I suppose it’s my own fault but when I saw this I thought it might be a gangster thriller. Nope, it’s about the on-off relationship between tattoo artist “Rule” (Chase Stokes) and his friend “Shaw” (Sydney Taylor). She used to date his brother “Remy” but we quickly learn that he was involved in a car accident with his brother and so now we have our requisite dose of family baggage to explain why “Rule” is a bit of a commitment-phobe. Meantime, she is supposed to be dating millionaire drip “Gabe” (Michael Bradway) to keep her rather wealthy but venal mother sweet, but in the end it’s her bit of rough that she really craves. Can they sort things out and get past his fear of being called her boyfriend? There’s the odd bit of sensitively photographed sex and it does pay slight homage to the artistry of some creative tattooists but for the most part it’s a weakly constructed romantic will they/won’t they drama that didn’t really engage me at all. There is plenty of eye-candy on offer, including from the sparingly used, wooden as a picket fence, Alexander Ludwig as his elder brother “Rome” and Ella Balinska tries to inject a little bit of life into things as her best pal “Ayden” but neither Stokes nor Taylor do anything like enough with the, admittedly pedestrian, script or the story to bring this to life. Quite how it got a general release in the UK is, as Yul Brynner might have said, “a puzzlement “. It looks good and there are a few power ballads to help it along, but it’s really just a mediocre television movie, sorry.
