I must first note, that I am at Hollywood video every Tuesday night selecting the movies, which have just come out that day. All movies released to video happen on Tuesdays. So many of my reviews will be from memory. It must also be said, that from my past, I do currently suffer from “Mary Jane” memories.
Originally released on video on April 30th 2002. When I brought this movie home, my wife said, “what did you rent this for?” Seems anything with the words Brigham City or Mormon in them and she starts to shutter and convulse. It is a personal problem, I am currently seeking therapy for her on. I did not know what I was going to think of this movie. I do not think this movie had a terribly large budget to work with, However, I have found “diamond’s in the rough,” with low-budget films. I would consider this to be a “cubic zerkonian” in the rough. As a retired sheriff in the film, and a Utah resident in Wilford Brimley, I have grown to really like his acting.
The movie was surprisingly good. It had all the elements of any film sporting a huge budget could produce. There were many misleading plots within the movie, and it left you guessing as to “who dunnit” throughout the whole movie. There was even a scene in the movie that reminded me of a guy I know by the name of Stain. When the Sheriff questions a suspect, having been weeded out through a neighborhood door to door canvass of the town, not only left you admiring his porn collection, it also left you wanting to throw your lawyers calling card out because of the blatant violation of his civil rights. If having your porn collection found out by your local sheriff wasn’t bad enough, it can be construed as “twice as bad” when that sheriff is also your bishop. The story line has given intriguing dilemmas the sheriff is faced with. On one side of the coin you have the sheriff trying to find a killer, and on the other side of the coin, this same sheriff is your bishop. Which, the opposite is true for the sheriff who is trying to protect his town and it’s civilians, who are also under his spiritual guidance. I would not want to wear those two hats, one or the other, but not both.
While this film is not inundated with a large budget, or big name actors, it was a good film non-the-less, and the ending, while not surprising in totality, is a climactic one, and left me guessing to the end.
