Just so...so bad
... View MoreThis story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
... View MoreEasily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
... View MoreThe film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
... View MoreI watched this film on a whim, didn't think much of it when I viewed a trailer of it. Let me tell you, although it does have some dramatic elements, 'K-11' was hilarious, especially during the beginning stages of the main character's introduction to a whole host of drug addicted inmates. Kate del Castillo (Mousey) was totally outrageous and fun to watch, trust me you'll understand why once you see her in action. Yes it was obvious K-11 was short on budget, but hey, they made due with what they had and did a good job considering. K-11 did not lack on the entertaining factor due to the various wacky characters, which is why I'm not bashing this film. I could guarantee you the cast had loads of laughs during filming. K-11 is not gratuitous, violent or vulgar as it could have been, but still manages to make you 'drop jaw' a few times throughout the film. So in my opinion, see K-11 for entertainment factor. So-called real film critics will pan this film, but don't let that sway you from viewing it. It's really not all that bad as they (real critics) may lead you to believe.
... View MoreI like the concept of how it was done and the story. Though, some scenes felt like that it was plain acting, it could have been done better or just more convincing? The Character's personality seemed inconstant at times too but I like their base character. Especially the person who played Butterfly (though I'm sad for her story...)!Also I was sure that Mousey had large junk in the shower scene, what happened to it?! (Even if she hides it, there has to be something if she wears a thong right?!) Also, that Blonde targeted Ray and then she just stopped?! Ray was so miserable with killing someone and then he is a bad ass in the end with a gangster driver?! (Or was he just sad that he killed a friend? I wish it was explained!) Plot holes people! I wish they had a time skip explaining how the person Ray killed died, if he got revenge on his ex-, or if he got Butterfly out and is caring her.Overall I enjoyed it.
... View MoreIt was really entertaining, I especially love how the bad guys get it in the end and the "better guy" (can't really call him the good guy because he isn't "good") tosses his illegal substances out of the window when he is released. LOVE the Mouse!! My daughter was confused because they had women playing 2 of the main (can't believe the word for biologically male ladies is prohibited!!) characters, but it works, they just look like REALLY authentic alternative persons. Butterfly was also one of my favorite characters, just wish someone would have stepped up and saved her, angered me that everyone around just let it happen and didn't do anything. It's suppose to be a safe unit for endangered populations and yet they put her in there with a child molester!! All in all great movie. Markus rocked too,
... View MoreI will write a review but what we have here is an amazingly American "pile on" by the press. What I realize after having seen K-11 is that virtually none of the critics who gave this film zero stars even saw it. If you see the term "CAMP" or "EXPLOITATION" or here them claiming "it couldn't decide what it was" you know that those critic's wrote a review on the trailer and not the film. This film has one problem only to them , Jules Stewart is Kristen Stewart's Mom . They cant get to Kristen so they attack Jules. They attack her even after Kristen was intentionally NOT cast in K-11 http://gawker.com/5990662/kristen-stewarts-mom-wanted- her-to-play-a-character-thats-raped-repeatedly. Interviewers will start asking about the film and then turn to Kristen , helpless in their own lack of imagination and drawn finally to a personality that blinds them to everything around them. Years from now when Kristen is no longer a young star people will re-examine this film. Kristen is not even in this film , intentionally. The press lie, that is what they do. K-11 is a straight film, not exploitation or camp. Portia Doubleday ,Goran Visnjic , DB Sweeny and most of all, Kate del Castillo, are brilliant. So what has the critics babbling ? They can't put it in a box. They use the term "its like " because they need something to compare it to. Its a great little film that you should compare to every great directors first films because it is vastly superior to Canmeron's "Piranha Part Two: The Spawning" ! Its an incredibly good first film. Making a film of this kind for a first time director is virtually impossible because everyone "knows better". Jules stuck to her guns, finally taking the film back from her first editor and recutting it to the original script. The films most memorable quote "Bad things happen to bad people" . If that were true a few critics here would spontaneously burst into flame. This is a great little film that stands on its own and the cast and crew did a terrific job.
