“Pawn Shop Chronicles” is a 2013 action/comedy/thriller with an impressive cast starring Paul Walker (The Fast and the Furious), Elijah Wood (The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring), Matt Dillion (You, Me and Dupree), Vincent D’Onofrio (Full Metal Jacket), DJ Qualls (The New Guy), Norman Reedus (The Walking Dead), and Brendan Fraser (The Whale).

“Pawn Shop Chronicles” is an anthology featuring three different stories revolving around a pawn shop. It features a man who finds his wife’s ring who he believes to be dead, and it results on him going on a wild chase. A meth head who sells his shotgun, and it turns out he needs it. Finally, an Elvis impersonator who is just looking for a lucky break and sells his gold chain that he claims was owned by the King himself.

I haven’t heard of this movie before, but I saw it on Tubi and gave it a shot only because of the loaded cast. I wasn’t sure what to expect, so I didn’t have a bar set going in. The movie and stories are pretty crazy. There’s violence, explosions, blood, and comedy. It even has Brendan Fraser as Elvis, it has it all. All the stories are intertwined, which I always find cool when movies do that. It’s a good hidden gem. I give it a 7/10.
