Amy Nicholson New York Times 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. Rated: C- Dec 16, 2021 Full Review Bobby LePire Film Threat Fortress moves at a slick pace, and its action scenes are most thrilling. Rated: 9.5/10 Jan 27, 2022 Full Review Tara McNamara Common Sense Media For an action film about U.S. muscle, Fortress sure is weak -- but it does have some unexpected entertainment value. Rated: 2/5 Jan 5, 2022 Full Review Tom Meek Cambridge Day Bruce Willis appeared in eight films in 2021, of which I've have the displeasure to witness half... Rated: 1/4 Dec 23, 2021 Full Review Brian Orndorf Blu-ray.com If you thought hearing about the details of cryptocurrency was painful in real life, wait until it's processed through Horsnail's deathly dull screenplay, which tries to turn arguments about digital wallets into nail-biting cinema.

Grymdrache 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. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/16/24 Full Review CuriousK The movie could have been called "Bomb Shelter". The combat readiness and coordination among security personnel is almost non existent. Why is the "Fortress" so far from where they live, requiring a long journey through a jungle to get to it??? Rated 1 out of 5 stars 12/30/23 Full Review John B One of the most tedious wastes of my time i have watched. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/06/23 Full Review Daniel M This is absolute garbage. How this stuff gets made is beyond comprehension. Cheap, nasty, predictable, Willis at the bottom of the dung heap with this one. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/07/23 Full Review Matthew D It's a shame that Bruce Willis fell to doing all these terrible direct to DVD quality movies. You can tell he's never really present on the same set as anyone because of all the cutaways. The plot is incomprehensible and the action is very dull for what little there is of it. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 11/28/23 Full Review Steve D Good cast and not much else. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 11/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews
