‘Blow The Man Down’ (2019) Amazon Movie — Decent Story, ‘Poorly’ Produced, ‘David Coffin’ Was A Waste.
YouTube trailer.
With no cricket being played, anywhere in the world, I am kind of lost. So, I am forced to watch movies on Amazon during my TV time. Hence, this movie.
It is set in Maine and the description was fairly enticing. It was an ‘OK’ movie. It could have been better.
Having ‘David Coffin‘, THE MAN from Revels (Cambridge) was a treat & a kick. I did NOT know he was going to be in it, but I recognized him as soon as he appeared. Ironically, I am not sure why they had him in the movie! I could be very wrong BUT I am not sure he added anything. His sea shanties, all of which I was familiar with, were incongruous in this movie — in my opinion. They were loud and made the movie seem unnecessarily heavy-handed and dark.
That it was in Maine and that it revolved around lobstering was cute. Liked that.
Story was OK. Not great. Production was BAD. It could have been muck slicker and having David Coffin was a waste! Sorry.
