Kill Kane

I don't understand the numerous, scathing one star reviews here, as quite frankly, this low budget British made movie, shot in a mere 9 days, largely in the Swansea area, is at least worth a watch. OK, it's formulaic and predictable, and some of the acting could have been better, but one star? Really? The musical soundtrack is also OK. Yes, there are most definitely better Vinnie Jones films out there, but he does seem to be typecast not on;y as the cockney hard man, but also often as the avenging, dark force, seeking retribution for crimes against family and friends. So no surprises, as it's a bit more of the same, just in a rather lower key to some of his former "hits". So an averagely watchable verdict from me. I give it 5 out of 10.

This is total bilge of the highest order! Absolutely terrible...beyond any redemption! Horrendously-bad actors and actresses...and script, (insult to the word "script', tbh)! If this was a school production, during my secondary school days, it would have been laughed off the stage! 5 year olds would not have acted so badly! I have always liked Vinnie, but I sense his pay for this was a vast majority of the £75K budget for the whole production! He deserves it, as money for service to an excuse for a movie, 9 days or 9 months to make this, but 9 years could not save this poor excuse for a movie!

Review: This is another one of those cheap, "straight to DVD" movies from Vinnie Jones, which will be quickly forgotten. He plays a happily married, family man who witnesses a murder, which is committed by a bunch of gangsters, in the middle of nowhere. The gangsters then set out to make sure there wasn't any witnesses to the crime, and they brutally murder Ray Brookes (Vinnie Jones), family, right in front of him. The leader of the gang, Kane Keegan (Sean Cronin), thinks that he has killed Ray but he manages to survive, and he sets out to get revenge. That is the basic gist of the storyline! Vinnie Jones is playing his usual "tough nut" type of role, with a cockney accent, and the rest of the cast, put in pretty poor performances. I can totally understand why Vinnie Jones went on a killing spree but what shocked me was that the gangsters that he was killing, didn't seem to care that he survived and had a gun pointed to there heads. Anyway, I personally didn't think that it was that great and it just goes down as another badly made movie, by Vinnie Jones. Maybe he should go back to playing football! Disappointing!

Round-Up: It's obvious that Vinnie Jones, 51, only stars in these terrible movies to pay bills, because he honestly can't think that these low budget movies are going to do his career any good. His first taste of stardom in big movies like X-Men: The Last Stand, Swordfish, Snatch, Lock Stock, Gone in 60 Seconds etc, really does seem long ago now, and his acting skills haven't really progressed since he became an household name, after his great performance in Lock Stock in 1998. Anyway, it might do him some good if he changes his agent because these movies are going from bad to worse. This is the first major release from Adam Stephen Kelly, who also wrote this movie, which doesn't say a lot about his script writing skills. For his first major project, it's passable but the sketchy script really wasn't that great.

I recommend this movie to people who are into their crime/thrillers starring Vinnie Jones, Nicole Faraday, Sebastian Street, Sean Cronin and Dan Richardson. 2/10

I actually like Vinnie. He has done a couple of really good acting jobs. His Brit flicks and I enjoyed him in Midnight Meat Train. Fair enough he never spoke but he was good. He is not as bad as people make out but sadly just gets trash like this nowadays to show what he can do.

A film so bad nobody could even be bothered to write a fake review.

I seem to recall this was done once before and rather well at that. Sadly Vinnie is no Bronson and sadly this has no script either.

Daft as I may sound I think Vinnie could do well if given a decent role in a film that had a decent story and some decent actors in it.

He will never trouble Broadway but deserves better than the garbage he is given.

One day he might well surprise everybody. Sadly this is not his breakthrough role.

So bad we may have to invent a whole new language to articulate our thoughts about such rubbish.

This is a seriously bad film... I really don'y know where to begin whether its the entire premise, the gaping holes in the story, the script, the acting, the effects... well, the everything.

I don't often review but after losing my investment of some 74 minutes in this woeful film I felt the need to warn others.

But first let let me lay down my credentials... I don't act, direct, produce or have any other pre-release involvement in the film industry but I do watch, and this.... is simply not worth watching.

I normally enjoy Vinnie Jones in his stereotypical role of ultra violent vigilante or similar and it was his name that attracted me to the film... but this was hard to stomach. The acting was awful from start to finish and the story wafer thin and generic.

Anyone who gives this more than a 2 has a financial interest in the film.

There are better things to do with your 74 minutes.
