This is How Movies Should Be Made

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

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

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

Plot is simple: shoot em all. In a forest. You are going to watch an airsoft game, where nobody can properly shoot rifle from ten meters but is a perfect sniper from long distance with a handgun. You will watch a hysterical biatch that is claiming having high IQ but acts like a complete idiot at everything she is doing.Wearing armor vests without armor inside is just lame. At least insert some wooden plates for let the vest stops repeating fatty actors bodies.Oh, and the bad guys always want to shoot good guys both dead, but as long as bad guys ambush and meet them from behind - asking to drop the gun (of course fist fight begins, of course bad guys losing).The movie is so predictable and foreseeable that you won't expect that absolutely blunt and abrupt ending of the movie.Oh, you just watched the whole movie in my review.

I can't believe it's been almost ten years since the first 'The Marine' movie. Back in 2006, WWE thought it would be great to make a film with one of their biggest wrestling superstars John Cena. They put him in the lead role of a movie called 'The Marine', which he indeed played the Marine. The even got Robert Patrick and Kelly Clarkson to star in the film. That was nine years ago. The sequel starred WWE superstar Ted Dibase, and the third film starred former Real World star and current WWE superstar Mike 'The Miz' Mizanin.Since The Miz did such a good job on Part 3, they brought him back for the fourth film in the WWE franchise, which has seen some moderate home video success. Make no mistake about it though, 'The Marine 4' isn't going to change the action genre in any way, shape, or form, but there is enough quality talent here to make the film look bigger and greater than it actually is. It's a simple and very run-of-the-mill action movie where it consists of only gun fights, hide and seek, and more gun fights. That being said, the fight choreography with fists and feet, as well as the mass amounts of gun play looks insanely good. So if you're a fan of mindless action with great gun fights, you'll be satisfied with this fourth installment from the WWE universe.The Miz comes back as former Marine Jake Carter who is tasked to look after and escort a young woman named Olivia Tanis (Melissa Roxburgh), who is the whistleblower for a major company that was responsible for some shoddy military uniforms. Olivia arrives back in the USA in order to testify against the company, but as soon as she steps foot on the soil and is enlisted in the care of The Miz, a ton of bad guys attack them with what seems like all the guns in the world. It seems like there is never a shortage of bad guys or guns here, as The Miz and Olivia have to escape each obstacle in their path.The film never slows down, which is unfortunate for our pair of protagonists here, because it seems like they are always in peril with dodging bullets, fists, or knives. But hey, that's a good thing for us, because it keeps us interested in seeing the next fun death sequence or the next cheesy line of dialogue, which is all through this fourth installment. In fact, one of my favorite lines in a movie this year is from 'The Marine 4', which happens at the start of the film and goes from taking the SAT's to 9-11 in only a matter of seconds. It's damn near perfect.You don't need to pay attention to any of the sub plots or story really, because in fact, there really isn't any. Just pay attention to how well the fight scenes and gun play is staged here. The bloody squibs go off nicely, and each punch and kick packs a forceful hit. It was good to see WWE Diva Summer Rae is in the film too as a sniper, but for some reason, they left most of her scenes on the cutting room floor and is barely in the film. The Miz and Tanis deliver solid performances. The Miz is easily likable and believable as the badass he portrays in this movie, whereas Tanis does a good job of of mixing her harmless and strong side into one cohesive character.'The Marine 4: Moving Target' is a surprisingly well made film where action scenes are concerned. I can't say the same about the dialogue, but hey, what do you expect from a fourth installment of a WWE franchise?

Audiences not hoping like this movie for another sequel.Mike 'The Miz' Mizanin better than other WWE actors.He was a hero but not look like a "First Blood".This is his 2nd but acting decent & well.He has good future.Josh Blacker acting is boring.This movie better than 1st Marine movie.last movie have not enough happy ending.But this is good come back.Story & Dialog are impressive.Music,special effects,location,acting are most happy done.fights are choreographed with perfect.But reloading forget.car chasing are look like childish.Finally enough for video film.We waiting for another sequel from William Kaufman.

Audiences should be aware that The Marine 4 is the epitome of B-movie, it has a simple premise and is designed to entertain with least amount of effort. To its credit, the movie does serve that purpose. It offers lots of shooting spree as well as decently choreography melee combat, even though some of its logic are admittedly flawed and the protagonists wear magical plot armors.Jake Carter (Mike Mizanin or The Miz) is starting a new job as a security guard for high value target, a whistle-blower by the name of Olivia Tanis (Melissa Roxburgh). Soon he realizes that the implication Olivia could do is far reaching, and he must do his best to keep her safe. Acting from The Miz is surprisingly good. He's a pretty suitable lead, creating the disheartened veteran persona well. This is better than most exaggerated roles of action genre, although he does look a bit confused at times.Matthew MacCaull as the antagonist is above the rest. He presents a conniving personality that presentably irritating. Melissa Roxburgh as the female lead however, is distinctly bad. Her character is supposed to be a brash woman with brave attitude, but it turns out to be an annoying and highly unsympathetic bickering damsel. The rest of cast is your typical mercenaries. Summer Rae makes an appearance as well, while she has so few lines, she does look the part of fit femme fatale.Plot and action are severely unrealistic. People are shooting for half of the movie, it's not even a hyperbole. Scenes are basically Jake and random mercs spraying bullets at each other, without the need of reloading and unsurprisingly Jake has far better accuracy. The fisticuffs are marginally better as the fights are choreographed with good impact.The Marine 4 is, as expected, ninety minutes of mindless shooting and punching, nothing more. It's not Bourne, but it will do for mindless fun.
