Very Bad Team

Again I'm astonished by low ratings assigned to a movie here on imdb. More and more, I'm seeking out movies that are not 'blockbusters' or 'important' or 'hard-hitting action', 'cause those movies are fine for what they are, but don't offer much more. I am so often weary of the weight, the baggage that such movies carry. That baggage is tiring and tiresome, and so often can't be made up for with 'style' (which not many of them have, in any case). I'm feeling that people who rate good films so badly can only be satisfied by movies of that type. On to the film. It's fun, it's entertaining, it's silly and light-hearted. It's kinda like a fun heist movie, it moves along smoothly and quickly. The cast is experienced, all good actors. The locale is interesting, and different. It's a fun watch. Ignore the bad reviews. Unless you *want* to watch a blockbuster, or an important movie, or hard-hitting action, dragged down by the weight of all the apparently necessary self-important morality, cookie-cutter characterizations and paint-by-numbers plotting. But don't listen to me - I'm the only woman on the planet who hated Titanic ;>

B movie story with B movie acting, B movie special effects and B movie production values. You should not expect anything of quality. I've seen many worse films and this has nothing to recommend it other than I made it to the end which beats some of the aforementioned worse films. James Caan stands out not for anything he did but simply for being in such a low rent effort. I can only assume he needs the money. He came down to the level of the rest of the film and blended in with the rest. Only watch it if you really can't find anything better.

A mildly entertaining action flick, no more no less. Rather bloodless in the action scenes and many of the jokes have been done before in better films...

Looks like a pilot for a network US TV show, only a couple of f-words would put it apart from any show on CBS or whatever. To be honest, I only bothered with it thanks to the gorgeous Katie Mcgrath being in it (I'm a big fan of Merlin... damn, why can't anyone put this lovely and talented actress in a BIG film, and no, JURASSIC WORLD doesn't count because she was in it for about five minutes... ;o))

It's an OK watch if you're feeling a bit undemanding...

Even Throwaways can be recycled. Not to be mentioned can be used anyway. One mans trash is another mans ... You probably heard that before. And you've very likely have seen this or something like this before. The actors do their best (of their abilities) to make this as fun and tension filled as possible.

But there is no doubt, that almost every twist and turn is predictable. Having said that, the relationships between the characters are really neat and the action is decent for a low budget movie too. Love interest and beauties aside, this has an "old school" feel to it, that will either enhance your viewing pleasure or annoy you

Predictable and cliched, with an ample serving of jingoism. If you are into this sort of stuff it's right up your street, if not you might find it laughably similar to a thousand other films.
