I had high expectations for No Sudden Move – so much so that it made my Top 20 list for this month. There was a lot of stiff competition, so it didn’t score at the top, but that didn’t change the fact that I was really looking forward to it.
That said, I’m afraid I had a bit of a difficult time keeping up with the convoluted story and crisscrossing machinations of the characters. No Sudden Move felt like a solid movie in the moment, though if you asked me now what it was about, I honestly don’t think I could give you anything specific with any certainty. I’m chalking this up to my ADHD acting up – it’s my bad for forgetting my medication this morning. I had things to fidget with to try and keep focused, but I was desperately tempted to play on the phone and let the movie run in the background.
Needless to say, that is usually a good indicator that it didn’t grip me hard enough with the story so that I would be on the edge of my seat and forgetting that things like my phone existed. I wish that weren’t the case. Don’t get me wrong, though. No Sudden Move fit within its genre well, and it was a treat to see Brendan Fraser (Breakout, Trust, Line of Descent) excelling in a role again –even if it was sans his squeaky clean character image of the past and more on the seedy side this time. Three cheers that he broke free from type-casting!
