goldy6969 This spoof is brilliant entertainment .Bloody funny, the lead actor has a painted on hair piece, every woman loves him, even if he makes a lot of really bad choices for a really nice guy , sic,All of the characters are hilarious parodies of the crime genre. The cops , the bad guys , the hit men, the babes, all played by nobody wannabe actors, or maybe their not wannabe anything, but are just having fun.The wife of silent Sam of course is dying whilst all the mayhem is going on, but still manages to be with Sam on his exploits through to the end, so bizarre , but hilarious...The car chases are brilliant,, defiantly stolen from the Thunderbirds... This is not a movie to be taken seriously, it's a comedy, laugh and enjoy it for what it is. Sure it's cheap, but good on everyone who took part, as its great to see people having a go. And it's cool to be silly...Hey this could be the start of a whole new genre, as long as they keep their humor . All in all a really good laugh, something different, but i am sure its not for everyone..... Xxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx
chuckfinly-1 Sometimes reviewers get so caught up in their own little vision of what entertainment ought to be that they can't loosen up and just enjoy a movie for what it is. Case in point is SILENT SAM a fine movie. Richard Collier as Sam Ramirez is well suited as the silent hero type - a kind of early Chuck Norris - a one-man army dishing out justice where justice is due. Some of the character actors are great as well, David Ian Matheson as the borderline by the book Detective, he gives you a sense of mixed loyalties- friendship or the law. Neal Layden as Paulie the snitch - a greasy no morals guy- gives you the creeps just looking at him: and manages to create a genuine (and a bit unsettling) hatred for Ramirez. There are several plot threads, all interesting. The film is never too complicated to lose focus.It is flawed only by the low budget and an awful bit of CGI car chase stuff in the middle of the film. Recutting to eliminate this crap would produce an even higher end Action thriller. Is "Silent Sam" a little cheesy? Perhaps. Are the characters deep and the production values high? No.But nobody ever claimed that this movie was going to win awards. Producers just wanted to give their intended audience a good time, and in that task, they succeeded. And besides, who doesn't want to see Drug Dealers, Mob guys and the occasional bad Cop get what's coming to them?
slatromhsiloof There really needs to be a way to put negative stars on these low budget turds. The "good" reviews are obviously being put up by people involved in the production of the "film". This "film" is so bad it doesn't even deserve a 1 star vote. This waste of time and money appears to have been written and shot by a bunch of drunk frat boys in the span of an afternoon. Cartoon blood added later courtesy of free rendering software downloaded from the wifi connection on a laptop at the local McDonald's. This movie is so bad, please don't even waste the time to finish reading any reviews about it. I wouldn't recommend watching it unless you are the college professor who has to grade it, and if you are he....I feel sorry for you. How anyone would waste their time filming such garbage is beyond my comprehension. This movie isn't even worth watching to make fun of it, and the people who shot it. Every copy should be rounded up, loaded onto a rocket and shot into the sun so that every trace of its existence can be wiped from the face of the earth. I'm embarrassed to even be of the same species as the person who thought someone would want to see this. I watched the first 20 minutes and I think I have suffered permanent brain damage from it. Its impossible to put into words how truly horrible this "movie" is. I would rather watch colonoscopy video than this thing. This thing is UGLY. Just reading the reviews makes me want to punch the director in the face. AVOID! AVOID! AVOID!
laughalt Every demographic has its fantasy movie, its veritable fairytale. Hipsters have The Big Lebowski. Nerds have Scott Pilgrim vs the World. The Bernie Madoff set even has such an ideal tale in Wall Street.Silent Sam fulfills a fantasy for a crazily-overlooked contingent of our populace: fat, balding middle-aged guys. And, my, oh my, does it ever hit the mark! Sam Ramirez, true to form is stuck in a living hell. His wife has a terminal illness, which she is only days away from dying from, his partner on the police force is trying to get him to cheat on said wife and, if that wasn't enough, there are a lot of stone cold criminals who would enjoy nothing more than to give him a pair of cement shoes and take him swimming in the Hudson. The criminals get one step closer realizing the cement shoes for Sam when they kill his partner and he begins massacring the mobsters in a bloody rage. Needless to say, lots of people die.-Richard Snyder Intimidator of the Realm
