Reféns na Ponte

The villain was horrible. I've seen better acting in my tiny high school drama plays. Cheesy action movie sure, but was half watchable. Mason ruined the whole thing because he was completely unbelievable with every line he said. Decent action. Decent damsel in distress. Decent hero. Great action and visuals. But the villian was absolutely atrocious. I hope I never see this actor in another film ever. Literally every other aspect of the movie was built for a fun shoot em up action movie. Movie was fun except for the scenes where mason has any dialogue. I'd rather see papa Smurf or Barney or the Duolingo animation as the villian and it would be more believable.

Remember those Saturday shows? Low budget, bad lines, barely acted? They were kinda fun and it might even generate a light or two. Well, get ready for the same thing here.

The AI computer generated scenes are obvious and the lines are corny. The acting is mediocre at best and I was always 5 seconds from just turning it off. But, I stuck with it just to see if there would be any redeeming qualities to rate anything more than a 4 or 5 at best. Nope, but the popcorn was good.

Netflix has done it again. They have created a hype machine that makes them think they have achieved success, meanwhile the ratings indicate we should have just passed on it.

A group of highly-trained military operators led by Romeo (Mason Gooding) blows up two ends of a bridge. Their target is Doc (Dichen Lachman), a prisoner on a transport. They take the other trapped motorists hostage. Among them is former Army Ranger Eric Daniels (Dylan Sprouse) and his younger sister Madeleine.

This reminds me of that Sly movie in a tunnel from the 90's. The situation is artificial. I don't buy Gooding as the big bad. He is playing Romeo like a yappy chihuahua. I do understand that he's the manic cartoon villain, but I doubt anyone sane would follow him. In fact, Dichen Lachman would be a better big bad. Dylan is fine, but he's not the problem.

Not a fan of the story and honestly the acting was very cringy at times. Hard to watch without laughing at times. Mason Gooding was very over the top and reaching at times with his performance, did not enjoy watching him act what so ever. This was a very bad attempt to recreate die hard lol. Bridge scene so un realistic, why would a groups of criminals want to lock down a bridge where they have no exit and purposely allow them selves to get surrounded l even if they were making a statement. Poor concept, poor story line, poor acting, just over all not a movie I will ever watch again. Normally don't leave reviews but this one was tough to watch.

Seriously, who are the numbskulls rating this higher than 1 star. The Movie is trash from the very beginning. The dialogue is written by a 2 year old. I am so disappointed I really enjoy Dichen Lachman but she messed up here accepting a role in this dumpster movie. The idea could be good for a thriller, however the director and producer screwed this one up badly. A lot of the scenes are animation, and don't look real at all. Such a cheap and low effort at making a movie and insulting the viewers.

I am less than 5 minutes in and can't take it anymore. There should be a law to stop this low quality of material being released.
