    Boring and pointless movie

    Soooo disappointed after watching this movie!

    We thought it was going to be great, because of Bruce Willis.

    But not at all... Fight scenes are lame and not slightly realistic, the car pursuit scene is lame as well. We didn't clearly understand the story.

    Also, the hero was not charismatic at all, neither was he convincing.

    Nothing in this movie was worth our time. We were three people, one of us was toying with his phone, the other one with the dogs, and myself I fell asleep.

    Do not watch this movie.

    You've been warned.

    with this cast what could go wrong (spoiler, a lot)

    I was really looking forward to this film. The cast is excellent and the trailer looked promising. But boy was I disappointed. Of course the expectation was high and so the movie experience even worse (I almost gave the film 3 stars).

    In short why this film wasn't for me:

    I didn't care about the main character / The "Lolita" girl made the film worse (and it shouldn't) / The bad guys are really stupid (like in a B movie) / The "good" guy makes ONLY stupid decisions (why? why didn't he ...)

    ... you get the point

    When 50 Cent is one of the best characters in a movie something is really wrong.

    At the time of writing the IMDb cast mentions the main actor really late - you could not guess it (by the way it's not Bruce Willis)
    quasides

    Bruce need Money

    and hes doing anything to get it.

    I have to 100% with hp-anzingers review but want to add a few critics poinits.

    It started promising but it turned badly pretty quickly just to go down more and more.

    Really this Movie actually gets constantly worse with every Minute as it didn't make less sense every Minute.

    The Final Showdown is also the worst Moment.

    Beside no Key Element of that Story did make any Sense or the stupidity around everything - Why, in Gods name cant they even get the Technical Aspects right.

    Any 12 Year old watching Youtube for 2 Weeks can do better Gunfihgtscenes and i really thought basic gun safety is a standard in Movies. But how are we supposed to believe a role which is supposed to be ex military later prof. killer if he cant even keep his finger of the trigger. - This just as an example of countless Eyehurting things during those scenes.

    The Hole Movie is like B Movie Acting, c Movie Story, b Movie Gunsfights and Schoolyard Fistfights.

    But maybe i just got it wrong, this is a Zombie Movie where everyone already got their Brains eaten up :))

    Alright action, alright acting, nothing special.

    This movie is not horrible, but certainly not cinematic gold either. I'm going short for this review, because there ain't much to say.

    The story is, uhm, very straight forward. But we don't really need the story to be all that, in this kind of movie.

    The action is actually not bad. The shootouts are pretty good. There's real blank-firing guns, good sound design, blood-packets, the works. The action choreography is not exceptional, but alright.

    Bruce Willis, who's in the front on the cover, is not in it very much. John Cusack is on the cover, but also barely in it. Pretty obvious that these actors are mostly bait, to get people to see it. If Bruce Willis is in it, can't be all bad, right!? Well, yes it can, but this is OK.

    Jason Patric does a pretty good job as a bad ass, I think. Seems like he got some weapons training, he is believable or the most part.

    Movie is kind of reminiscent of Taken, although a lot weaker. We don't really care much about the characters.

    Take it for what it is, an action thriller with a couple of decent shoot outs, and you won't be too disappointed.

    Ummm..... As I am writing this as I am watching the film......

    ... Means I have lost the will to live. Formulaic, boring, and nothing going for it - even Bruce and John. Sad that they have added their names to this. Misleading and just pretty damn awful - although I am sure that the B actors are all performing their socks off.....l Watch if you have nothing better to do. Other than that - avoid. I am sure I could have done something better with the last 90 minutes of my life.

    Oh I have to add more lines..... OK.... Ummm.... Guns, druggies, bad acting, underwhelming locations, more bad acting, odd cars, bad filming, awful director, terrible lighting, strange Japanese man, ... Just odd. Could have been great and I am so disappointed. No spoilers - because you can predict the film start to finish.

      Omar: People that have limbs that are amputated still feel the pain in that limb, even though it's not there. That's the pain that I feel. Every time you look at me... I see his face, I feel that pain, and I see him looking back at me.
