Brothers in arms

I wrote something very long about this movie that was really proud of and Letterboxd just erased it for no reason in the middle of me typing. I'm pissed so to keep it short, look up what this movie is and how limited the release of this movie is and how shockingly small its box office return is. I'm shocked this even came anywhere remotely near me. It's a cheap pile of garbage with bad acting and cinematography. If this felt more like a British comedy then it'd be way funnier. Started to get bored halfway through and tired of it. Ending is abrupt as hell. That's it I think, I don't know. Good movie.

Stealing comedy

Holding the body of Charlie Chaplin ransom, two brothers in over their heads are the core focus of this feature from Paul Tanter. Stealing Chaplin sets out to display two brothers, Cal (Simon Phillips) and Terry (Doug Phillips), who do just that. They steal the body of Charlie Chaplin. Rather straightforward, but in practice, it proves rather difficult, not just for the brothers but for the director as well. How can an audience be expected to care for characters who are seen as uncharismatic conmen at the best of times, and layabout losers with money troubles and gangster woes at worst? Likeability is the key, but Tanter just doesn't have that for this duo.
