Haven: Directed by Frank E. Flowers. With Razaaq Adoti, Orlando Bloom, Agnes Bruckner, Joy Bryant. On Friday the 13th, different people meet on Grand Cayman – a US money launderer and his daughter, a lawyer, a young fisherman in love with a rich man’s daughter, other high school students, a crime gang etc.

“I saw the second screening of this film, at the Toronto Film Festival. It reminded me a little bit like the film u0026quot;Trafficu0026quot; with a hint of Quentin Tarantino. The movie threads together multiple story lines and shifts back and forth through time. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBill Paxton has a great performance as a shady business man who escapes with this daughter to the Cayman Islands. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eOrlando Bloomu0026#39;s character is the most endearing. I found I could relate to his character the most. Shy (Bloom) was the classic boy from the wrong side of the tracks, who is completely in love with the rich girl, Andrea (Zoe Saldana). u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eZoe Saldana has a great performance as well. Her character goes from a sweet girl who makes a complete 180 turn to a druggie /(how to put this politically correct) very easy girl.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eOverall I really enjoyed the movie. Frank E. Flowers did a really great job with his debut. The story was really intriguing and the setting was beautiful. A really well done film.”
