When The Odds Are Against You You Have To Face Them Fighting. Sometimes life throws a curve ball a fork in the road or a wall between you and what you want. For Socrates Fortlow life keeps getting in the way but nothing stays in the way of a man with his mission. Socrates is going to make it - his way on his terms - and if you aren't part of the solution then you know where you stand. If you're a killer terrorizing the neighborhood you'll have to deal with him first. If you're a beautiful woman who deserves more attention attention will be paid. If you're a witness to a murder and you need protection you're staying alive in his hands. Life's questions can be hard but the answers are easy: When it comes to trouble you look for the man who's still standing. Because the way he's fighting for his life is the way you want him fighting for yours.
This is a hilarious comedy about a man who suffers from a severe identity crisis as his 30th birthday apparoaches.
Price Of A Broken Heart
Once in a while, studio heads actually make sensible decisions. Kudos to whoever at Trimark screened the embarrassing True Crime, an overwrought, under thought, "mystery" and decided, "You know, we really don't need to let the American public see this," and immediately sent it straight to video. Probably the one most pleased by the decision was Alicia Silverstone, who didn't need this type of thing getting a theatrical distribution and hurting her blossoming career. As for Kevin Dillon? Well, he was probably happy just to get paid. Silverstone plays the teen Nancy-Drew-meets-Encyclopedia-Brown protagonist who teams up with fresh-faced police cadet Dillon to try to bag a serial killer who's been butchering teenage girls at travelling carnivals in various cities. Writer-director Pat Verducci packs his thriller with implausible detective work and numerous plot twists, all visible 20 minutes away. The "shock" ending can pretty much be worked out within the first act, leaving viewers another hour to watch Verducci concoct several amateur dream sequences, and explore a disgusting sexual relationship between Silverstone and Dillon. By the end, the question isn't so much "Whodunit?" as "Who cares?" --Dave McCoy, Amazon.com
