Kill Shot

I always wondered why it took two years to release this movie after they wrapped up production, and now I know why. They needed some time to help them forget how bad of a movie they made. The basics of filmmaking were ignored in making this movie. It would have been much better to market this film as comical action or campy, but when they feel they made a serious film, it's just delusional and sad. I would be embarrassed to put this out there.

Aside from the opening scene, the writing, acting, and actions sequences are all horrible and laughable. The editing and framing of these scenes are very awkward as well. The director tries to distract the viewer by having Rachel run around in underwear or a bra. She looks like a puppet and has limited acting range. Rib looks like a soap opera star looking to extend his career. His dream sequence with Rachel is cringy and sophomoric at best.

The action sequences are silly and sloppy, and the villains are laughably incompetent and allow themselves to be killed as if they never had any fighting or combat experience. I like how Rib was able to take out a sniper by spinning around with a handgun, ha ha. Rachel character was so dumb she couldn't undo the ratcheting strap holding her down when her wrists were held together with zip ties but her fingers and arms were free!

It's clear they casted Rachel to draw her social media followers to watch this movie. It will probably be the only people who watch this film. What I can't understand is why Rachel would sign on to more films with this silly production company.

Went to my mates house and he just started the movie... Anyway, I thought it was a comedy at first, like you know those purposefully bad movies with cheesy lines and bad acting.

But it fast became reality this was a serious movie, well to them anyway. The acting was horrific, the writing was even worse and the filmography looked like something you'd do in a film production class at high school.

It was seriously like they got a group of instagram influences together, we no acting experience and shot this over a weekend. It's a really rough watch, and it cost 6 bucks or something.. Crazy hahah.

I wanted to like this movie so bad dammit. You can tell the quality of the film right away. Its so stiff. It's not filmed like the really good movies are. Acting is horrible. Fight scenes are not believable. Rachael Cook that plays Kate must have got the job by her looks because she's a terrible actress. She is constantly positioned certain ways throughout the movie to look sexy and she holds the pose like she's in a photography shoot. The guy Rip isn't as bad as an actor but could definitely use some lessons. Was this movie supposed to be this bad and I missed this? I feel like I lost 93 min of valuable time. Thumbs down. 👎

Seemed like they tried to use a formula of action, guns, good looking people and picturesque setting to make this picture. Unfortunately a bad script, poor editing and direction, sloppy action, and weak acting are what made this movie bad iin a laughable, unintentional way. The two leads actors are vacuous and they have zero chemistry. At one point you think there is some sexual tension and then Jackson beomes aloof and brooding about his past, while Kate is just doe eyed and runs around in her underwear half the movie.

The action scenes have people shooting in random directions, the 'pro' mercenaries can't hit anything while Jackson can take out snipers from a distance with a pistol. Hand to hand fighting was unconvincing especially with Kate fighting off Maximus... The twist at the end made no sense either when looking back at how the story played out. I would be embarrassed to have been involved in this production.

I don't know where the bad reviews are coming from. This is a decent movie, very good actually when you compare it to the mess Netflix, Prime, Apple+, HBO, Paramount, and the alphabet networks come up with. Very entertaining. Maybe because it had only a handful of curse words people couldn't handle it. I hope a Kill Shot: Revenge is made. The main actor performs well in his role, the beautiful waif's part could have been more fleshed out but it would probably have given the story away. His character is understandable considering the loss of his child, secretive, closed, untrusting, but guided by an inner strength of loyalty.
