There once was a movie and it started of good…it had potential. It had promise, but then 10 minutes in, it had taken a turn somewhere that you would not expect it to go.
It turned into a plot less, pointless, boring movie with characters that offer little and a plot that offers even less.
3 stories which were supposed to merge into 1 – where none of them developed anything more than a mild interest in the beginning and a fizzle shortly after.
This was a movie that was free and I appreciated that, because had I paid, I would have been let down AGAIN!
Well, the movie had potential, I will give it that much.
However, and I put emphasis on however, the movie failed to deliver.
The nice part of the movie was that you saw different sides of the story as the came together, although a bit too far out there at times, but still it was what worked best for the movie.
Another nice thing about the movie was the music and score, very nice choice of music that went quite well with the movie.
As for the cast and their acting. Well don't expect award winning performances here, because you will be sorely disappointed. Now, some parts of the movie actually came off quite alright, but other parts were bordering on being annoying to watch or just downright irritating.
The storyline is fairly easy to follow, though it is suffering from some flaws and some parts that were just too hard to digest or fully believe in.
"Shoot the Hero" failed to captivate me, and I was left bored about three-quarters into the movie. I almost gave up on it, but stuck through with it, just for the sake of finishing it. This is not the type of movie that I will be returning to again for a second time. Once was more than enough.
In overall, the movie was well-intended but it failed to shine and failed to come through in a plausible manner. There are far better and far more interesting movies on the market, play it safe and put your money on something else.
I watched this last night and i gotta say it is AWESOME! Mike Hatton is Freaking hysterical in this and i hope to see more from this actor in the future!
If you are looking for a funny movie to just kick back and laugh with this one is for you!
This is just the kind of off the wall humor that i enjoy!
This is one that i can watch over and over and never get sick of it!
Mike Hatton is a great up and coming actor who has a comedic presents like which i haven't seen in a long time.Major Studios need to look at giving this guy some big roles in some big budget movies!
OK… where to start. The cinematography in this thing makes Blair Witch seem like a Steady-Cam epiphany. Did the director think he was clever waving the cameras in the air like a nut or was it to hide the incredibly bad acting…. They used one actor that I've seen before but his part was the shortest. Not that veterans are required but it may have helped this thing. The plot and sub plot are beyond implausible at best. I wish I could get my time back, I feel cheated. My daughter made a film as a second year PSU Film School that was leaps and bounds over this thing! I've often wondered where funding for such a terrible piece of work comes from.
