Dbtb G Ducks, those familiar inhabitants of ponds, lakes, and rivers, are a diverse group of waterfowl adapted for both aquatic and terrestrial life. Belonging to the family Anatidae, they share ancestry with swans and geese, exhibiting a range of sizes, colors, and behaviors across their many species. From the iconic mallard with its iridescent green head to the smaller, more agile teal, ducks showcase nature's artistry in their plumage. Their webbed feet propel them through water with ease, while their broad, flattened bills are perfectly suited for filter-feeding, dabbling for aquatic vegetation, or even catching small insects. Many duck species undertake impressive migrations, navigating vast distances between breeding and wintering grounds. Courtship rituals can be elaborate, involving intricate displays of plumage and vocalizations. Beyond their ecological roles, ducks hold a significant place in human culture, appearing in folklore, art, and as a source of food. Observing their playful antics on the water or the sight of a flock in flight offers a connection to the natural world, reminding us of the beauty and adaptability of these fascinating creatures. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/01/25 Full Review Charles T Clichéd? Yes Run of the mill? Yes Formulaic? Yes Story line? Average Director? Average Cinematography? Slightly about average Acting skills? Above average Fighting skills of Rose or stunt double? Above average Story flaw detected: How did her niece know that the Ruby Rose character is her aunt in a scene where she helps her niece find Jasper the cat? Conclusion: If you're expecting a meal at a Michelin star restaurant, forget it. This is like having a quick meal at a McDonald's because you're hungry. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 10/20/24 Full Review Marc Z This is a decent action adventure film with some redeeming qualities. The story of a "Doorman" with an extraordinary set of skills, and unusual past makes for a some good elements. Ruby Rose is decent in the lead role; however, she really doesn't carry the film like a Bruce Willis in Die Hard, or Charles Theron in Atomic Blonde. Simon Rhee did a good job coordinating the stunts and fights or short time and a low budget. Jean Reno is the strongest part of the movie. he has great screen presence. The problem with the film is not that it is a low budget action film, but that it looks like one too often throughout. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/08/24 Full Review Test T I'm watching this on DVD right now as I type, and I shouldn't be. The opening scene of the car ambush in the woods was great. Then, it nose dived into characterless filler which is why I got bored and started typing this review. I'm watching a family of four who I know nor care anything about making small talk and having dinner in a dimly lit New York apartment. And now, with the help of subtitles, some mean looking foreign gentlemen are threatening an elderly stroke victim in a neighbouring flat. Whatever next? I think they should all go for a nice long drive through the woods again where the movie was exciting! I'm loosing so much interest, I'm about to switch it off and watch another DVD. Seriously, this film is chronic. Wow, that layer change pause was exciting. That's it - I'm done, show me The Door Man! Another 20p wasted. I'll take it back to the charity shop next time I'm in town. Review over. Definitely not recommended. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/24 Full Review Philip L I actually enjoyed this film. I like Ruby Rose as a presence and think she brings a certain visual esthetic to her roles. The movie entertained me thoroughly. I thought it was mostly fun with some heart added in.
