Beckman: Im Namen der Rache

First off only ignoramuses would think that this is Christian film, that's just asinine. This was an action movie center around a man seeking redemption, vengeance and a struggle with being someone of faith without hypocrisy or contradiction. So all you self righteous zealots go sell all your goods and give to the poor. Back to the movie, a bit too long get to the point but this was a Taken, John Wick and a Boondock Saints surrogate. Good time killer. 3 stars for the effort. BTW, William Baldwin sucks major ass as an actor.

After reading the storyline I thought, this HAS to be a comedy. Ex hit man turned preacher has his daughter kidnapped. The moral dilemma he must face. I am an ex hit man, I must kill these people and rescue my daughter but wait I am now a preacher, what ever shall I do !!! Should I pray for her return ? Should I turn my bible into ninja stars and smite these unholy heathens !!! Unfortunately this is not a comedy, how ever you might get a laugh out of it.

For those who like suspense and action movies, check this out for sure! There's plenty of movies like this that are just empty shoot em up, chase the bad guys, blah, blah, blah junk. This movie has the drama, action and suspense along with a good spiritual message. A must see for all!

Well we just finished this movie after giggling at the trailer and imagining David A. R. White thinking himself a blockbuster action hero. Ooof.

The script was abysmal, the acting was sub-par, but the puffs of blood after every gunshot like they were done by the MS spray-paint effect was a nice touch.

Just get a different haircut already.

Overview: Beckman (2020) is an action-packed film that delivers intense fight sequences and a revenge-driven storyline. The film revolves around Aaron Beckman, a former hitman who turns his life around and becomes a pastor, only to be pulled back into his violent past when his adopted daughter is kidnapped by a dangerous cult. While the premise is intriguing, the movie leans more towards action than thriller, with some moments lacking the suspense needed to elevate it to a standout genre film.

Strengths & Limitations: The action sequences are well-choreographed, and the film succeeds in portraying the emotional conflict of its protagonist. However, the thriller aspect feels underdeveloped, which may leave some viewers wanting more tension and depth in the narrative. For someone who enjoys action films, Beckman is a decent one-time watch, but it doesn't break new ground in its genre. The movie leaves room for a sequel, but it may not generate the anticipation needed for viewers to eagerly await the continuation.

Final Thoughts: Beckman is an average film that works as a straightforward revenge story but doesn't fully capitalize on its potential. For fans of action films, it's entertaining enough for a casual watch but might fall short for those seeking a gripping thriller. Overall, it earns a 5/10, primarily for its action and a solid central performance.
