Randy and The Mob

Good enough to be considered a quality movie.
I turned if off the first time after at the 20 minutes mark. A few days later I restarted (mover forward a few minutes perhaps). This turned out to be a very good quirky small budget comedy. Props to the writer, for such a complicated script, especially in the area of the protagonist and antagonist switch several times. The movie is character driven instead of plot driven (as most comedies are plot driven).The movie makes redemption possible for just about everyone involved in the story. Im glad I watched this it is a clinic for writers (im sure there are lessons for aspiring director and actors, etc as well because it is a fine movie). If you look odd but not over the top odd comedies wathc this but be warned the beginning is intentionally slow.

Southern Charm
"Gentle southern charm" comes to mind -- funny (if you "get it") and with a subtle message. Nothing hits you over the head, no explosions, no F-bombs, just a nice "feel good" fun movie. We loved it. Safe to watch with your Momma.

Cute
This was a cute, insightful drama about man named Randy who in order to impress his wife, goes into debt with the mob. The mobsters come for him when he is unable to make good the loan, sending a very odd mobster named Tino to claim the debt. Tino is funny at first, but after awhile I found him someone annoying and overdone.

I did think Randy's gay brother was very well done, and so were the other mobsters. While I wouldn't watch this one again, I still found it amusing enough.

3 stars.
