Watch Loosies For Free

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

What an awful film, I seriously can't believe how many people seem to inexplicably have liked this as shown here by the amount of positive reviews. The script was poorly written, misogynistic, clichéd, horribly paced, and just all around boring. At some points I just had to laugh at the beyond ridiculous lines and their abhorrently acted deliverance. If this wasn't the last straw after "Twilight" that banished Peter Facinelli to guest staring on B-rated TV, I don't know what was. I'm also sad to see Jamie Alexander relegated to this trite and uninspired piece, she deserves so much better. I hope no one ever has to suffer such a nauseatingly low budget feel, with horrid music choices, an awful script, and sadly unrealistic ending that made me feel no resolution or satisfaction. If I could give this zero stars I would.

It was just a normal evening of picking out a streaming Netflix flick to watch on my tablet at the same time I tinkered on my desktop computer. It was actually the second movie of the evening, and I didn't expect it to be enthralling - just good enough for me to pick - second.I loved it! I thought about it all day today, and smiled a lot at the nice moments. And it was also painful, thinking of how thoroughly sad Bobby's life was. All he had in his life was pick pocketing. And he could tell no one about that, hence he could have no friends. Not a single friend figured in the whole movie. He didn't show any interest in ball games, or music, or anything at all. Very, very sad to think that probably, there are people out there living his life.I couldn't wait to get home so I could watch it all over again, which I did. I really wanted to see a lot of the scenes again, knowing all that I had learned by the end of it. The story was fascinating to me, and I'm fascinated by the fact that the story was written by the main character. I never saw or heard of Peter Facinelli before, but I'd have to call myself a fan now. Really gotta see if he is as perfectly cast in other roles as he is in this one, and what else he has written or directed.Enjoyed it as much the second time as the first. And if I've reviewed a movie even once before in my life, I don't recall it. But I enjoyed this movie so much, I just had to make an exception, and offer my two thumbs up!

Don't know where to start. This is just poor quality, poor acting, unrealistic. I can't believe anyone sincerely gave this movie a good rating, I'll have to believe those votes/reviews come from people who made this movie and their friends. Even a soap opera has higher standards than this, I voted this 1 star, and similarly to the other review who warns you guys not to watch this.. I couldn't watch it all. fast forwarded many parts of this pathetic movie.IMDb is supposed to portray a realistic review of the movie, and a realistic voting... I hope in the future you can start to exclude the totally unrealistic votes/reviews. I know it's not always easy, but some extremes are easy to spot. Someone who gives a 8 to this movie, is simply... false.

LOOSIES is available to watch on Amazon, thank goodness, because while it is simultaneously in the theaters it just doesn't seem to be getting the promotion it deserves - like so many other art house films that take a while to build an audience, but then enjoy a faithful following. But this film is a real find: Peter Facinelli is known to everyone as the head of the Cullen Clan in the vampire TWILIGHT series and as the goofy delusional doc on the NURSE JACKIE TV series (and from roles in a lot of small films where he didn't get the notice he deserved). But who could tell that this tall stud muffin natural comedian could also write? Facinelli came up with the story and wrote the screenplay for LOOSIES and he also stars as the main character - and he is a hands-down winner in each category. Director Michael Corrente seems to let Facinelli have the film and he plays it to the hilt while at the same time molding into a solid ensemble of fine actors.Bobby (Peter Facinelli) is a young pickpocket in New York City, snatching wallets, cellphones, briefcases and money as slick as any pro could perform. He lives with his mother Rita (Marianne Leone, wife of Chris Cooper!) and follows his life of petty crime to pay off his recently deceased father's gambling debt. All his work is turned over to Jax (Vincent Gallo), a filthy clod of a guy who berates Peter's inability to go big time in theft. Bobby is a fairly happy-go-lucky guy until he accidentally encounters Lucy (Jaimie Alexander), a beautiful girl who works in a bar but who Booby happened to have a memorable one-night stand with three months ago. Lucy confronts Bobby, Bobby doesn't remember her name, and when Lucy informs him that their little tryst created a pregnancy, Booby tries to do the right thing and find the money to give Lucy to 'take care of the pregnancy'. This leads to a serious of crazy events: Bobby needs big money, mistakenly lifts a police badge form a cop (Michael Madsen) whose boss (William Forsythe) threatens to fire him unless he can get his badge back. The 'cops and robbers' scene plays out: Lucy doesn't want to be associated with a pickpocket despite the fact there is a newly rediscovered chemistry with the changing Bobby, Bobby resents his mother's finding a boyfriend Carl (Joe Pantoliano) who owns a jewelry store, but plans a gig with Jax to work a deal with Carl to get the cops off his tail and allow him to become the guy he really wants to be.How Bobby makes his way through this complex plot is the magic of the fine writing and the first class acting by the surprisingly hunky Facinelli. Jaimie Alexander is a terrific find, and the cameo roles by Vincent Gallo, Marianne Leone, Joe Pantoliano et al are beautifully realized. 'Loosies', by the way, is the term for loose cigarettes that people can but without investing in a pack. Seeing the film, titled so appropriately, will make the audience sit up and pay attention to Peter Facinelli in a totally new realm of respect. He is VERY good! Grady Harp
