Note to Jerry -- Don't Quit Your Day Job


Holy HELL his acting was horrific!
And that woman lawyer? Could she have over-acted any more than she did?

God-aweful movie.

I rather thought Jerry's acting was the high point of the show. But, I have to say that's not really a complement.

This was clearly an agenda film. Somebody wanted to show an execution in a film in a way that might be politically influential. They also wanted to show the injustice of the mob. Then they built up a film around that and tried to figure out ways to make it as cheaply as possible. The "man on the street" bits were clearly filler. The camera was bought at Best Buy and they must have hired crew from a local high school. The writing must have been paid for my the hour, since it shows no signs of polish or quality. The plot was -- was there a plot? I'm not even sure what the point of the movie was.

All in all, a terrible bit of cinema.
