CARLS GUSTAVO is an extremely cheap hit-man thriller shot in the UK. It's that cheap, even by general indie standards, that you rarely see more than two actors on the screen at the same time. The story sees an assassin turn up in London to complete a job, only to find the situation is more complex than he realised. There are no attempts at characterisation and no action, just a sparse plot with lots of boring, drawn-out moments.

Indie assassin

For a first time film I thought it was quite good. An enjoyable diversion with some well made scenes! The torture scene with the pliers was fairly ominous. Master Chet played well and the overall look of the character was quite good. The story left plenty of scope for further exploration later without rounding off the story it was telling. I look forward to the sequel!
British cult thriller

A strong performance by Master Chet provides a fascinating insight into the mind of a strange and psychotic assassin in this British indie thriller. Carlos Gustavo is certainly not your typical hit man, and while the movie could have benefited from a tighter plot, it makes up for this with its gritty realism and moments of dark humour. This one is for the cult collection.
