Review of Gun Hill Road (2011) by Kevin J — 18 Jan 2012

I get why it lasted but a few weeks and had a limited run! While the character of Michael had a beautiful sweetness that came through which was about the actor Harmony, the acting, overalI, was AWFUL!!! The story... well there was none really. Several story ideas are presented and never resolved which is always frustrating. It quasi story told was CLICHE and simply not compelling enough! The dialogue and action, Predictable. This was right along the lines of films like Empire and Illegal Tender. We don't support our films because most of them feel dated and have nothing to say. Where are our great writers and directors. Please come out, I know you're out there!!! I don?t get how films like this get made but I do get why there is no market for Latino films. As long as we continue to put out films whose only purpose appears to be push stereotypes, I don?t expect a change.

Rosa.
