Featured reviews
This film tells the story of a male nurse who has to save his wife from dangerous criminals.
It has big name actors and is action packed. There are many fight scenes which should be thrilling. The soundtrack doesn't suit the film though. Editing is not as tight as it could have been, but it is an above average Netflix film.

With a few tweaks this film could be massively improved, sure it's the predictable unlikely buddy action movie, but that's ok it's a formula that has worked many times.. the two big issues here are the soundtrack and the editing.. a re-edit and for the large part an entirely new soundtrack it's a 7.
This movive reminds me of the 2004 flick Cellular.. it's action packed, brainless fun! Is it groundbreaking? No. Is the plot deep and thick with twists? Not at all. Yet, it's a great way to kill an hour and a half with enjoyable action, cool chases, a dose of humour mixed in that isn't forced like it is in alot of movies and shows these days. It's just a straight to the point good time! I'd recommend it to anyone looking to just kill a bit of time and have some fun in the process :)
Great Netflix movie to watch not sure why so many negative reviews really enjoyed this flick
I miss a time when you could look up a review for a movie, and read reviews from fans of that genre. Seems IMDB is no longer a place for that.
The plot was nothing mind blowing, but the action was constant, and the well-performed characters were good. I enjoyed it throughout. Why? Because I like action films. If you do too, and you can put your rational, sensible side away for 90 minutes, then you're going to enjoy Point Blank.
All in all this is a great action movie that harks back to the 90's "best of enemies", "victims of circumstance" romps with bullets and snot, and a heap of smashing stuff up.
