Care of the State

About This Movie

So, 'Care of the State' is this quirky blend of comedy and drama that definitely stands out. Connor, our lead, is a desperate guy with a heart condition, and his logic for wanting to end up in jail is darkly humorous. It’s one of those films that plays with the absurdity of the healthcare system, making you chuckle while also feeling a bit uneasy. The pacing is kind of unique too; it doesn’t rush, letting the awkward situations simmer a bit. The performances are a mixed bag, but Connor's character really draws you in. Practical effects are minimal, but they don’t take away from the film's odd charm. It’s just a different angle on the lengths people go to for survival. Worth a look for sure.
