88 (2015)

My quick rating - 5,3/10. Yes, I only checked this one out since Katharine Isabelle is the star. I have been a big fan of hers since American Mary Anyway, here she plays a woman who is in a cafe, no idea why she is there nor who she is. When she also happens to notice she is holding a gun, she also accidentally shoots a waitress. And this is where the whole story begins. I suggest if you are going to watch this one, really watch it since it tells the whole story of what is going on all out of order with flashbacks, and back to present day, at a terribly confusing pace. The story itself once you get a grip on what is happening (about the last few minutes) actually is well written just told poorly. That is my major downfall with it. The acting was good including the rest of the cast since I am biased for the lead. Definitely a different kind of role for Christopher Lloyd as well. He plays the major baddie drug dealer whom the police, headed up by Michael Ironside are looking to take down. The range of acting is handled well since at times Isabelle has to play a bad ass and at other times, a frightened everyday woman. Not saying Oscar level, but surely better than average. I had never heard of this one, and I am glad I caught it, even with its major flaw, it was still enjoyable.
