Final Kill

Final Kill is a low budget action film that tells the story of Mickey Rome (portrayed by Ed Morrone) who is a mercenary hired by Camila (portrayed by Anita Leeman Torres) and Ray (portrayed by Edward Finlay) to protect them in Costa Rica after they go into hiding for stealing money from the mob. Mickey has a perfect record on protecting his clients and plans to do one more job before he officially retires.

Surprisingly, my favorite part of this film was not the action but rather the comedy. I thought Mickey's character added a lot of humor to the film.

However, where the film lacked was in the story and action. The story never really delves into who the mob is, who is the company that Mickey works for, what is the outcome for Camila and Ray. Rather, the film ends on a cliffhanger surrounding Mickey without really answering any questions. In addition, the action in the film is pretty bad. I appreciated that Mickey was not superhuman and showed normal injuries. However, there are a couple scenes where he definitely should've been done and somehow was able to take the enemy down.

Another minor issue I had was Danny Trejo was on a poster I saw for the film but only has a few minutes in the film.

For these reasons I would rate the film a 3/10. If you want to watch a B-movie action comedy it's not horrible but it's not a great film.

This film was probably made on a budget of around £1000. However, if you see past the cheapness of it, it's a watchable shoot em and punch the crap out of em kind of film. It passed a couple of hours on a Sunday afternoon....

If you're a smart person and you see the movie cover or poster, you're not even reading this. If you're a dumb person and a movie cover or poster showing one, two or even three guys pointing a gun and it makes you tink it's a good movie, you're not reading this because, simply put, you're not a reader. If you're in the middle of the pack and have enough common sense to know that you don't want to waste your time on garbage movies for garbage people, you MIGHT read this review. Go with your gut. Your gut said this movie is likely another slapped together mess with lots of loud music to mask the poor scene setting and occasional quips by tough guys - all stolen from movies like Die Hard... or Die Harder.. Or Die Hardest... Or Die Harder Most Deadly... Your gut is right: This movie isn't worth your time. It's not even worth your time reading this stupid review. It's time to stop churning out garbage like this. It's a waste of resources and the only way to stop this is by NOT giving it a chance to begin with. DO NOT SEE THIS MOVIE! Do not encourage producers to make this stuff. This is why theaters only show Star Wars, Comic Book Movies and Fast and Furious movies.

Note to self: Check to see who directed, produced and wrote a film before you see it, and if it's Justin Lee, just don't!

This is the 3rd or 4th Justin Lee mess I've seen, and it's slightly better than the previous, mainly for the silly comedic attempts he made in this one, not to mention casting some bad-ass actors, albeit for a few minutes at a time.

What Lee improved on from his previous messes, was hiring a good cinematographer that I'm sure did his best with Lee's terrible directing and screenplay. The score was actually bearable in this film. But having Ed Morrone spew out the stupidest dialogue, and act like he was on speed trying to crack jokes, was a huge fail. Either make this a drama/thriller, or a comedy. Had it been a comedy, casting Keegan-Michael Key instead of Monroe would've made this film a hit, because that's who I thought of when I heard every lame joke that would've been jokes if delivered by Key - plus they have a similar look. The writing was so predictable full of plot and technical issues. The girl kicks his ass more than anyone else, whilst trowing vases and pans back and forth? Really smh? And what personal protection service would send, let alone hire an obnoxious loud annoying moron like Morrone's character?

Not sure if Lee's has rich parents that don't mind throwing away money on his flop films, but maybe he should take some of that and go to a professional film school. A generous 3/10 for the cinematography and bloopers in the end

A security firm appoints an old and erratic bodyguard to protect a couple who takes billions dollars with accounting fraud. Everything going right till a breach in firms' another appointment which turns in wrong turn. Story is simple but good acting by Rome is bind you till end. Not so good nor so bad only once time watchable for a different kind of bodyguard's assignment.
