Truly Dreadful Film

Really Surprised!

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

"This will all be over with soon." Conrad Miller (Goss) is a marine in possession of classified government information. When he leaves his post to investigate what he has many people are upset. Now, he is not only trying to evade the CIA, but the LAPD, a Russian agent and an assassin who not only want the information for themselves, but him dead as well. I thought this was actually better than I was expecting it to be. Most of these action B-movies are identical and formulaic. While I can't say this one wasn't I will say it was entertaining enough to keep me watching. Luke Goss is a good choice for this genre of action but even he can't make a movie like this better than it really is. The movie itself is entertaining and I have seen much worse, but its really nothing amazing or anything to rush out and see. Overall, entertaining enough but really is the kind of movie to just put in and veg out to without having to really think. I give this a B-.

A lot of good actors end up carrying films like this. Sometimes they hit on a good one, with a good budget. I think it's just a matter of the popularity of the actor. Tony Jaa in the protector for example. His martial arts and acting was a lot better than in Furious 7. Heat with Robert De Niro was all star and therefor a hit. The expendables however..an exception. Too many actors competing.Jason Statham is very popular but Crank(either one) was lousy. Luke Goss, although a good actor, seems to get canceled out when playing next to a better known tough guy even if it's a lousy movie. Popularity or just not being well known enough. What would happen if you threw in say Jason Statham instead of RAZ? Might be even, might not. Would be better though, but try getting a hold of Jason and your budget go'es up 50%. Altogether i give i give this one a 7 only because i watch movies depending on the actor who's in it. By the way, i've never even heard of RAZ until this movie.

Writers put many irrelevant things things in this movie to make it a torture. Unnecessary action. What was Conrad Miller doing in those motels and even if he had entered a wrong motel, why writers engaged him in freeing the slave girls & killing the human - traffickers plus arresting a cop too?. What was connection of these events with containing secret government information by Conrad Miller which he was alleged to have sold to Russians or other buyers? What was the need to involve an AWOL officer into Municipal Law things (Police / slave girls / human smugglers)? If Laura Wilder was a Russian agent and Conrad Miller, an American Agent and they were a married couple and both a spy of enemy countries? Then what a pathetic outcome of the movie was? Writer mixed many things up and viewer is far from getting near to it what was going in the movie.I saw many Action movies, spy movies, army officers movies but this was the most terrible and unpleasant experience for me. Torture for a viewer. Waste of time & money. Pathetic plot, characters and events poorly connected with each other, result-less events in the movie & real thing- fate of an AWOL left almost unattended?You really don't believe that movie has ended when it ends on screen. Pathtic & absurd.

This movie is worth a watch, neglect my 5 rating. Here's why:I really liked camera work. Good cameras were used for this movie and really good cameramen. It's really nice to watch.Luke Goss was pretty good in this movie. He's good at playing tough guys. But there were a few other actors that were not that good.The story is not very good, but it's OK. It's not fast paced, but still pretty intense. However sometimes it's hard to understand what's happening.There's a lot of thing happening in this movie, so it's quite hard to predict what's going to happen next.On overall it's an OK movie and it's the first movie I have seen with Luke Goss. I really liked him, so I'm planning to watch a few more movies with him ;)
