Hollywood" Our characters are models, producers, agents, actresses and... the mafia? Yes, "THE Mafia". The jist of the storyline is about a photographer who owes "the mafia" money due to a gambling problem. This same photographer takes head-shots of women for the mafia...? The leader of "the mafia" is a sleazy, yet wealthy scumbag who has three women all over him at once, coo-ing about how awesome their threesomes are and resulting in some of the most mind-numbing scenes even shot on camera. I think the director fails to understand what a "G-Rating" even means.

We are further introduced to an array of similarly idiotic characters that end up having no real effect on the course of events. I really don't recommend this to anyone who has eyes.

Very useful movie for Hollywood agents

Seriously, the credits are "never to be hired" list of folks. Please avoid every single of them as they have zero talent. Not a single participant had any quality. I mean I saw several birthday home videos that had better plot, better effects and way better technical quality. I saw better combat scenes over a dish of smashed potatoes in a kindergarten. I have serious doubts that my own cat could write better script than this. It is really worse than just a random collection of lines! I have to point out the incredible lows of technical quality of the movie. If this should be remembered for some reason it is its incredibly poor sound quality. It is technically very pathetic. The "sound engineer" probably never mixed even his home sound tapes as he does not know very basic rules of his art.

The guy responsible for the sound track must be on drugs or mentally retarded or something like that. There is not a single moment where the incredibly poor music soundtrack would match what is going on on the screen. The audio cuts are absolutely abrupt, the best way how to describe this mess is a mixed salad or something like that.

The "G" rated "fishing" version is especially bizarre. The only real reason behind this pile of steaming cr*p is that the director probably needed an excuse for audition of some chicks. Well I can see that. Some of them are not half bad. But all the technical folks should be blacklisted forever. Now.
