Deep Gold (2011)
2/10
Truly awful

Warning: Spoilers
I have to admit I sat through 45 minutes of the Blu-Ray of this before turning off in disgust at the atrocious acting and direction as well as the ridiculousness of the plot. Not only do the main characters of this movie not know how to act to save their lives but they are at the mercy of a director who doesn't know how to get anything other than wooden responses out of them. And the cutting leaves in pauses and frozen moments after 'action' which are indefensible. On top of that the holes in the plot are inexcusable. We see what must be ten tons of gold being picked up by a fork lift truck and soldiers tossing around gold bars like they were lumps of plastic (which they clearly are). And a plane goes 'missing' in broad daylight having been watched by a local radio broadcaster who narrates it live! And the only one to find this out is the pilot's girlfriend? Really? And the guy who tips her off gets shot in the belly while helping her 'escape' in his car but there are no visible bullet holes in the car to show how, exactly, the bullet would get to his belly. I think you get the gist already. This isn't even fun or light entertainment, it's simply abysmal.
