Audience Member While being quite unoriginal the film definately benefits from the talent of the two main actors, who both do their parts very well. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member I'll just say, I wouldn't have watched this if Til Schweiger wasn't in it, and leave it at that. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Horrible acting, silly dialogue and script. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Terrible dialogue. Terrible effects. Terrible plot. Terrible performances. Terrible SFX. Terrible ADR. Mr. Schweiger, I hope you only did this for a paycheck. This is crap. Also, why the heck does everyone have different accens? It seems out of place for a movie spoken in English and taking place in America. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member A slick, fast-paced, very cool and exciting action-packed thriller. It's smart, surprisingly funny and wonderfully character driven all the way through and delivers some sharp gun battles and fight scenes. A fun, explosive, and stylish action film with energy to spare. Til Schweiger and Chazz Palminteri are terrific, they have some great moments and show some great depth to their characters. Schweiger has the presence and subtly of a great action hero. An awesome retreat to old-school action movie excitement. It's a great film that has a surprising twist at the end. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Nothing legendary here, but it was a solid action flick that didn't recieve enough attention. The script was direly cheesy, but it had some good lines here and there regarding ethics and redemption. With the exceptions of the starring performers, the acting was pretty bad. All of the villains were just so stereotypical and the actors didn't add any dynamic to the characters. I thought this film would revolve around action scenes like many bad action flicks, but it turned out to be more plot-based. The action scenes themselves were quite standard, but there were a couple events (like that van John randomly hotwires at the cafe). Far too many lucky saves by unseen allies too, that trick was used far too much. The idea that the film was based on was actually pretty good. I thought it was quite unique, it blended Stolkholm Syndrome with some good old double-crossing and it had some pleasant results. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
