Review of Rick (2003) by Caleb M — 22 Mar 2011

Rick is an asshole who deserves what he's about to get after humiliating an asian woman who was just wanting a job. In the interview he systematically leads her on and insults her. When he goes to a club, she happens to be his waitress and he still insults her again.

This time she doesn't take it anymore and puts a curse on him. Also there's Rick's daughter Eve, who has cyber sex with Rick's much younger boss, Duke, played by Aaron Stanford. When Rick and Eve go to a business party Duke assumes that Eve is Rick's wife and immediately wants to bang her and does.

I don't want to spoil too much, but it's sad to what else also happens to Eve. I'll just leave it at that. Also there's Buck, Rick's College buddy who has his own business: Killing business competitors.

I thought that was funny. He's played by Dylan Baker. He does a good job. They all did an excellent job at being rotten. With the acting aside, I must also praise the cinematography which looked beautiful.

Don't expect to like the story of this film because it's not something to like. It is however a film of cruel, backstabbing and loathsome characters which I couldn't care for except to feel glad I wasn't them.

So, when you're watching this film just feel thankful that you're not like Rick.
