Huff (2013)

Pretty sure of that. I mean there are a lot of comparisons you could make to the "original story" this is "based" on. Our big bad wolf in this one, is obviously a human being, but he's as evil as they come. Almost comical evil most of the time. He also has an issue with his breath (though he never at any point tries to blow down a house ... with his breath that is of course).You get a bunch of good looking actors, whom you can almost feel sorry for and they have to go through a lot. Jump through plot holes and such things. Not to mention all the "silly" acting they have to do or the convenient meetings/things that are happening all around. It's not the worst movie I've seen (by far not in that category), but the whole thing feels rather like an excuse than a good movie

Wasn't scared one bit. The only reason I finished the movie is because I like closure. I want to see it to the end, regardless of how bad it is. So, my recommendation, avoid at all costs.So, you're looking for your money, and it's really important to you? Why not stay and search right in the same area all day long, and even visit your home for most of the movie. Don't worry, that type of money just comes back to you, it doesn't run away. Just wait for it.Oh, and how smart do you have to be to be handcuffed to a large loophole screw, and not think to attempt to unscrew it, instead, to watch your son be killed in front of you.You think the story is bad? Just wait to see the acting, actually, don't wait, just pass.Absolutely nothing in this movie makes any sense. There are just so many things in the movie that even common sense could not screw up. I'm just mad that I wasted time watching this instead of watching something else while working.

There's a solid story in here, but someone forgot to tell it.The whole thing is disjointed. The opening scene presents a perverted world view. Then there's a pointless scene with a gang. Then there's a load of scenes showing the director has no idea how to tell a story or generate believable action.The actors are good, but several of the characters don't need to be here. Why three sisters? Because there were three little pigs. Why does Huff have two women? No idea.The incoherence between scenes, and even within scenes, is spectacular. And yet it's very well shot. I bet the photographer looked at the story boards and said, "But..." and the director said, "Shut up - I'm the boss".On top of that the sex and violence is really prudish. Hoping for a PG13? LOL.With a good director this could have been a decent black comedy of white trash despair. Instead it's just trash.

I was able to see this at a screening held in Dallas last month, with some of the cast and crew involved also attending. While this movie will not set the world on fire, if you take it at face value (a take off of the 3 Little Pigs with some random and sometimes uncomfortable humor involved), it is a decent flick - worth a rental although not a full-on purchase.Spoilers belowHuff, the titular character played by Charlie O'Connell, is not a good guy - dealing drugs and stepping out with a mistress - who wants to make one big score before leaving the US. Unfortunately, the drug money he has gets into his girlfriend's hands, who then gives the money to her 3 daughters to start a better life with. Huff eventually finds them all, with varying degrees of success about getting the money back.There is some nudity and definitely a lot of blood (although not a lot of gore, really, compared to some slasher flicks). The callbacks to the 3 Little Pigs story are sometimes great and sometimes cringe worthy. The actresses playing the mother and her 3 daughters are not very good, but I don't think this is a movie people will want to watch for the acting skills.For the type of movie it is (which I would consider cheesy, cheeky slasher), I give this a 7/10, or a C. It's not the best in the genre, but it's entertaining.
