I just wanted to help him.

Warning: Spoilers
The bad guys are introduced by FBI (?) agents to a room of fellow agents we don't see. We get a Cliff Note's version of the bad guys and never see those agents who are after drug dealer J. Markeaur (Brandon Van Vliet) but instead we see a woman agent after them and later a couple of assassin characters they pull out of the blue, bring hired by another guy we really don't know. However, the story centers on Michael (Nathan Tymoshuk) the guy not introduced. He is brought in by Ian (Michael Borka) to be the fall guy for the murder of Markeaur's cousin. There are double crosses with deals and characters we have no ideal who they are either. The plot was not well constructed. The acting wasn't there, with supporting characters being downright "so bad it is good" funny. Ryan Kiser has done better. The bad guy lives on his own island and has a party where pretentious faux-famous people sit around and do coke all day. The entire film had that low budget "fakeness" to it, like when adult film stars pretend they can actually act and get into a real role. It seemed forced.

I did like the soundtrack which didn't match up too well with the film.

Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity on party island.

Dull, simple, predictable, boring

Dull, simple, predictable, boring. Another low rent production, predictable plot, etc., all in all comes to a waste of time. Indie movies are sometimes good but this one is pure low ball values, no real script, plot, low budget, etc. Low budget is no barrier to good work, but in this case, it is. Someone thought cool music tracks, "cool" visuals would cure a bad, low quality film production. Not so. Bad, bad, bad. Nothing to see here.
