Featured review
Film gives Usher an edge up.
Usher is the story of Ash, a young and inexperienced hit man, who just botched his latest "job".
As a result, the boss decides to take a break with the kid and tells him to "find a job to pay the rent." Ash does what a lot of people do. He gets a minimum wage job, working next to slackers and morons, and faces his toughest challenge, dealing with the public.
Ash, uses his hit man and tough guy training, keeping order at the theater, while keeping a close eye on the cute concessions stand girl.
The film has a lot in common with other low budget mob stories. The film stars many of the directors friends, and is set in a location he has access to. A historic movie theater. This backdrop however, is extremely grand and looks great on the big screen.
Unlike most new low budget movies like this, Usher is shot on Film, and it definitely shows. The production values are mostly all high and shooting on film, gives this one a better look than a lot of other indie movies.
