Almost good

It had potential, but the hardscrabble extra gritty subaltern working class shtick got really old fast. There is no reason for any of the things that happen to happen, if the characters had any common sense. There is no reason to make it a seriously proposed idea that a guy who is BALD would go THREE times to a barber shop and be offered a haircut, and not as a joke, but as a dramatic scene in which it is absurdly handled as if you could even GIVE a haircut to a bald person. ??? The violence is sometimes earned and natural, and other times absolutely unrealistic, as in it would only happen if sane characters went insane for 1 minute and and then right back to being totally sane with no explanation. The acting and dialogue are actually pretty good but the plot and motivations of the people are ridiculous and not believable. The best and absolute standout part of this is the shot on location scenes in the town where it was filmed. The old turn of the 20th century mid sized NY Hudson River city in the background is more interesting than anything else in the film, and that isn't what makes a good movie.

I'd only add one word to the rating...

WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD!! DUH ;D Still, I'd hate to get banned for not warning you. ;D

A rating of 1 on this site is "awful", or so it says! I'd only add one word to that in order for it to be completely fitting. The movie was _god_ awful. Surprising, too, considering some of the cast!

At first, I thought maybe it only struggled with direction (it was as if the directors were trying to say, "People, in general, lack total self-awareness,") but now I think it's just that the directors lacked the mental-fortitude!

Not five minutes into the movie you've got the main character buying a gift for someone who is neither 8 years old, NOR A BOY! Instead of apologizing and saying something appropriate, the guy sarcastically offers to buy (the clearly 14-15 yr old GIRL) CONDOMS. Yeesh!

This is prefaced with a prior interaction where there was a cashier so clearly uninterested in her job (CASHING what's his nuts out) that she appeared as if she didn't even know there WAS such an invention! So disillusioned with her job, was she, that she seemed like she was giving the camera the slowest eye roll in human history! Then again, the dude who bought the toy car doesn't seem to know where he's at when he asks ghetto-toys'r'us GIFT WRAP IT! Yikes! I probably would have slow-eyerolled, too!

Next up, there's the salsa dancing barber who is (FOR WHATEVER REASON) salsaing in the middle of the salon! It's never explained, never even touched upon, just spontaneous dance break!

And all of this goodness within the first ten minutes. The lack of self-awareness is key, but after twenty minutes watching these patched together and just as quickly orphaned sequences, I can see why people have rated this one so low! Actually, I'm a little clueless why it's rating this HIGH!

There are a billion and half other glaring issues as the "story" (and you'll use that word extremely flippantly, because at 105 minutes in (with just 20 to go) you'll really wonder where the story was!!). Obviously, it wasn't in the movie!

Strangely, with 88 reviews, RT has this at a 93% audience approved. At least IMDb is a little closer to true North. ;P We know what's up! And this movie was a real turd. ;D
