That was an excellent one.

How sad is this?

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Sunset Park was full of twist and turns that I did not see coming in the best way. The story is dark and gritty and keeps you on the edge of your seat. The performances by all the actors involved were wonderfully done. Michael Trevino and Robert Miano had outstanding chemistry as Gino and Gramps. They were by far the best relationship in the film. This is also a must see for Michael Trevino fans. In his first leading role, Trevino proves that he has the skills and talent to carry a film. He navigated the ups and downs of Gino's life flawlessly. This was totally worth the two year wait. I would totally recommend this film to Trevino fans and anyone who likes an underdog story. My one and only gripe is that I wish it was longer.
