Director Michael C. Martin
Staring Jena Malone, JT Alexander, Damon Alexander
Rated MA
Score 3/6

A story about two lifelong criminals who maneuver through the shady underbelly of Los Angeles in search of wealth, love and redemption.

Considering that this is the movie that Michael C. Martin has directed, the rule of 5 is going to have to come into play here. Just quickly for those of you who do not know what I mean by the rule of 5 it’s where judgement is reserved on a director or actor (and yes sometimes a writer as well) on their overall ability until they have 5 credits to their name. That being said I really hope that anything written by Martin after 2015 has a little bit more finesse then what I saw here with 10 cent pistol.
Now this had everything that I liked from a crime movie but Martin was just a little liberal with the use of flashbacks and was a little bit clumsy with how he brought us back out of them. Jenna Malone gave a great performance and it was great to see Joe Mantegna because it has been a little while since I have last seen in a movie even if he was only in the opening act of the movie.

I know there might be some of you out there who are fans of movies that have received funding through Kickstarter. It should be noted the filmmakers raised $11,161 through Kickstarter, to fund the distribution of the completed movie. However according to the movie’s IMDB page, when the film was released, most backers did not receive the rewards promised.
