Everly

'The screenplay for this film was featured in the 2010 Blacklist; a list of the "most liked" unmade scripts of the year'.
This film all takes place on the 6th floor apartment building, matter of fact according to director Joe Lynch, the camera never leaves the apartment building.
Salma plays Everly, and Everly is in trouble. Her ex Mob Boss husband wants her dead.
Bad news for Everly

It's a low budget film with plenty of action and thrills, even a bit of humor.
I really liked this film.
Seems most reviews are not so good thou, I had saw one good review and that fella said that most reviews are bad cause people expected to maybe see Salma naked, but were disappointed.
Another thing too thou is that this is not a believable thriller film, like Silence of the Lambs could be believable. But I don't think it's meant to be believable like other thrillers. That seemed to have weighed some reviews too, as they didn't see what they expected to see.

Me, I liked it.
The action was great , over the top you might say. The thrills were all there too
Quite a bit of violence, but hey it's a movie about Contract Killers and a Mob Boss's ex wive

3 thumbs up outta 5
