North Hollywood: Good effort but ultimately lacking
26 May 2021
This one is going to hurt because of how much I love Illegal Civ and the entire cast of this movie, however, this movie is very boring and it leaves you confused and maybe even angry. I payed the 18$ to watch it before it was released on iTunes and I can wholeheartedly say I wish I would have waited. The character was so hard to root for that I started to enjoy watching his life become a mess. Good actors are totally wasted and there's massive parts of the movie that are super dumb and have no purpose in furthering the plot. Like the lame scene with the joke that fails and all the homies are shaking their heads. Also the scene at that sketchy apartment when he gets beat up. This movie is so highly rated because all the kids who can't think critically don't want to seem like haters and actually admit the movie sucked. It's cool that this was made by skaters, for skater, starring skaters but when it comes to being a movie this was atrocious. With that being said I think Mikey has great potential and I'm excited to see what future projects he releases.
