It has a reasonably solid, if not blazingly original, premise, a more-than-solid cast, made with enough style to make for a reasonably diverting 100 minutes, but it never quite manages to be anything more than that.

As an aging Albanian nightclub owner, Crowe proves consistently delightful even when the material lets him down.

Despite its narratively and thematically intriguing set-up, the film is too sluggishly paced and anonymously shot to fully become the outrageous farce with a heart of gold it occasionally promises to be.

I have no doubt this is what The Get Out co-writer and director Derrick Borte thought he was making – considering he references Tarantino at one point, I'd guess Jackie Brown was more specifically the guiding light. But even with leading man Russell Crowe, who is the only member of this solid cast who strikes the right tone, this film just can't get there. In addition to dialogue that isn't nearly strong enough to conjure the quirky specificity that powers the best examples of this kind of movie, the rhythm of its delivery is off in a way that just isn't possible to fully recover from.

Action scenes are rendered with zero tension, comedy scenes with barely any sense of pacing; the film is so unadventurous you’re practically begging for an expected split screen or any flourish to spice things up.

Russell Crowe starred in Derrick Borte’s excellent “Unhinged” (my 5-star review) in 2020, but the COVID release date kept it from being appreciated. They’ve teamed up again with Crowe playing a nightclub owner whose ready to retire. Meanwhile, a man in debt (Aaron Paul) is desperate to pay it off and robs Crowe’s character, which sets off the plot. There’s also the guy who wants to buy the business (Luke Evans). All of this plays out without much dramatic tension or narrative surprise. Borte knows how to stage encounters with interesting vibes and there are enjoyable interactions. Crowe is having fun with his Albian accent and usual charisma, while the rest of the cast is equally effective. This isn’t as gripping as “Unhinged.” There’s constant pressure, but it doesn’t build to a satisfying conclusion in the plot or action.
