In a movie named "The Mastermind" you'd be excused for expecting anything that required forethought. You would be disappointed. At best, the storyline of this movie was half completed before they gave up on it and just decided it was a good place to put some end credits.
The music absolutely never matches the mood of the movie, and at one point you decide that the next time you see a person playing a drum set, you will in fact make them wear the snare drum. I've never been angry at background music before.
This movie is beyond boring. Never see it. If someone suggests you watch it, stop being their friend.
