Best movie of this year hands down!
It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
In all honesty, let me start by saying several of my guests looked on in disgust and concern while asking me to stop this movie. It really was that bad. Even though some of the cast has found minor success on the catastrophe known as cable television, there is absolutely no excuse for this movie being made. However much money was squandered making this terrible, terrible film, could have been spent on whiskey and prostitutes. This movie is like the holocaust in that somebody should have done something to stop it only nobody did. First of all, despite having used the same cameras that shot Steven Soderbergh's "Che", which was a masterpiece and pioneer of independent film making - this movie looks like something shot on a camcorder from the eighties. The characters and dialog were positively too cheesy not to shave off an I.Q. point or two. Unless you mistake it for one of those Adult Swim-type, "It's so bad it must be on purpose"-style comedies. I'll end by saying that on a positive note, this movie could possibly be used in the future to show aspiring film makers how not to make movies.
Simple words and phrases are how I describe this film. No Fat and Crap that is what today's theaters are full of so much. The best and worst of the film are clearly seen throughout. The thing that the film lacked was a Director. Looked him up and found that he was not up for this script. With an average Director, this could have been at the theaters. Now the good stuff: : The camera work, lighting, angles were good and it has a dark flavor that fits the film. : The Lukas character was someone that grew on you as the story goes along. The big thug killer was good and as advertised. The guy looked big and mean. : The Make-up was a little better than good and it was like a real experienceThe Really good stuff: : The girlfriends and side kicks of the main characters were really good. The cops had ups and downs with scenes but if you buy the concept then : The medical guy was really good and almost a comic relief. : Locations were nice in that you moved into each location with ease and you were interested in each one of them.The Great stuff: : Almost all of the leads were great in their roles. : The script was great and could actually have a sequel. ( I would like to see one ) : Music was great and fit the show in a great way. Unheard of artists and the title song was cool.The Best stuff: : Cowboy Jack ( If you have not seen the film, see it for this guy )All in allCreative Fun Exciting New Fresh Different
Yes, I was drawn to this film by the poster. I had not heard of this title and it seemed to keep my interest as I looked at the cover on-line. Personally, I detest hype and the American machine of selling movies from spicy advertisements that hardly live up to their 2 minutes of flash and boom. I am pleased to write this as I have never written a comment other than a reply to blogs in the past. I did read the reviews of this picture and I am very pleased that I chose to watch this film. 3 Days Gone is a modern day story that makes you sit in the back seat of a taxi and suddenly the driver locks all the doors. You are alarmed by this but you try to remain calm as you watch the cab slowly pick up speed. You are approaching 300 K's per hour and the driver opens the door and jumps out leaving you to crash and burn. It felt like sort of an exciting panic watching 3 Days Gone, I found myself talking to the characters in the film out loud. The story is not like other films that I have seen and the camera work is dark and stylistic. Not seeing much direction of the film did not detract from the entire piece but it could have been better. In the reviews of this film, you read about the acting performances as being good but watching the film is the only way to describe the Cowboy. The name Cowboy Jack when you read it is not what had come to my mind. This character seduces you from the moment that he comes to the screen. Being the main reason that I am writing this review is Cowboy Jack and I will search for other films that this actor has been in for this movie alone. I will stop there with Cowboy Jack as I hate to read reviews that spoil a movie so I will highly recommend this film and say that I had a most exhilarating ride with this film 3 Days Gone and I am buying it for friends as a gift this holiday season.
The film was something that I did not expect as I was just trying to relax with something new. The writing was better than most films today in that I did not figure it out. There were many twists and turns in this film but the Directing was what made the film an 8 out of 10. The camera work was really good and only a few lemons as actors throughout the entire flick. It made me think of TRAFFIC and the seedy and dark world that pulls you in and drags you down to it's level. At the same time, the film had many characters that were exactly where they needed to be so that it seemed like you were on the screen with them. Michelle was better in this than anything that I have ever seen her do. This should be a breakout role for Patrick Adams in that he is soooooo good in this film. The reason to watch this film can be summed up in two words: COWBOY JACK! This is a fact and this film is worth buying for Charles Wesley's performance in this film. Being conservative and with a bit of humility: " I want to dance for him at his bar TONIGHT!"
