Deadlock

Deadlock is an action thriller about mercenaries that seize an energy plant and hold everyone hostage. Ron Whitlock (Bruce Willis) is a wanted criminal leading a team of mercenaries on a mission of vengeance. Bruce Willis keeps the legacy of producing bad films. 'Deadlock' is nothing more than a cliche all the way. The storyline is predictable, the cast falters and there are no prizes for predicting an end that is distinctly clear right from the start. Bruce Willis in this age plays a baddie when he can hardly get off the toilet. The cast plays their bit-part roles, but it isn't enough to lend any depth to the film. I would recommend catching up on some other decent flick instead of this damp squib.

He is putting out B or even C rated movies at a blistering pace. His name is now trashed.

Anytime I see his name now I think of Steven Segal, an actor many thought was good at action movies until he was exposed in behind the scenes footage.

Nothing to see in this film, it was my last attempt to watch a movie with him in it, and I didn't last all that long.

I've committed to watch every low budget film that Bruno makes. Muldoon was terrible in this film, and I like the man as an actor. The project lacked the usual co-stars like Lydia Hall, Chad Michael Murray, etc that Bruno usually works with.

Felt like this was shot in about 15-20 days.

Great gig if you can get it. Show up on B movie set for a day or two. Utter a few lines, sit on the toilet a while and get a large paycheck.

Willis is obviously on a long money train, doing everything and anything no matter how degrading, no matter how humiliating, no matter how disgracefully bad to get paid.

Bruce Willis is lending his name to many B movies these days. Does he need the money ? Why, Bruce, why ?

This movie is badly acted, the script is weak, the actors have very little talent and the shaky camera is not helping. I gave it a 4 star for effort but that is generous.
