One day, his estranged son drives to the camp for a visit -- but he's followed by Robert's old nemesis, Balzary (Chad Michael Murray, "One Tree Hill"). As the site is besieged by Balzary's attack squad, father and son retreat to a high-tech bunker.

C-
At onetime, Bruce Willis's presence boosted a small movie; lately, he's a liability. "It's an emergency alert," Willis's ex-C.I.A. agent yawns to his estranged son as though sirens mean the postman is at the door. Go to Full Review

Neither lead makes much of an impression, so it's left to Chad Michael Murray's borderline psychotic villain to take the wheel and give the drama some momentum. Go to Full Review

For an action film about U.S. muscle, Fortress sure is weak -- but it does have some unexpected entertainment value. Go to Full Review

Sam W Jul 26 One of Bruce Willis’ ‘aphasia’ movies, and it shows. It has a different take and setting for a mediocre lockdown/revenge story but the incompetence of everyone and everything defies belief, as does the overuse of shoddy special effects and drumming background music which I assume was intended to build suspense. Weak acting, cheap looking, and stilted cheesy dialogue, especially from Willis who looked to be just reading his lines. See more susie m Jun 24 This is one of the worst cheap movies Iv ever seen.Bruce Willis has only dumb one liner response to everything. I love the dorky girl running someone grabs her shirt, it falls off to show her boobs. Watching this for free and it’s not worth it.😊set look plastic. All around really crappy movie. See more Timothy E Apr 4 What happened to Bruce Willis. This movie is not like him. See more Rick M Feb 3 Pathetic in every way and at every level. This potty mouth absolute zero has no real plot, makes no sense, and has absolutely no value whatsoever. A total piece of crap. See more Marek C Dec 29 I watched about 20 minutes into this. This wasn't enough to tell whether this is an awful action movie or an awful parody thereof. See more Grymdrache 03/16/2024 Probably the worst acting and direction I've seen Bruce Willis work under. The overall story is pretty interesting, but the performances and the writing is worse the the Star Wars sequels. If you're a die hard (lol) Bruce Willis fan, add this one to your collection, but it's not worth watching. See more Read all reviews
