CGiii Comment
Considering the on-screen talent, it's not a bad film...it's a terrible film.
Some actors were born to act...not to write nor direct, Mr Duval is one such actor. If this is anything to go by, he obviously absorbed nothing from his previous experiences as a director...or, even as an actor.
This also stinks of nepotism - Luciana Duval (nee Pedraza) is Mr Duval's talentless wife. Her performance is stiffer than starched cardboard...to her credit, the lines she was given weren't worth uttering - still, nepotism is a crime when there is no talent to back it up.
Franco - playing gay again - and Harnett deliver competent performances in the face of such extravagant incompetency...
Duval's performance is - quite possibly - a career nadir - matching his wife's stiffness.
The car chase and the fight sequence are the epitome of amateurism...laughably bad. But, alas, this is not a comedy.
A dire example of an aged ego let loose...Mr Duval you have disappointed many people...bitterly so.
Trailer...
The(ir) Blurb...
A detective opens up a fifteen-year-old missing persons case and begins to suspect that the boy it belongs to was murdered - and that a local rancher was involved.
