This is an odd quirky twisty indy style film that keeps the viewer engaged. Beatle Boyin (Michele Hicks) is being interrogated by Detective Randy Holt (Raffaello Degruttola). She is cool, calm, and quiet during his story telling which makes up the bulk of the film. Beatle is an assassin for hire. She has made a video and has a card advertising her assassination skill and towing service. There is also the printed brochure. Carla (Sarah Shahi) is a */prostitute who Beatle hooks up with once a week. She also visits a "shrink" (Orlando Jones) who thinks her hitman persona is a fantasy. She meets Athena (Ever Carradine), a prospective client, and their relationship becomes complicated. I had to keep watching the film as a quirky mystery with few characters. The humor is dry. The ending was unexpected. Guide: F-bomb. FF sex. Brief nudity (Sarah Shahi, Michele Hicks)

I recently had the pleasure of viewing Guns For Hire. Before watching I had never heard of the film before, so I was a bit skeptical with low expectations. I was pleasantly surprised when the film exceeded every expectation I could have had. The movie was an absolute treat to watch. The writing was superb. Often little known films have a slew a problems which all start with the writing. The story easily flowed and the plot unfolded naturally. The characters were fully developed and seemed more like genuine individuals instead of plot devices. The dialogue was naturalistic and the verbiage was contemporary. The acting was top notch. The cinematography was stylistic and the direction was fluid. I definitely recommend this film to anyone who is a movie fan. You will not be disappointed as it is an easy watch.

I was looking for something to stream. This popped up with a decent cast, I thought I would give it a watch. Let's be clear, this is a low budget film. Even though it says Sony and the cast, it is a low budget indie. It was weird, but not bad. If you know what you are getting, it is entertaining. I understand some others being brutal with their reviews as they probably fell for the non stop action label. It is not an action film. There is little action. Not sure why they went that route as it is sure to make some mad. If you know this going in, it will not disappoint. They should have pushed it as an odd indie and then probably would have gotten better feedback. Anyway, it starts off a little slow, but it kept my interest, again it is weird. The ending you will love or hate for sure. I liked it, but understand how someone might get angry with it. It's a good watch for an afternoon as long as you know what you are getting....a low budget odd film. I truly think this is one you will either like or totally hate. thus the varying reviews.

This movie is like a long episode of one of your average 90's tv shows. Maybe Sunset Beach or any of those dussin for a dine shows. It's all sjot in a studio with bad lighting and it's a mystery to me that the movie could gather up any kind of budget. The actors are flat. The one sticking out to me though , is JDM who shows some of the qualities we see in n Negan.

Considering a somewhat acceptable rating of 5.4/10 and how absolutely awful and embarrassment of a movie this is to everyone involved, I can only come to the conclusion that the higher ratings were from either people directly involved or people that were paid to fix the rating (their are legitamite businesses that specialises in that). I don't know what got somewhat respectable actors like Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Orlando Jones and Tony Shalhoub to appear in this tired crapfest, and based on their performances (which are their worst of their careers by far) I can only suspect that they were dared into making appearances in it or something. The reason I gave it a 2 instead of a 1 is because I have to be honest, I stopped watching halfway through, there was literally nothing that was remotely interesting. Not even the terribly constructed cheesy lesbian sex-scenes (which starts already by the startcredits of the film) could keep my interest. Oh yeah the movie was filmed 10 years ago, but no company wanted to release it. Then Jeffrey Dean Morgan got signed on for a role on the biggest TV show on earth THE WALKING DEAD, and what do you know all of a sudden there was interest enough to release it and so it was in the last week of 2015. But he's not the lead for the record and again, truly terrible.

Beware of writer/directors. Makes you wonder how people get finance. But that's the movie business, folks! The title is a total misnomer although the original title, The Adventures of Beatle, is no better. There's no action, just some gratuitous lesbian sex and torture scenes, although not at the same time. The disjointed 'story/plot' is told in flashback and, yes, you might want to know how the characters and their relationship pan out but you'll never know. There is a very subtle hint (although it could go either way) at the end but you'll have probably walked out or switched off before you get that far. Although if you do stay the course - brave soul - you won't see the ending coming - it's so far left field - but it does nothing to bring any of the story threads to a conclusion. IMDb's current 5+ score is generously high.

The good: This movie has some really quirky/original plot ideas. A female tow-truck driver who moonlights as an assassin gets hired by another woman who wants to be killed. Sounds good eh? The bad: Aside from a few short cameos by some of my favourite actors, this film basically consists of static shots where two women argue with each other. It is obvious that the scenes were meant to be witty and funny however they fail completely in that regard. The dialogue is clumsy and the characters are unlikeable. This is one of the few films I've not been able to sit through (and I sat through The Return of the Lobster Man From Mars!) The only reason I'm giving this 3 stars instead of 1 is because I really do believe the concept of the movie could have worked

This is definitely an indie film. It doesn't have any bells or whistles and it has some production quality issues that go along with low budget films. The cast is stellar. While this is not the best film I have ever seen, it made a cold winter's day pass entertainingly. It's clearly a tongue in check dark comedy, which other might have missed or will miss. For what it's worth it kept me entertained and is pretty short. The story while confusing at times came together for me at the end. Jeffrey Morgan was great, though not in it as much as I would have liked. I am guessing this will be one of those films that people will either get and like or not and hate. for me I liked it.
