“Café 404” is for you if like a group of decent people who discover a bag of loot and four dead bodies in a restaurant on the skids who then fight over the loot the dead bodies left behind and fight even more when 5 kilos of cocaine are also found. As one of the apparently decent people, Nico (Antonis Tsiotsopoulos) says, “Where there are drugs involved there will always be someone looking for them.” How true that is here.
Several layers of bad guys appear and you’ve seen these burly thugs before but the mob boss is brilliantly played by Vassilis Koukalani who is smooth as cyanide laced butter. A ruthless gentleman type and as I say almost worth the price of admission.
Aside from Koukalani the rest of the cast is unimpressive and yes the script is lacking in originality. Viewer boredom may be augmented to misery with an annoying closing song.
A forgettable unimaginative effort.
