Ignatiy Vishnevetsky AV Club This is the kind of material that can't be elevated without help from behind the camera. Instead, the actors are left to gesture aimlessly through a stupefacient fog of clichs and insipid direction. Rated: D May 5, 2016 Full Review Noel Murray Los Angeles Times "Term Life" is cleanly plotted and tautly paced, but it's never as fun as it should be. Apr 30, 2016 Full Review David Ehrlich IndieWire An asinine movie that has the premise for a thriller, the tone of a half-hearted neo-noir, and the plot of a daddy-daughter dramedy. Rated: D Apr 29, 2016 Full Review Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue ... a clichd noir wannabe script that manages only some meager laughs amid the generic shootouts and chase sequences. Aug 5, 2016 Full Review Jeffrey M. Anderson Common Sense Media This labored, failed thriller feels like a collection of odd puzzle pieces that don't fit but have been nonetheless forced together. Even the great cast members seem squeezed into the wrong roles. Rated: 1/5 Jul 1, 2016 Full Review Brian Orndorf Blu-ray.com A mess, and a seemingly needless one, watching a larger tale of survival pointlessly whittled down to fragments of reason to make the feature play as fast as possible. Rated: D+ May 4, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews

carlos t Minha opinião: A #estoria de um ladrão que vende planos para roubo. E um dos roubos da errado e o irmão de mafioso do trafico e morto, e ele vai para vingança. Mas quem matou são um grupo de policiais corruptos. E começa uma corrida de uma atrás do outro. E Nisso Vince tem uma filha Hailee, uma adolecente com os problemas de adolecente. E o pai busca rendenção com a filha. E toda a trama é construída. Até que no final, toda verdade é revelada. Creio que atuação melhor foram dos bandidos. Vince foi razoável e haille acredito que uma de suas primeiras atuações. Roteiro: razoavel Vale apena assistir? Sim razoavel Nota: 5 Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review jelisije j A movie that surprised me of how good this movie actually was. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review morigu p It's not going to win any awards. If you want to watch a mind numbing, plot knowing, semi decent, dare I say crime thriller. It definitely passed the time. This movie hit all the clichés. Rebellious teen, trying to make up for lost time father, crooked cops that are way too stupid to even be cops, and the ultimate baddie who in the end turns the other cheek. Then watch it. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member I gave this movie the extra half star because Hailee Steinfeld and Jordi Mollá gave decent performances. Other than that this movie's over-played plot is riddled with holes and has been done better many times over with more palatable protagonists. Vince Vaughn is a tall and awkward actor and his performance as a "hard guy" is uncomfortable, he should stick to comedy. This movie is unnecessary and instead of watching it you could watch any other heist/crimey action movie. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member put a five to see if it gets the score up. Edit: it didn't Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member It's not horrible, but it's main problem is it's very forgettable. Even then, I wouldn't mind watching this again Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Read all reviews
