A friend told me this was on Tubi. I laughed out loud. Usually these low budget things on these streaming services are awful. Particularly when there are no names involved at all. But this worked. I guess because it's like Spinal Tap in stile and all the actors are really good. The basic idea of a documentary crew following a hit man is already ridiculous. I was nervous that it was gonna try to be series like Paranormal activity. But it's funny and sloppy and crazy and somehow it works. Flawed from a production point of view. But the performances are definitely more realistic than any reality TV show and it makes a strong statement about clout chasing. I gave it an 8 for the honest effort and the fact that they pulled it off. If it was the same exact thing but was made by HBO with big stars and lots of money it would rate around a seven. So still pretty good even if they had the backing.
