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.

Don't be fooled by the 10 ratings. Obviously that was seeded by the movie team. The 1 ratings are the authentic reviews. The acting is horrendous and cheap. Most of the time, the actors have a slight smirk on their face as if trying to make themselves look tough and unafraid. Their expressions don't seem real and it reminds you that they're acting, really bad acting. The music score at times doesn't really vibe with the scenes. The fight scenes don't seem realistic. You can actually see the step by step in the choreography with the pauses. The plot sounds good but is executed poorly. The camera work looks like a school project for cinematography.

I have never in my life seen such a pathetically bad movie. Stilted,wooden, acting doesn't begin to describe the performances in this POS. It's difficult to believe that any thinking person would finance this thing. The only reason it has one star is that there is no provision for a zero, or negative numbers, which this so richly deserves. Any casting director who has the misfortune to have to watch this, and still hires anyone from this thing, should be tossed out of the profession and never work in film production again. An AI chatbot could write a better script than was used in this pathetic excuse for a movie.

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.

Absolutely awful, I know that it's low budget, but c'mon

Awful acting, dreadful music, a waste of 1 hour 16 minutes of my life.

So predictable and the characters are massively stereotyped and it's denegrating, Irish person, Black person, Chinese Person, it's like people of individual races can only perform one task 😡

Had to Google the lead character as thought he was putting an Irish accent on, turns out he isn't, it's really that bad and his acting is so wooden 😥

Even the action scenes aren't what you'd consider to be real action scenes, awful

Don't waste your time, there are better, dreadful movies out there 😂
