CGiii Comment

Admittedly...the name Alec DeCoque is brilliant.

Great locations, expensive cars, impressive soundtrack, good production values (considering the budget) and rather impressive SFX (considering the budget)...

So, what happened? Well, the script/story is lousy, a mad hairdresser wants to take over all the salons in the world!

And, the cinematography is in need of improvement...less wonky angles, less close-ups and walking into focus is annoying.
