This movie was better than I expected but I did not get the same rush out of Bruce Willis' performance as I did from Charles Bronson in the original. Bronson was not a great actor, but he exhibited the pain he experienced better than Willis and also the revenge. This version seemed more by-the-numbers and did not move me. This is a movie through which you are supposed to experience the hero's pain and revenge vicariously. I felt it with Bronson. I loved it when he put the bad guys away. But Willis just shot people like he was going down a check list/ It could be worth seeing if you did not see the zBronson version. No, I take that back. Rent the Bronson version instead.
This was a mishmash of a movie. Wooden acting. Unrealistic. Bad plotting. Starts with a woman typing frantically on computer during a download. Why? Then people get blown up and killed for no apparent reason. Then the movie begins with a contrived situation about bullying so some kid can go on a ride along because it's in the script. After that, you have the tried and tired daughter and estranged father conflict. I like Nicolas cage. I think he's made some great movies -- i.e. Face/Off and Family Man -- but nothing worthwhile in at least 10 years. And worst of all, the acting was like planks of wood interacting. I could smell the ham from my computer. Someone obviously owed someone else a big favor otherwise this movie would never have been green lit.
