O.k., an Hispanic business man with ties to the mob, married to a bleach blond skinny coked out looking white chick in the 80's-hey that sounds a little like Scarface! Well, that's where the similarities end. I'm having a really hard time seeing why this movie has 7.1 on IMDb. My main problem is that this movie presents itself as a violent mob drama. I saw the trailers and was excited to see this movie become available to stream, so I sat through it and waited. I waited and waited for the violence. I don't need violence in every movie, I like dramas, good ones anyway, and this one isn't. But it has the word violence in the title. Is this some sort of ironic title? I will answer that and say yes it is, whether intended or not.

I just didn't believe these characters-that added to the fact they were not interesting in the least-I've sat though Lifetime movies that were more compelling. I don't think the acting is bad, it's just ultimately an extremely banal story with no climax, or any kind of gestalt to make some kind of point. It just drones on and on as you wait for something exciting or interesting. How about a good old emotion or two, that would have been cool. There are a couple of scenes that try to be exciting, wow a car chase! He's pulling out a gun and ... oh he's putting it away without shooting it. The characters just don't really grab you, and the story is preposterous. J.C. Candor must have paid people to like this movie because I don't get what is so great about it! The most misleading title ever. I like a slow-burn, but this thing is a smoldering pile of poo.
