Ruined in the public eye and with the police. it seems like it's all over for Roland Drake. Then, redemption walks in - with curves. The owner of those curves is a sexy, dark haired beauty named Katherine Montemar. She wants his help.

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

I discovered the film on iTunes and fandango and being a fan of the genre I thought I'd give it a look. my background is in teaching drama and I know it's quite difficult to do anything in that particular genre as it is by nature a mannered and particular style. You are either on board for the more clever than real life actions and dialogue of characters or notThe storytelling in this film is clearly taken from the inspiration of the 30s and 40s pulp. If you don't like the stylistic performances and certainly stylistic look up with some like this don't bother but if you appreciate it and you certainly enjoy Noir Cinema this reveals a treasure trove of double entendre's symbolism and meaning and wonderfully hard boiled dialogue with humor I believe the ensemble of actors did an amazing job with each character having humor and depth often with the sinister dark edge performances were first rate. I liked the main character role and drake a world weary, very Harrison Ford-esque character who carried the movie all the women were uniformly good in particular Brittney Powell brought a delicate menace and sexuality to her performance. Knowing it's a low-budget film I was astounded by the ambition the reach the technical credits and ability it bodes well for low budget cinema that something like this could even get made Powell's is a terrific performance as a classic femme fatale and the rest Of the ensemble brought their characters beautifully to light and darkness with humor and surprising depth I had a thoroughly good time watching this movie. Highly recommend beautiful some Tiger fee and direction most of all terrific performances from the cash that is really enjoying themselves

\So the people who made this are getting flamed with harsh rating etc because we are new here trying to help it and people decide to scare everyone away from watching the film because the low rating reviewers are mean and petty. At a screening and online this week the filmmaker asked audiences to sign up for IMDB and rate it if you liked it. Which I am doing now, but I discovered that they are getting the opposite effect as it seems like people are deciding people like me who like it must be "fake" because we are new or like it and the opposite is happening for the film comments and ratings are ridiculously low which is sad. So is it people who haven't seen the film are purposely punishing it with crappy reviews for being liked by people trying to help who dont do this crap usually and that sucks. The story and movie are professional and I liked it. Did they see it. Are they screwing over these people just because they can? I bet they never watched the movie at all because the bad reviews have not one detail just ripping this movie or people a new one. no one could be coming here on week could just give a shoutout? it just started showing and deserves some help cause its good and they explained how they made it with what they could at the Q&A So user reviewers decide this doesnt deserve a chance so they scare people off with review comments I guess. This is the only review Im bothering with to help them out. I liked the movie, the look of it, the sound the acting and stuff are good.I am QUITE sure this is the opposite effect than when the director and people at the screening intended to have it appeciated gets it flamed hard I went to said please sign up and write a review. I don't normally do it but frankly I liked it. I liked the Roland Drake story and how they created a noir story of him falling for a woman who might be very bad for everyone. The whole diamond and information themes were cool. The movie is fun and well acted so I don't get the hate but I guess no one figures we who don't live on this website would show up to help out the little guys who made a good movie.It doesn't deserve the hate its not awful at all, i don't do review stuff but I was motivated when I read the crappy comments to think that's the opposite of their well intentioned online plea to have me comment and rate if i liked it. Guess some users are as mean and cynical as...a noir It work a cheap online rental, the crowd I saw it with loved it and get the black and white discs which I think are even cooler to watch

Yeah, what a load of crap! Fooled me with a jargon of "Neo Noir". You don't have to be that stupid to use some saxophone soundtrack to tell people this film is a NOIR, NOIR, NOIR. The private eye does not have to be always in a jam, down and out in L.A. and couldn't afford the rent and got 30 days pay or out eviction notice. Jesus, this film just looked so pathetically pretentious and ridiculous. More like adapted from a lousy comic book or a children's book. A horrible fantasy for the brain dead adults. Absurd screenplay, scenarios and plots. Nothing is right. A complete waste of time. Like watched a lousy poor staged play in a theater. Characters are all comic, over-the-top costumes and make up. A missing person case or several murder cases, who cares! Don't forget to pay your 2017 income tax and your property tax before the deadlines, they are more important than wasting your time and money to watch this stupid Neo Noir film.
