A blandly gritty piece of late-August mayhem that's as forgettable as its generic title.

Rated: .5/4

"Reprisal" is not a very good movie, but it leaves you with tantalizing hints that some people involved with it are capable of doing something much better.

Through it all, Willis looks like he's late to cash his check.

Noir City

The out-of-time iconography, decades-straddling style, and anywhere USA setting invite the audience to relish Reprisal's pulp ethos and appreciate the twists and turns of the ride as Doris unleashes chaos.

Cinemalogue

Thoroughly uninspired and laughably incoherent, this low-budget parade of cops-and-robbers clichés is an embarrassment for all involved.

"These people have been through enough," says a character in the film's final minutes, and you can't help but think he's talking about the audience.

Bruce Willis mesmo como coadjuvante tinha e sempre teve muita presença s2… Uma boa trama, como todo filme de ação exagerado e impossível, a forma de solução do mistério em torno do autor dos assaltos também foi meio que num passe de mágica, desconsiderando esses pequenos detalhes, um filme de ação policial e tiroteio razoável…

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

An acting no show masterclass by Bruce Wills this is a ridiculously dumb and boring crime thriller that is more laughable than thrilling

They lost me when five-plus police cruisers couldn't catch one bad guy on a motorcycle. The cops can't hit the broadside of a barn with their handguns, but everyone has endless rounds. It takes Bruce Willis (thrown into the show) to finally shoot the bad guy with a shotgun at close range.

This actually wasn't a bad movie at all, had a lot of suspense throughout. Why he knew so much about tactics know-how is his past job he had been in security before he was in banking. I really didn't miss Bruce being a big part of the movie it was good, and I strongly recommend watching it's a lot of fun!

Not nearly as bad as the reviews here would suggest. I've lost count of how many films I've given up on half way through. Reprisal kept my attention to the end. Other reviews talk of clichés but several are avoided here - for example the inevitable snapped twig, ringing phone or similar that gives away the hero watching the villain is avoided nicely here - the fact that it's avoided adding to the tension because you're convinced it's going to happen.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars
