Implacable

This was a standard action flick where one guy takes on a bunch of thugs to save a young girl. It's like Taken but not as good. I was entertained. The detective guy was so cheesy that I liked him. The only person that could have acted better was the young girl.

I will now repeat what I just said to reach the character count.

This was a standard action flick where one guy takes on a bunch of thugs to save a young girl. It's like Taken but not as good. I was entertained. The detective guy was so cheesy that I liked him. The only person that could have acted better was the young girl... . . . . . .

A basic revenge action flick. I've always liked Dermot... he's embraced the straight to DVD/B-movie flicks in his later years. Fahey went the B-movie route years ago (I was always surprised he didn't make it bigger than he has). There are plenty of holes in the pretty much non-existent/basic plot, but it was't terrible. The more brutal action sequences were reminiscent of the early Seagal stuff... before he gained 200lbs and slapped that ridiculous rug on his head!

The only really bad part was the executive producer inserting himself into the movie as the detective... he's absolutely terrible. No screen prescence at all. He looks like he's just reading lines. That was a bad call... enough so that I looked it up to see who he was. When I saw how bad he was compared to EVERYONE else, I figured he was involved behind the scenes... and I was right. I don't mean to be harsh (I'm sure he's a great guy), but he needs to stop trying to get in front of the cameras.

It was no "Death Wish", but it wasn't a total waste of time. I made it through the entire film and the action scenes were decent.

Ruthless is directed by Art Camacho and stars Dermot Mulroney and Jeff Fahey.

What should've been a competent Taken/ Death Sentence ripoff instead becomes one of the most poorly made and laughably incompetent movies I've seen this year. Dermot Mulroney stars as Harry a high school wrestling coach whose teenager daughter was murdered. He takes matters into his own hands when one of his female students is kidnapped and sold into a child trafficking ring in Las Vegas by her mother's abusive boyfriend.

Aside from numerous plot holes this movie has (like Mulroney's character not getting CPS involved from the start.) and the horrible dialogue and artificial supporting cast of actors (excluding Jeff Fahey) where it feels like this is their first ever acting gig. Director Art Camacho has been working in the industry for years as a stunt coordinator so for him to deliver a movie on this level is just sad. He ain't no David Leitch or Chad Stahelski unfortunately. Also I have to mention for a movie called Ruthless Mulroney's character isn't ruthless at all here and doesn't kill anyone he just breaks a lot of arms and fingers. Granted I should've known what I was getting into because most films that are distributed by Saban Films are on this level or worse but I was at least expecting something more competent than this.

If there's any reason to watch this movie it's for Dermot Mulroney who has always been one of those actors who consistently delivers good performances in everything they do but never really had a breakout role. He elevates the bad material he's given here the best he can but there's only so much he can do. He deserved a better action vehicle for himself. I can only hope he had a better time making this movie than I and probably anyone else will have watching it.

A man with skills(a tp agent/a school coach) go after a criminal organization that deal human trafficking to rescue his(daughter/student). He has support from a cop and also some guy who sells technology stuff. In the end, he rescues the girls and tears apart the organization.

Well, the plot is obviously a copy of the great TAKEN, including even the senior hero - a man too old to perform the task in hand. It is not bad, has a little action, but the drama is lame and the actors...apart from Mulroney and Fahey, are pretty lame.

Not a complete waste of time, but you already saw this before. And more than once. Disappointed with the end - i was expected some vengeance.

Although this is not a terrible movie, it was clearly written for, and exclusively meant to be watched, by middle aged fathers. The best way that I could describe this would be as a guys version of a Hallmark crime drama, trying to remake Taken. The action was alright, not exactly believable, but satisfying; the plot, if you can really call it that, was expected but still watchable; and the acting, while bad, was still campy and mildly enjoyable/watchable. Honestly, one of the weirdest parts of the movie, that made it hardest to watch, was the fact that so many of the actors clearly had veneers, and it was weirdly obvious that they did.

If you are a middle aged man looking for a tv movie version of Taken then this is the movie for you, if you're anyone else then maybe give this a pass.
