Far from Perfect, Far from Terrible
... View MoreInstead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
... View MoreClever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.
... View MoreIn truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
... View MoreThis is a low budget drama that centers around Bonnie Parker (Ashley Hayes). It starts with her first failed marriage and her love for "bad boys." There is significant first person narration from Bonnie as she reads poetry from her diary. Eric Roberts appears as the sheriff who killed the couple. While his role was brief, the film capitalized on it by showing the clip at the beginning and the end. Plot Spoiler: They die.The film is exceedingly low budget. It does not show any robberies, just headlines. In fact the money they show is only a partial view of the corners. The one 50 dollar bill corner has a huge 50 and is clearly a modern bill. Gun fire and bullets hitting the vehicle are CG. The acting is fairly sad too.A more entertaining film (slightly less accurate) would be "Bonnie and Clyde vs. Dracula."Parental Guide: No f-bombs, sex, or nudity. Dressed couple in bed morning after.Some sexual innuendos such as the postman "delivering big packages in the rear."
... View MoreThis is by far the worst movie I have seen The acting was awful, the effects were awful and the action was guess what. Awful! No seriously this movie could have been made by a bunch of five year old kids who have a fond taste for American history. The effects are embarrassing for example at one point in it shot are being fired at Clydes car and they are flashing his leather roof. Furthermore, the film was half full of really dull picture montages in black and white. And finally the props were awful in one point Clyde points a gun at someone but the only problem it the barrel isn't hollow.Do not watch this film unless you want to be bored out of your mind for 85 minutes
... View MoreNot since Pippi Longstockings have a sat through a more dreadful movie. HORRID. Sad because the two lead actors have potential to do some very good work. I've seen high school plays in rural North Dakota that had more of a budget than this movie. The same quarter mile stretch of road used over and over again from different angles. Prop guns were horrible, you could see the plugs in the barrels half the time, the other half of the time they were so clearly stage props they looked like they were stolen from a college theater department. The "special effects" of gunfire and bullets supposedly striking objects were so sad. I love the scene with the prison super imposed on a mountain range....laughable if it weren't so sad. Monster power line towers also visible in a number of scenes...in one, it is almost like the camera man realized it and just panned the camera slightly to get it out of frame. Last but certainly not least, the opening scene suggests that the story was taking place in Louisiana and it was clearly a totally different climate and geography...looked like California. Repetitive use of "antiqued" photos of the actors and different buildings that were so obviously "movie set" buildings....stop me or I'll go on forever.Don't waste your time...but if there is an agent out there, a producer with some juice and a director worth his or her salt...snatch up these two lead actors and give them a little mentoring.
... View MoreA truly dreadful remake. The action is non-existent which in such a dramatic and action packed story is beyond belief. In close up sepia stills (which take up a significant part of the film) you can clearly see that the guns are fake, and poor ones at that with no hole in the muzzle. Got bored well before the end and switched off before it got any worse!Apparently I need to write more lines of text, so I will use those lines to pay homage to the Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway 1967 film of the same title, which even though it was filmed forty six years earlier than this 2013 effort, is far superior in every single way.
