camille l 12/24/2020 Tout petit thriller britannique sans autre grande ambition que de surfer sur la vague Guy Ritchie, New Blood s'en sort plutôt pas mal, grâce à ses quelques scènes d'action pleine d'ironie, d'inventivité dû à un budget famélique, mais surtout grâce à son casting étonnant. Joe Pantoliano et Carrie-Anne Moss se retrouvent après Matrix dans des rôles de cruels méchants, tandis que Shawn Wayans joue un très bon second du héros. On y retrouve John Hurt en deus ex machina afin de conclure une intrigue qui commençait à partir dans le n'importe quoi. New Blood n'est pas un film très rigoureux, mais le premier film de Michael Hurst méritait un peu mieux que ce total oubli. See more 06/12/2020 I was Carrie Ann Moss body double See more Frances H 02/09/2013 The heart transplant, which is the crux of this movie, is a questionable point. Transplant organs are strictly regulated, and even if the twin brother volunteers his heart, whether a doctor and hospital would perform the transplant with a questionable donor is itself very shaky ground, in an already rather shaky plot. The twists were a bit too twisty, but John Hurt always gives a performance worth seeing. See more 10/19/2011 This is not a movie I would recommend. It had potential with a nice story but porly executed. The acting is... well nothing special and the dialoge seems so fake. See more 11/06/2010 It Was okay with some "wtf plot twists". Joe Pantoliano always do a great performance. See more 09/30/2010 Uhh... Where are everyone? I mean all the critics? No reviews? It was good IF someone asks about this movie :D See more Read all reviews
