Armed Response

I have to admit, something a different reviewer stated is quite right. This could easily be a Seagal movie. Now he can't act in stark contrast to Snipes, but everything else ... I can see that. Actually I'd prefer not to see that, but you get my point. I guess one of the main differences would be that the newer Seagal movie would have (female) nudity included, whatever that means to you.

Now the movie at hand does not make much sense, there's not backup plan and no real plan either I guess. I don't think this will stay with you, technically though I cannot fault it. Do the effects and some stunts elevate the viewing experience? Probably not, but you be the judge

We are in 2017, a movie with a plot from 2 decades ago is something that we should not see anymore.

Some actors are trying but the script is not helping. Do not lose time with this, just skip it.

A team of pro is re-joined to solve a situation, situation that it is very clear for the audience from the moment of entering in the building, you will be like "I know what it will happen, I know who did it". So it is no fun, no mystery, nothing new, nothing innovative.

A cheaply done knock-off of Resident Evil. I couldn't get into this version due to shoddy script writing and the underwhelming delivery by the paid actors in this movie.

And the nothingness ghost apparition required a suspension in reality that I couldn't muster.

And where were the tech people who would have been doing the day to day functions for this facility? Just a security team that seemed to live on-site not one personal vehicle inside or outside this prison turned top secret research facility. This movie had more holes than Swiss Cheese. Which is why I gave it a generous three star rating.

So this is not an action movie starring Wesley Snipes, this is a horror movie with Snipes in it. I went to see if cause the way Snipes was all over the movie poster (all by himself) I was hoping for a decent action film with hopefully one stylish Snipes fighting scenes. What I got instead was something I can see people having a hard time advertising.

Snipes leads a team of marines into a prison where a secret government interrogation tool is being held in order to find out why they lost contact with the first half of the team. As the movie progressed, I'm thinking it was going to be some hi-tech, who-done-it mystery as the crew used surveillance to find out what happen to the first team but as Wesley's team gets picked off one by one, I'm seeing it as a completely different demographic. Even though it's not scary, it still had all the elements,similar to how the action movie, Aliens is a horror movie about marines battling monsters, and how Predator is the same thing. This movie is no where near as good as Aliens or Predator, but it is a very good suspense drama about war. The area where the action takes place is a huge prison that looks like a video game. Plus gene Simmons of Kiss ( who now has a bald head) is in it.

Confused cause I did not get what I came for but it does not disappoint.

"Armed Response" started out alright, but it quickly lost its momentum and settled comfortably into something less than mediocre.

The movie was plagued by a fairly pointless story. Actually, once it was revealed what was going on, then the movie went into a stale mode and just trotted onwards without any ups or downs.

The characters in "Armed Response" were like cardboard cutouts, and you didn't really connect with them. With that being said, it should also be said that there was actually some fairly good acting from the cast.

"Armed Response" had a fairly adequate cast to perform in the movie, with Wesley Snipes, of course, being the big name to pull in the audience.

This was not an extraordinary movie experience in any sense. And I can't really recommend that you spend time, money or effort of the movie, unless you are a fan of anyone in the movie.
