Accidentally stumbled upon this film, having never heard of it until viewing. Had no expectations and didn't know much about the film, just that the plot sounded relatively simple and that this featured Ryan Reynold in one of his earlier films.
Quite an interesting and thought provoking thriller. Brings up relatively real life situations and makes you think of what you may do if you were in the lead protagonist's shoes in that situation.
It takes place in one setting and it works. No special effects used and the film doesn't look low budget. Resembles that of a television series. The writing is good enough and sharp that the dialogue stays fresh and the events that unfold keep us watching. The acting by the lead character Tepper is convincing and that of James Earl Jones as of well.
There is a plot twist in the end that isn't exactly thought out or pieced together (perhaps if there was a montage of clips or images showing us how everything got tied up and explained what occurred- it could have been better). But the director seemed to want us to think for ourselves.
Finder's Fee is a hidden gem of a film and deserves more recognition. Currently an IMDB rating of 6.4 with only over two thousand votes.
