Just a great movie. The performances were witty and dark. The film is well directed. It is a noir drenched treat. The story line had me and I just loved it. Director Konkle knows what he is doing here. Brittney Powell gives the best performance Ive seen her give. David Beeler is outstanding as Lew a character of surprising levels. All the technical limitations of what must have been a small budget transcend. The tone the effort is a complete joy to watchIts a treat and well worth a look.

I'm all for supporting struggling independent film companies, directors, actors, and the like. I salute those folks that are out there fighting the good fight. But, sometimes when you fight, you lose. And this is definitely a lost fight. The film's premise is good. But, that's about it. The film starts off a little bad and proceeds to become excruciatingly lousy. I'm not trying to be hateful or disrespectful towards the filmmakers. They probably put their hearts and souls into this project and I really do salute their efforts. However, in my opinion, nothing really works in this film (except for a few well-lit shots). Nice idea. Failure of a film.

\So the people who made this are getting flamed with harsh rating etc because we are new here trying to help it and people decide to scare everyone away from watching the film because the low rating reviewers are mean and petty. At a screening and online this week the filmmaker asked audiences to sign up for IMDB and rate it if you liked it. Which I am doing now, but I discovered that they are getting the opposite effect as it seems like people are deciding people like me who like it must be "fake" because we are new or like it and the opposite is happening for the film comments and ratings are ridiculously low which is sad. So is it people who haven't seen the film are purposely punishing it with crappy reviews for being liked by people trying to help who dont do this crap usually and that sucks. The story and movie are professional and I liked it. Did they see it. Are they screwing over these people just because they can? I bet they never watched the movie at all because the bad reviews have not one detail just ripping this movie or people a new one. no one could be coming here on week could just give a shoutout? it just started showing and deserves some help cause its good and they explained how they made it with what they could at the Q&A So user reviewers decide this doesnt deserve a chance so they scare people off with review comments I guess. This is the only review Im bothering with to help them out. I liked the movie, the look of it, the sound the acting and stuff are good.I am QUITE sure this is the opposite effect than when the director and people at the screening intended to have it appeciated gets it flamed hard I went to said please sign up and write a review. I don't normally do it but frankly I liked it. I liked the Roland Drake story and how they created a noir story of him falling for a woman who might be very bad for everyone. The whole diamond and information themes were cool. The movie is fun and well acted so I don't get the hate but I guess no one figures we who don't live on this website would show up to help out the little guys who made a good movie.It doesn't deserve the hate its not awful at all, i don't do review stuff but I was motivated when I read the crappy comments to think that's the opposite of their well intentioned online plea to have me comment and rate if i liked it. Guess some users are as mean and cynical as...a noir It work a cheap online rental, the crowd I saw it with loved it and get the black and white discs which I think are even cooler to watch

Yeah, what a load of crap! Fooled me with a jargon of "Neo Noir". You don't have to be that stupid to use some saxophone soundtrack to tell people this film is a NOIR, NOIR, NOIR. The private eye does not have to be always in a jam, down and out in L.A. and couldn't afford the rent and got 30 days pay or out eviction notice. Jesus, this film just looked so pathetically pretentious and ridiculous. More like adapted from a lousy comic book or a children's book. A horrible fantasy for the brain dead adults. Absurd screenplay, scenarios and plots. Nothing is right. A complete waste of time. Like watched a lousy poor staged play in a theater. Characters are all comic, over-the-top costumes and make up. A missing person case or several murder cases, who cares! Don't forget to pay your 2017 income tax and your property tax before the deadlines, they are more important than wasting your time and money to watch this stupid Neo Noir film.
