Reviews
Karma is a beautiful fearful bitch.
The story revolves around a man that was abandoned as a child and was brought up by the hard knock life of the streets. Money was his only goal and little old ladies were easy targets. Helps an elder lady while on the lam for his crimes because he just could not leave her after a moped accident. Thus the story begins.The story is told very slowly, almost unbearably slow, but the redemption arc is amazing and how we all love karma and her wicked ways of balancing justice is woven perfectly into this story.
The cast does an amazing job of bringing these characters to life to tell the story written by some excellent screenwriters. If you have the patience for this i recommend it.
