The Hard Hit

First and foremost, what this movie lacks in depth, also lacks in containing a competent script with true acting. The storyline and characters felt one dimensional robotic and soulless. There is not one scene that felt well paced and the dialogue is choppy and as if lines were rehearsed without the element of true acting. With that, there is more cringy dialogue than action throughout the movie.

Another thing I noted is the "sound track". For the most part, it felt very generic and vanilla. Scenes that attempted to solicit any type of emotion utilized bland music that seemed to be taken from hallmark films or generic Arcade like music for sub par action sequences.

Long story short, I finished the movie to see if it would get even a smidge better as my family had rented it for movie night. And ultimately the movie got worse and felt longer than it's run time.

I love Richard T Jones in The Rookie so I was looking forward to this. He's only in it for about 3 minutes by the way and the rest of it looks like a student movie.

The concept has been done many times before. There's nothing new here.

The acting is appalling (especially by the lead actor). To say it is wooden would be generous.

Terrible script, terrible acting, terrible soundtrack, terrible directing, terrible stunts...you get the idea.

I'll tell you what this movie reminds me of: a low budget parody of a 1980's porn movie. There's a knock at the door, a buxom blonde answers the door and says "You must be the plumber". "Yes I am the plumber". That's kind of the level of acting on display here.

Save yourself the disappointment and find something else to watch.

I've literally never give reviews but this movie was so bad they should've paid me to watch it. There's no chemistry between all the characters and literally it looks like a five-year-old wrote it. If you want to do yourself a favor don't waste any more time than reading this review Because you're gonna be sorely disappointed. I'm very worried about the fact that I'll never be able to get the time back that I spent watching this horrible piece of work I should've get out my video camera and go ahead and film a movie because if somebody's getting paid for this junk I wish it was me I hope this helps somebody out.

If you were lucky enough to have seen 'The Lawnmower Man' (not the Stephen King version), directed by Murda Pain (no, I'm not joking), then congrats. You've seen one movie that is worse than 'The Hard Hit'. There is absolutely nothing about this movie that isn't terrible. I literally got up to use the bathroom in the beginning, during the scene where the Irish guy is with his family in the front yard. I was certain that this was a commercial for some sort of medication. The acting was atrocious, the dialogue worse. Even the music was embarrassing. I watched about 15 minutes before turning it off.

I would give this film a zero if I could. I can not think of a single redeeming thing about this film, actually yes I can the 75 minutes of run time, but even this felt more like 3 hours long. Everything about this film is bad. The plot, it almost has a very slow one which is so obvious its painful. The wooden acting is well wooden and awful in every way, the random wobble camera effect at least that makes you feel off balance so takes your mind off the film for a few seconds. The mind numbing back ground music, it's almost endless it will not just shut up and stop. All it needed to make it even worse if that is possible would have been a Steven Seagal guest appearance as a hero, actually that may have improved it just for the giggle factor.
