Belly of the Bulldog (2015) review

Posted : 6 years, 11 months ago on 2 June 2017 02:24

Initial Thought: I knew nothing going into this one. The premise is what caught my attention as I scrolled through Netflix. Plus it had a few names I was familiar with. I decided to give it a shot and see what's what.

Characters/Acting: I thought everyone did a decent enough job here. Nothing quite amazing, but nothing negative to say about them either.

Story: I don't even know where to begin here. It's something strange and different. Nothing is ever truly explained and pretty much only hinted at. That's the most frustrating bit. The concept of what they are trying to do is a good idea, but wow is it so poorly executed. It's not what I was expecting at all. The ending did nothing for me.

Directing/Writing: I have never heard of Nick Gillespie before this. I'm not sure I will be looking out for him after this either. His script is so incoherent. Better luck next time I guess.

Final Thoughts: The concept from the hints is unique. The only thing is we really get no why or anything like that. We just get what the characters get which is absolutely nothing. The acting is fine enough, but with a plot so messy it takes away what could have been a nice new watch. I would have to say skip this one.
