A film so bad it shames American cinema itself. And it wasn’t even made in Hollywood!

Rated: 1/5

Variety

Michael Polish’s film gamely tries to compensate for unspectacular production values with a lot of action -- but its staging is pedestrian at best.

[Stallone's] work here makes his appearance in “The Expendables 4” seem focused and committed by comparison.

It's not unwatchable, but all rather dispiriting.

Creatively bankrupt on every level, Alarum is a mindless mess of an action film that goes through the motions until its very lazy and abrupt ending. The performances are never believable in this moronic story about spies fighting over a flash drive.

Story is boring and full of plot holes. CGI is noticeably bad. The muzzle flashes, blood splatters and bullet hits look like they where taken out of an asset pack and layered on top of the footage without being properly blended. Something you'd see in an early 2000s YouTube video. Real amateur. It's watchable but you'll wish you didn't bother by the end. I'm starting to think I shouldn't expect a movie to be good just because Stallone is in it. I don't think he has any more to give. Maybe he should just retire before he tarnishes his reputation further.

This film is so dumb and lazy. Here's an example, for no reason Stallone shoots a electric poll to shut out the lights in the hotel he and Eastwood are holed up in. Cut to the bad guys outside and the lights are still on everywhere. This lack of attention to detail exists throughout the film, including in the writing.

Stellar cast in a somewhat hollow movie. Lots of bullets, blood, "action", adventure, drama, more drama, brave attempt but not very convincing. Good cinematography, the visual effects are not plausible though. Such a talented cast and production resources but somehow squandered to produce a somewhat mediocre movie

I made an account just to say how bad the film is, the graphic effects are awful, the muzzle flash,the blood, bullet holes etc and the story is a mess, also the bad guys are obviously ex storm troopers

Never reviewed a film before but this is so bad I don't know why they wasted plastic to put it on. Crack shot mercenaries couldn't hit a barn door and motorbikes that can't catch up with people running. Cgi terrible. Feel sort of sorry it's come to this for Stallone
