Only worth it because of Bruce Campbell!

Normally, I don't even bother with TV movies like this. I mean, usually, they are a poor adaptation of the true events and very biased. But, one of the leads is Bruce Campbell. How can you not pay attention when he is involved?And like I predicted, he certainly elevates the viewing experience. Despite him being bogged down by other factors. For whatever reason, Lori Loughlin is first billed. Sure, she was huge when Full House was around. But her being a bigger star than Bruce Campbell? That is insanity. He himself doesn't seem to mind her character to be the brains of the operation, even when she clearly is unstable and unhinged. This story is based on the true story of Jeffrey and Jill Erickson. Not going to lie, I don't care. For me, it's more compelling what motivates characters to commit crimes like these and especially why they keep doing them even when they don't have to. This film implies, they were doing it for the rush. Then later they were doing it to keep up with their lifestyle. Yet, Jill was not feeling so great about doing them, even when I suspect these heists were her idea. Bruce gives as much depth as he can to Jeffrey. He obviously cares a lot about Jill. But, like any husband, wants to please his wife as much as possible.Bruce is very serious and shows that he certainly is capable of good acting when he forsakes the campiness. However, it's unfortunate that he is not given the opportunity to do more than he is capable of.Again, I really don't understand why Lori Loughlin is awarded such prominence. Apart from her looks she is an average actress. This is demonstrated in On Call (2025). She is decent. But nothing more.Overall, this film is only worth it because of Bruce Campbell. But this is not a tile I can recommend.

A little repetitive

Another in the IN THE LINE OF DUTY TV series, thie time around focusing on a modern-day Bonnie & Clyde who commit a series of armed bank robberies. Lori Loughlin and Bruce Campbell star, and it's particularly amusing/enjoyable to see the latter star stepping away from his horror career to do something more thriller-y. He's as earnest as ever, as are the rest of the cast, although the show sticks to cliche and feels average despite the occasional ferocity of the subject matter; perhaps it's simply a little too repetitive.
