    I’ll tell you right effing now, this film wouldn’t be as good as it is without Diane Cilento and Frank Silvera. 

    The first half had me rolling my eyes because my boy, Paul Newman was wearing a wig, playing an Apache, and I thought this was gonna be John Wayne playing Genghis Khan all over again. 

    Then, the second half had me absolutely hooked. I settled into Paul’s short, calculated, direct dialog and the moment Frank Silvera hit the screen…

    Shout out to my friend Justin Perry for having his first feature film debut as Magazine Editor. I love celebrating wins with friends, while sitting next to him, shouting everytime he’s on screen. Haha.

    I don’t understand why this film is getting such hate. I found it to be laugh out loud funny!! People be gettin’ too deep sometimes. 

    A nice mix of Wes Anderson style cinematography, production design, and wardrobe. A dash of Napoleon Dynamite’s charm and innocence, plus straight Adam McKay’s Anchorman raunchy comedy. 

    It felt like Owen Wilson was shooting Bottle Rocket again, and enjoying every minute of filming this quirky, fun indie.

    I forgot how fucked up this movie is. Got dayyyum….

    Side note, I’m all for a theatrical re-release, but the post credit interviewer wearing shorts with his suit top was the most heinous thing I saw, and I saw some heinous shit.
