Wrong Reasons is very clearly a passion project for writer/director Josh Roush, as his narrative feature debut, hence the low budget, guerrilla style filmmaking. I liked the film overall, though it I didn’t love it, but it gets an above average score from me out of sheer respect, if nothing else. Don’t get me wrong, I did enjoy the film overall, but I have mad respect for this Josh guy scrapping together the funding and calling in all of his favors and connections in order to finally make his passion project.

Okay flick about a dude who kidnaps a drug addicted punk singer. Nothing that happens is believable, but the movie has a solid cast that makes it entertaining.

Saw it tonight at Row House and fucking loved it. I appreciated how it lived in the gray areas.
Wrong reasons is the feature debut of josh roush, friend and collaborator of Kevin smith.
I walked into it kind of blindly, as I found indie films to be best enjoyed this way as you never know where theyre(the good ones) are gonna go.
The story follows a punk rockstar who gets kidnapped, and a loser cop trying to find her.
I really liked this film-it was unpredictable and managed to do a lot of things with a low budget.
The story of this really resonated with me. I won’t go into more specifics about the plot-but I found the story to be a very human story about codependency, deceptive media, and the importance of the arts. The film has…
Fun enough but not great. It's fine to be a bit rough around the edges but it was a lot lighter fare than I'd hoped for.
