Review for 'Crime Spree'...


I just saw this movie for the first time on "Showtime" and I haven't enjoyed a movie this much in a long time. It completely fulfilled the main things that I look for in a movie.

The main thing that I look for in a movie or any other type of programming is what makes me forget how miserable, lonely, and traumatic my life has been and that I have no hope of ever being happy.

There is no better way to forget that than a great movie (especially comedies).

This movie is way better than drinking because it doesn't cause any harm whatsoever but alchoholism makes things a lot worse in the long run.

It was completely hilarious and it was really a breath of fresh air for me. I loved the plot twists, the jokes, the actors and was relieved that the ending was generally pretty happy and justice was served. I was glad to see that Abe Vigoda is still around. Harvey Keitel was great as always. I really liked Garnet Harding and the other guys with him too. I don't think I ever saw most of the french actors before but I loved them.

Usually when I find a good movie to watch, as soon as it ends and the credits start rolling I automatically return to the severe depression I suffer from as if snapped back to the harsh reality I live in the instant the movie ends, but this movie made me so happy that I'm just now starting to get depressed again 15 minutes or so after watching it.

So any movie that gives me happiness not only while I'm watching it, but has such a strong effect that my depression, misery and suffering take a full fifteen minutes to fully return is a bonafide classic and I'd recommend anyone who has the ability to to watch it.

I was wondering where it was made too. I couldn't tell if it was French, US or Canadian made but either way I loved it.

It's the best movie I've seen in a long time.

This film was a lot of fun, I love when the guys are arguing who should be Elvis!
