Sollers Point

McCaul Lombardi stars here as Keith, finishing up a 9 months of home detention after a prison stretch. He's living with his father (Jim Belushi), in Baltimore, with whom he has a strained relationship.

As with many other films of this genre, Keith will have to decide whether to accept some help from other family members and go back to school, or somehow slide back into his old trouble prone ways. You want to root for him, but he sure doesn't make it easy for you, with his, at times, volatile and impulsive actions.

Overall, the movie, written and directed by Matthew Porterfield (Putty Hill) , is carried along by its believable realistic characters and elements, and I was engaged enough to want to know how this was all going to turn out. However, don't expect any easy answers here or things to be eventually all "wrapped up in a neat bow".

Dull as dishwater and just as boring. Not sure what the point of this is. Belushi must have been good friends with someone to appear in this, or they asked him on a slow Friday night. When did it become ok to do movies without a plot and good script? Certainly it's great to step outside the norm and try new things but this is not that. Move along, nothing to see here.

No plot, no script don't know what James Belushi got paid but they should have spent it on a writer.

I'm not sure what the other reviewers were expecting, but this is an all-too-accurate tale of a ex-con who has come home to face his demons, while he tries to make a new life. No, there are no "superheroes" and no CGI action, if that's what you were looking for! It's all too real and all too believable to the point that that the film is a more than a little scary to watch. The main characters go full force into their roles and if you were expecting a happy ending...well, don't.

McCaul Lombardi was an excellent choice to play the lead role of "Keith" and never lets us down in his believability. The film is shot in the vein of "The Wire" and gives an accurate depiction of how sad some area of Baltimore have become.

One star subtracted, though, for all the unnecessary use of the tobacco drug, which should have been left of this and all other films!

This movie is one of the worst pieces of cinema, I have had to sit through. The direction is uneven, cinematography is choppy and the sound is so horrible that the 10 people in the theater all stated that they missed 3/4 of the dialogue. The lead has an endearing blue color, hustler charm, but the characters are one dimensional characters. Can't tell if any of these actors are talented given the dialogue they had to work with. Jim Belushi looks embarrassed he took the part. The sound man needs to not work again. You can't hear dialogue, as the sound is so dismally inadequate!!!
