Movie Reviews of One False Move
Movie Review: Franklin's auspicious debut
Summary: 5 Stars
This film almost wound up on direct to video were it not for 2 people or critics--Siskel & Ebert!! Former actor Carl Franklin had already made one film for Roger Corman before he did this one and he had to mortgage his home to get credit to make this film--but it turned out to be a winner in more ways than one. For starters, it pushed former Cameron regular, Bill Paxton, to leading man status and Billy Bob Thornton to write another Southern classic, "Sling Blade". This proves that you don't need a lotta money to have a good film, just good writing!! And Cyndi Williams is a fox and excellent in the final confrontation scene with Paxton. Recommended for lovers of noir and Southern tales!!
Summary of One False Move
After murdering their competitors a small-time drug dealer and her two cohorts become engaged in a game of cat-and-mouse with the cops. Studio: Sony Pictures Home Ent Release Date: 03/22/2005 Starring: Bill Paxton Cynda Williams Run time: 106 minutes Rating: RA dark and spare thriller about irresistible forces headed for a collision with an immovable object. The latter is the local sheriff in a small Arkansas town (Bill Paxton); the former are a trio of L.A. drug dealers (Billy Bob Thornton, Michael Beach, Cynda Williams), who, having committed a multiple murder, head for that tiny town on the lam to hide out with Williams's family. Directed by Carl Franklin from a script cowritten by Thornton, the film contrasts the converging parties: Paxton as the eager small-timer who resents getting the high hat from the FBI and aches to prove himself; Thornton as the explosive bad guy who looks like a pussycat next to the sadistic Beach. In the middle is the subtle, low-key performance by Williams, who has secrets neither side is aware of. Compelling and energy-charged, without taking a single obvious step. --Marshall Fine
