Fortress - Stunde der Abrechnung

Given that we now know he has dementia/ mental impairment, it's a shame Bruce Willis was allowed to act in this film. It was sad to see him perform in this film, but this isn't Willis acting. This was a sick person who is no longer himself.

The rest of the film was a low budget disaster. Bad acting, cheesy plot with holes like Swiss cheese. It's awful. The fact that a secure compound is breeched and people are walking around like it's a picnic is just awful. A base under attack and everyone is just hanging out as they get shot. Just goofy and totally unbelievable. A military installation and no backups coming in. No overwhelming force called in to repel a little group of insurgents. Just bad. The film in no way resembles real life. It's so bad it's almost funny.

This. Crap. Should. Be. Burned.

There is NOTHING to recommend this movie. WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE IN THIS MOVIE? Was this meant as a joke? I mean, think of anything bad you've ever seen, then put Bruce Willis in it and there you go. CRAP with Bruce Willis.

I am guessing he's paying for Demi's toyboy and really needs the money. That HAS to be the only explanation he made this movie. Maybe he lost a bet that he couldn't make a worse movie then the worst one ever made and decided, after reading the "script" (you have to wonder if there was a script for this or did the "actors" just say whatever came to mind?) that he could make the worst movie ever made and still walk away with a paycheck?

DO. NOT. WATCH. THIS. GARBAGE.

This movie was so bad I don't even know where to start... the over acting, the terrible one liners, the dialogue, the script, Bruce's froggy voice, it all sucks. I have no idea why this movie was ever made and no question, its not even worth a few minutes of your time. I love a good "cheesy" flick once in a while but crikey this was bad. Put it this way Hudson Hawk is better than this thing... It's like the cast was trying to make a bad movie or something... Its so bad even Nicolas Cage and John travolta passed it up... I don't know what else to say other than this flick is nothing more than another warm moist turd... Flush.

Bruce Willis is still a great actor, but there is only so much a great actor can do to save an inferior movie. Imdb rating of 3.2, that'll predict not the highest quality possible, to put it politely. Especially the supporting actors are way below average. The special effects tend to look somewhat cheap as well. Lack of suspense is another topic...

BUT...

At an (excrucially) important sidenote, let us not forget WHY we are watching Bruce Willis movies to begin with. We watch Bruce Willis movies because of DIE HARD (1988). THE ONE AND ONLY BIGGEST ACTION AMERICAN ACTION CLASSIC OF THE CENTURY.

This classic is still standing strong after more than 30 years. Millions of people still REwatch it during every Christmas holiday. Recently a petition was launched to rename Nakatomi Plaza into DIE HARD plaza.

A life time achievement award for Bruce Willis is in the making.

DIE HARD (1988) NEVER DIES but is still ALIVE AND KICKING IN 2022. Happy New Year!

Man oh man. This one is BAD.

Willis does not care anymore. Perhaps it wasnt enough money, he was constipated, or having a stroke.

His acting is plain. Barely moves around, and speaks without emotion, like reciting lines in a play you just dont want to appear.

Action scenes are so shaky, that you cant even figure out whats going on.

And the characters ? Wow. The worst offender, Ken, is so annoying that youll be dissapointed that he doesnt get killed.

Bruce Willis is the new Steven Seagal. Barely moves, barely acts, and we are supposed to believe he is the only one who can save them all.

I kind of like some cringeworthy movies. But this one, is just BAD. (and there is a sequel coming.. :S)
