Review of Sollers Point

Sollers Point (2017)
1/10
Talk about a POS

Warning: Spoilers
Being released under house arrest and sent home to the crummy Baltimore neighborhood for which the low-budget independent film Sollers Point is named. He wants to get his life back, find an honest job, start fresh, and be responsible and independent. None of this is easy in the custody of his gruff, indifferent father (a surprisingly good Jim Belushi) and wearing an ankle bracelet that monitors his every move. What saves the movie from tedium is a cast that is easy to watch, from understated veterans such as Belushi, Marin Ireland as Keith's older sister and Lynn Cohen as his sympathetic grandmother, to the effective and crudely mesmerizing star. Despite a tendency to mumble self-consciously, McCaul Lombardi has real charisma. But it's clear that Keith is going nowhere-and neither is Sollers Point.

****SPOILER ALERT****

*this movie is trash hot trash. Can't even call it trash cause even trash serves a purpose. The ending is absolutely crazy. Not in a good way at all. Buddy crashes his fathers car in a lake after getting in a verbal fight with his father. The movie shortly ends after showing him just walking away from the crash.
