Applying to same job through a recruiter and directly

A recruiter put me up for a job I'm very interested in, they said the firm was reviewing resumes and got back to them with the "no's" and I wasnt on the no list. I've been trying to follow-up about once a week and the recruiter has been radio silent now for a couple weeks (and I don't trust the recruiter...).

Is it a bad move to just apply to the role directly through the firm's website as well? There's a posting.
