Editorial Reviews

BREAK is a stylistic noir drama, shot like a comic book come to life, about an introverted hit man named Frank who is contracted to carry out an unusual job. When the city’s crime boss, known only as “The Man,” discovers that he’s terminally ill, he enlists Frank to carry out his own assassination. “The Man,” however, is selfish and jealous, and doesn’t want to die alone, and makes it clear to Frank that he is to take out the woman he loves too. When Frank discovers that The Woman is his own long lost lover, Frank alters the job. In an action-packed chain of events, riddled with dark humor and visual spectacle, Frank and The Woman take on their enemies.

BREAK is more than an action film - the characters are all great with Michael Madsen having a fetish for fat women, Chad Everett as the twisted crime boss, a bodyguard who only speaks in haikus and David Carradine having a little person as a pet on a leash. This movie is a lot of fun!

Break is a film noire that you don't see much any more. I IMMEDIATELY have to point out the genius of casting Chad Everett in the mob role. Wow --- ah, we were left wanting a LOT more. Frank Kruger -- pure star quality and nails all aspects of his role. He truly grabs the screen. I am STILL trying to figure out the David Carradine scene -- but Carradine amazingly works complete credence into a bizarre charachter -- he nails his last role and then some. Bottom line, a great flick that frankly works a retro (almost sadly forgotten) way of telling a story, which was and is a total delight to see come together on film. Director Clebenoff seems to continue breaking through where others dredge up the same ol same ol. Totally entertaining movie. BIG thumbs up. Director Clebenoff is building an exciting path and vision --- this guy is the real deal. I/we wanna see more.
