01/28/2021 Awful, awful, awful. You would think with Cuba and Dreyfus it would have been ok. It wasn't. See more 01/25/2021 Saw this come up on Hula and thought why not. Now I'm thinking, why??? It wasn't all bad. I liked the location and the shots, and there was a gritty hopeless feel to the movie that I think works based on the storyline, but that's where it ends. The movie was messy, overlong and could have been cleaned up and edited down for less time. I was also surprised by Dreyfus' unconvincing, phoned-in performance of Yuri, a Russian gangster. This is the man in the timeless "Mr. Holland's Opus"? What the heck happened to him. His Russian accent was so cringy that it reminded me of Nick Nolte's "Chef Boyardee" Italian in Lorenzo's Oil. Like most modern movies, there is intent in being "inclusive," but all they produce is a bunch of terrible stereotypes. The white drag queen who is liberal with the "n" word (really? c'mon...) surely sealed the fate of this film and demonstrated more of what was done wrong than right. I was hoping for the best for Cuba Gooding, Jr, but this film is best forgotten or fed to the alligators. See more 01/05/2021 What a sad film to mark a directorial debut. First of all, could there be ANY more stereotypes in one film? From the horrifically ugly Drag Queen or Trans character who freely uses the "N" word and is White, to...well...everyone. Richard Dreyfuss....what happened? Jesus man, you once held Oscar...you're gonna need a bigger tow truck to get this one off the heap...why didn't he scream "I couldda been a contenda!" Famke...what's up? Every sleazy stereotype of every LA photographer, ever? All in one? I applaud working actors and craftspeople crafting their trade, but whoever financed and green lit this script really should rethink why. See more 11/03/2019 This is not like any movie Cuba has ever done, one question WHY? Smh See more 06/20/2019 If you're a fan of Cuba Gooding Jr, you know what to expect here. He's really developing as a fascinating independent film maker who enjoys defying expectations. Bayou Caviar is pulpy drama: sexy, fun, and interesting. It doesn't go where you expect it to.
