One Fast Move
One Fast Move
Redemption and the world of athletics. Or rather redemption in the world of sports. Many such heart-warming under-dog stories are related to sports, even extreme sports. To the general audience of motion pictures, there is the vague overused intrigue of an underdog story — a poor but richly talented young sportsman who has but one chance to apply the talent given to him by God because what else is there in such a cruel world? One thinks, for example, of what other classic movies including Rocky, Invincible, and even I, Tonya show. And Prime Video’s new direct-to-streaming feature One Fast Move proves that the list is only beginning in the year 2024.
In Chicago, women are not bikers, as their new feature is so-called Lorraine in the screenplay of the movie the Bikeriders. No, this isn’t The Bikeriders with Tom Hardy and Austin … Yes, it has now happened that there are two different … What are the chances? Two the same zombie flicks, “Immaculate” and “The First Omen,” one week apart. Yes, these are not the varied tale just within the idea of One Fast Move and One Fast Move Carlson is not the right person for and leaves a smaller but will shock you because there is a wonderful cast an out. Split the screen or shoot without special effects Be so, impressive visuals really deal with such a drastic, extreme sport, and be able to satisfy amateurs as well as professionals. And yes, this is as much as well-tuned material and cast, there are narrative cliches with the rest of the film that are already successful tropes just that warrants this part of it.
You wouldn’t say that “Archie” from The CW low-rated Riverdale series is gearing up for a new extreme sports flick, looking completely different from his old TV character. In One Fast Move, NZ’s dapper dude KJ Apa jumps into what would be The Bikeriders’ recruiting roster(lol sorry all wrong movie).
KJ Apa walks in with a briefcase but makes the most magnificent American accent once again. In front of us stands a ripped, bald young man with an intensity in his gaze of someone who has been left hard from his upbringing. And it is nothing, literally nothing, in comparison to what the cruelest part of the opening sequence has in store for the audience. Prepare to receive missives, all Riverdale haters: they use a more serious approach than in the beloved show because it’s actually a professional-grade film, just like Apa’s good supporting role in The Hate U Give (2018).
One Fast Move, which is directed by Kelly Blatz, who has been an actor in a few projects throughout the years, is stylized and takes guts like nature. The sleekness is unbroken to the point where each of the raw roughness comes more than usually as is particularly in the opening that sees the bold Wes (Apa) taking part in an illegal street race that a chain sends him to.
A few months down the lane, Wes is out and about and he is somewhere in a small town which is not exactly where he is used to being anymore -or is it? Wesley, who is a motorbike racer at core, again somehow has to end up in the local racing track where his eyes are always drawn to one of the racers -renowned Dean, who, by coincidence, is Wes’ father who has always been absent since Wess’ childhood. Well, it is said that there’s no smoke without fire — the two probably come from the same dynasty possessing obvious racing talent and never get into a crash while riding those awful fast racing bikes, and even if it is so for Dean, who’s got his body rebuilt with metal rods in place of some broken bones from previous races. and let’s be clear — ex-con Wes is currently neither of a sixpence, while Dean is preoccupied with chasing women and partying rather wild and doing none of his contestants work other than unsuccessfully competing for the local scene pro races fames top pot.
Dean’s love for partying is not something that Wes enjoys and there are plenty of arguments between them at the beginning, but what unfurls is the kind of heartfelt, grounded family stuff that audience members would just gobble up, even if some of us are afraid of motorcycles. Some of the apadane-dane chemistry is darkly graphic yet hilarious at times as they engage in ‘tough love’ in the event that ‘Yeah! maybe uncle dean will take his long lost nephew under his wing’ master- “ and even” make wes a mild stardom in the world of bikeriding.
In fact, Wes enrolls into an employment at a local cycle shop and manages to get his first job as a bicycle mechanic for the grizzly father figure as one abel who enjoys being old with the perfect wrinkles played by Edward James Olmos operationalally of Battlestar Gallactica. The informal family tree from Olmos to Dane provides within an overdependence of the film on a number of sequences which do not even attempt to showcase the talents of the extreme sports enthusiasts in these young women. There is also artmaia who plays maia reffico the delightful waitress at wess uncle’s new restaurant, who falls for wess who is new το town and understanding. The young stars’ chemistry is another strength even with the stereotypical romantic arcs that unfold.
This applies even for the build-up of the story as even here, the ending brings closure to Wes’ journey but I remain unmoved because it is riddled with the exhausted, flawed and tried redemptive clichés. Eric Dane in this context went on record to argue that we want to see broken people fix themselves. Love him or hate him, he is right. It is obvious how it is going to be with our lead protagonist but still, the minor cravings in One Fast Move with the pleasing supporting characters will also keep you entertained and maybe help you keep back your eye from rolling at how conveniently everything manages to get solved by the third act.
