Synopsis:

From IMDb: “On the day before his wedding, retired criminal Jos wakes up next to a murdered man with no recollection of what happened the night before. He soon discovers that a group of gangsters have pinned him as the lone suspect in the theft of 20 kilos of coke. He’s got to get it back in 24 hours, or the life of his bride will be in serious danger. Now he has no choice but to creep back into his dangerous old world of petty thieves and drug dealers – all before his wedding the next day.”

Poster: B- / B-

Review: I’m not really sure where the bowling alley comes into the equation. I don’t recall seeing it in the trailer. Regardless, the two designs are unoriginal, but interesting. They try to play the film off as something unique, an inspiration drawn from the cheesy action films of the 1970’s.

Trailer: C

Review: The trailer expands on the aesthetic established in the posters, conjuring images of exploitation films of the past, suggesting a film that may be a lot more fun than how it reads on paper. That said, the action and comedy in the trailer aren’t terribly engaging and the concept wears thin very quickly.

Oscar Prospects:

None.
