It started with a couple dead bodies and 68,000 in stolen cash. Alisha Boe and Sheila Vand, in supporting roles, are by turns sexy and strange. A punk-rock after hours about femininity, masculinity and the theft of 68,000.
#68 KILL IMDB MOVIE#
Though his script is only half as clever as it should be, that’s enough to give the movie a daffy charm.
McCord’s characters are matched to maximum effect - he’s nervous, she’s violent - and Trent Haaga, the writer and director, races through scenes as if there were no time to waste, adding to the energy. But this movie is determined not to take itself seriously, and that makes it easy for you to do the same and cackle, even as the bloodshed turns ridiculously foul and cheesiness is played as a virtue. Overview Chips problem is that he cant say no to beautiful women.
Some twists and double-crosses follow the theft, none of them too complex or entirely logical. The bumbling Chip is reluctant to help, but Liza is persuasive - she punches hard - and before you can say “They shouldn’t be bringing weapons to this supposedly nonviolent robbery,” everything hits the fan. That innocence begins and ends with Chip (Matthew Gray Gubler), whose batty girlfriend, Liza (AnnaLynne McCord), plans to rob her sugar daddy (David Maldonado) of the cash in his safe.
It’s a little amazing how a story so guilty of gross-out violence can retain a share of comic innocence. Nuttier than a bakery full of fruitcakes and sleazier than a cheap strip club, “68 Kill” is a proudly morbid heist movie that wallows in bad taste and still comes off as absurdly funny.
