r 9 @RT00952237 08/18/2020 Tiresome to watch. 'Puncture Wounds' is a film that somewhat tries, but nothing really comes to fruition all that well. The story is a tad messy, the score is poor, the dialogue is iffy alongside a mostly disappointing cast list. I never felt Cung Le (John) wasn't trying, he was but I'm not sure he is lead actor worthy - his delivery isn't quite up to stretch here, given there's a lot of narration from his character; not helped by the writing, of course. Dolph Lundgren isn't even the usual Dolph Lundgren, which is quite something - a very 'relaxed' performance, despite the spree of destruction involving Hollis. Vinnie Jones (Bennet - one T according to the film's intro) is what you'd expect, he's solid enough at playing a bad guy. I'm all for mindless, combat-filled films but this doesn't even reach those levels. Rather dismal, unfortunately.

See more 02/10/2015 A tough-guy action thriller with most characters adhering to this whether they are good or bad. A lads movie that some will enjoy but it never reaches mediocrity.

The acting was a bit sketchy, but there was meaning behind the violence and the characters all played there part in this movie about revenge. Basically it's about a war veteran whose suffering with post traumatic stress and he ends up saving a girl from getting a beating in the parking lot of his hotel. The girl turns out to be a prostitute who works for Hollis (Dolph Lundgren), who isn't too happy about the guy taking out his men. To keep up his street cred, Hollis teaches the guy a lesson for messes with his business, which turns out to be a big mistake. It isn't a very deep and intelligent script, but you do end up sticking with the storyline, just to see how the whole mess pans out. The fighting scenes were OK but it still looked a bit cheap and the main character needs some more acting lessons. Average! Round-Up: What the hell was going on with that stupid wig and the ugly looking moustache on Dolph Lundgren. I've heard about actors getting into character, but that make-up was terrible. Anyway, Lundgren seems to be another one of those actors that hit the big time when he was young but now they can only manage to go straight to DVD. I quite liked him in the first Expendables but I haven't really seen him in anything amazing since then. The guy who plays the main character, Cung Le, also starred in the awful Man With The Iron Fists but he hasn't done anything else that major. You can actually tell that he hasn't starred in anything in this scale because his acting is quite stiff, like when the Rock first started out in the movie world. Anyway, if you want a no thrills type of movie without that much depth, then it's worth a watch. I recommend this movie to people who are into there action/thriller movies about a stressed out war veteran who takes on a drug lord after saving a girl from a beating. 3/10 See more Read all reviews
