What saves this film from total boredom is the use of humour. The characters are all somewhat offbeat an don't always take the right decisions in the strange situations there in. And then you have the head character saying quotes every time he finds himself stuck in a weird situation. Not that all of this makes a great film: story is to generic, the final twist doesn't really work, mix of humour and violence should have been darker...But hey if you simply want a fast paced action film with some humour, this film will do the job. Nothing more, nothing less.

I am always suspicious about a movie when writer/director/producer is a same person....only thing worse is if he is also acting ! This action/comedy/crime/horror movie has a very badly written story line, and nothing can help to correct that. A kidnapped woman kisses the person who organized her kidnapping and hired her kidnappers .....really ? There is no closure at the end, in real life everybody should go to jail for long time...even the victim, Alex, because she killed one of the kidnapper with scissors !

There are so many movie's today that rely heavily on a gimmick to impress - As an audience we want something new, and from time to time we'll gladly take something old as long as it inventive in some form. With Director Eric England's (Contracted) "Get the Girl", we may not get anything new - but we do get a fun paced thriller packed with twists you might see coming and characters that even Tarantino himself might take a nod."Get the Girl" starts with a simple premise - A wealthy young man (Justin Dobies) falls in love with a girl (Elizabeth Whitson). Love at first sight, allegedly. Only thing is - she doesn't know he exist, despite the fact that he comes each night during her shift - Just to see her! He's then manipulated by Patrick (Noah Segan) into a fake kidnapping in order to win her affection. Of course things go horribly wrong all around the board.Eric England crafts a fun story with a few thrills and perhaps a few unseen twists and turns along the way to keep you busy. Our proposed hero - Clarence is rather dull and timid, with constant voice overs that remind you of Jessie Eisenberg's "Zombieland". The real hero of this story and perhaps fun character to stay with throughout the 1h 27 mark is Adi Shankar as KJ - Adi Shankar is hilariously brilliant in every scene he's in, you'll probably wish he had more to do though. Noah Segan (Looper) is also very good.Overall this is a movie worth watching, despite a formula you've probably seen one to many times before.

Get the Girl (2017): Crime Comedies can only work if it has great humor despite of violent situations.Be it a murder or a heist or a kidnap,all the crime comedies only goal is to give an ample dose of humor.Get the Girl is one such crime comedy released this year on net and let us see how it is..Plot:A wealthy young man Clarence (Justin Dobies) is conned into staging a fake kidnapping with the help of Patrick (Noah Segan) in order to be a hero and win the affection of a girl he's madly in love with Alex (Elizabeth Whitson). But when one of the hired kidnappers is accidentally killed during the charade, he's forced to actually save her life while not revealing that it's been a ruse all along.Plus Points:1)Comedy: Get the Girl has some good comedy which really helped the movie.Even with so much gore and blood,it never seems disturbing only because of the comedy provided at uneven situations.There are good LOL moments in this movie.2)Performances: Elizabeth Whitson as Alex is very good in her role.Justin and Noah Segan are awesome and formed a good duo.3)Twist at the Pre-Climax: Not the Climax one..Not at all !! The twist which shows up at pre-climax is so good and really is surprising.Minus Points:1)Lame Climax: With a good twist at pre-climax,movie could have been better but they gave another lame twist at the end which spoiled the entire feel of the movie.Climax is so poor.So,Get the Girl is a decent crime comedy with good performances and few hilarious scenes,My rating 6/10
