“I really like Maika, everything she is in is quirky and fun (THE GUEST, was awesome). The male lead was also great, as were the u0026quot;evilu0026quot; couple. The acting was so on point, and everyone was incredibly likeable, I think they made the film better than it otherwise wouldu0026#39;ve been!u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWith that said, the plot is kinda wonky, and itu0026#39;s nothing you havenu0026#39;t seen 100x itu0026#39;s kinda the typical, u0026quot;outlaws stumble upon a dangerous abodeu0026quot; type film.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAs much as Iu0026#39;m not a comedy fan really, if this was a straight up comedy, it wouldu0026#39;ve been AMAZING!! But…itu0026#39;s actually a crime/horror/drama/comedy. I believe it tried to be so much that it never really decided what to be. The beginning was light hearted and funny, the middle was a bit odd, but tries to be serious, and the final act it gets super dark out of no where.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eItu0026#39;s one of those movies that youu0026#39;re glad you saw but probably wonu0026#39;t watch again. I liked it, I wanted to love it.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eFind myself saying this fairly often, but this too wouldu0026#39;ve been a fantastic TV show.”
