Better Than Sex
The director, Jonathan Teplitsky, teamed up with barrister come novelist and debut screenwriter Chris Nyst for his second film after Better Than Sex. Gettin' Square doesn't actually mean getting even, in criminal parlance it means going straight
Comparisons are best avoided but Gettin' Square does have similarities to Reservoir Dogs. It uses the world of violent crime to explore the eternal predicament of the individual and society but whereas Quentin Tarantino's characters are drawn deliberately from other movies, Gettin' Square is based on real life.
