mairtino If the trailer is anything to go by and I think it's a pretty good indicator of what's in store then this one does not merit watching at all. The acting seems pretty atrocious and I echo what the one other reviewer that isn't linked to the movie has already said...the acting lacks believability...it's as wooden as hell.If the rest of the picture is well scripted and acted then why would they have chosen the worst 2 minutes of the movie as it's showcase. I know shill voters want to get their picture watched...did it ever occur to them that people would probably be more inclined to watch it if it wasn't such poorly put together garbage. The trailer would seem to suggest a quality that would make even the most amateur film student offering look like the work of Coppola in comparison.

quincytheodore From the first moody monologue, it's clear that Red Herring wants to create a brooding detective story. It's utterly unfortunate that none of its production aspects remotely come close to create any decent action or thriller. This is practically a bad procedural cop showing, perhaps on par or even inferior to an episode of drama television series.Story follows a detective who is friend with the suspect of his investigation. You'll notice soon that the main protagonist is trying to pull off Sin City with incredibly vexing amount of musing. He would daydream about his girl and comments about how bad the case is, which happens too many times it becomes comical.Acting barely holds up in a few scenes yet falls apart in the rest, as though the characters themselves are bored. The movie also incorporates typical Russian henchmen, who might just have the worst accent in silver screen. I usually don't nitpick about accent, it's difficult to deliver precisely and if there's adequate effort it should be passable, but the accent here couldn't be less convincing even if they try to.There are a few other technical flaws, but the most problematic is how boring this movie is. Red Herring is literally repetitive police leg works where neither the case nor the characters have any resemblance of appeal.

VanBooter My definition for Red Herrings are the shill votes for this film, there is no way this is anywhere near a 10, well unless your scale is comparing it to Ben & Arthur or Shark Attack 3 Megalodon even then it should only scrape a 7.First the acting well its on a par with your typical amateur play shown at your local village hall, not good, not bad but meh!Wasn't too happy about the fast forward sequences at the beginning thought my laptop had picked up a virus.Camera work was pretty good I thought, but again this was over shadowed by the low grade acting, I kept shouting CUT now lets do that scene again and this time people say the lines with conviction.What did surprise me was the guy who played the Russian Kyusovich, I couldn't work out his accent, I thought he sounded more like a Mexican until I checked back here and discovered he was born in Russia.So there you go, what do I know, I'm probably way too fussy but seriously it's worth a 4/10 which will be nearer the mark than the 8.7 it was this morning.

jonnyrancher One of the dictionary definitions for a "red herring" is: "something, especially a clue, that is or is intended to be misleading or distracting." When discussing "Red Herring", the film, the dictionary definition definitely applies. "Red Herring" is a taut, action- packed crime-drama, directed by Ousa Kuhn, that will keep you guessing all the way to the exciting finish. The film stars Robert Scott Howard, Holly Valance, Tim Tucker, Andre McCoy, Vincent Pastore of Sopranos fame, and G Eric Miles and is packed with more twists and turns than a dance- hall on a Saturday night.Written and produced by Joshua Cohen, "Red Herring" is a top-notch thriller; on par with the great mystery stories of old! To give you an idea of how intricately Cohen wove his web, at varying points in the film, and in seeming rotation, I thought each of the main characters was the guilty party, and in the end, I was wrong! That's how great mystery is done. And that's what's in store for you in "Red Herring!"Through the efforts of the Nevada Film Incentive (established in 2015,) "Red Herring" is a 100% made-in-Nevada production: Written in Nevada; produced in Nevada; filmed in Nevada. With quality efforts like "Red Herring," the Nevada Film Incentive appears to be off to a very promising start.
