“The Painter” never seems like more than a rote shoot-’em-up inadequately juiced by the kind of shocking revelations that are all contrived verbal explication.

Culture Mix

The Painter is such inept garbage, this forgettable action flick about CIA agents doesn’t have any international CIA activities in its main plot. What you’ll see is a lot of bad acting and supporting actor Jon Voight in some laughable disguises.

CBR

A film that is extremely difficult to take seriously but not nearly interesting enough to make a good joke out of.

Rated: 2/10

"'The Painter' seems destined for Tubi, where it may indeed earn a fanbase. The film clearly sets up a sequel, so a second franchise installment might be more creatively ambitious, even if its existence on paper doesn’t feel earned."

The Painter has no idea what to do with its central action concept of the visual and hearing impaired using those traits to their advantage in combat;

This is the kind of movie that reveals how bad it is within the first five minutes. Bad acting, horrible writing, implausible, cinematography feels cheap. Recommend watching if only to marvel at and understand what a bad movie looks like.
