Ignition

I expected a B grade movie - but this was MUCH better than B grade.

Well directed, produced and acted and INTELLIGENT (a rare commodity these days).

It's not the best movie I've ever seen, but it's a better quality movie than most of the so-called "block-busters" I've seen recently...

I just got a copy of Ignition and watched it without any disappointment, except for Nicholas Lea whom didn't get a huge role in the film other than playing the part a ex-husband. It definately had its heartwarming moments with scenes of a relation ship between father and daughter. I recommend this film to anyone who likes a little bit of everything in a movie. There wasn't too much violence, but the film was pretty realistic.

Truly said when I rent this movie I expected a true disaster. I don't even know why I rented it. But I must say I was quite impressed with it. It had a bit of humor and it was also a good thrill. There are a lot of better movies but this one is also worth of watching. Rent it cause it's pretty damn good.

When all's said and done, the suspense build-up and chase has been done a thousand times over but it seems to work in this movie until the last twenty minutes when I have two gripes. First, the special effects ain't all that special - that's a real let down for a film that has some well shot action scenes prior and decent suspense. Second, the most implausible action finale (which I won't relate so i don't spoil it for anyone). Surely something more probable could have been thought of? Not to mention the contradictory threat which couldn't have occurred. For what began as a decent film, it was a real shame to be let down so badly at the end.

We have a rare opportunity to see our hero in this early starring role as good guy bodyguard Gallagher assigned to protect a reluctant lady judge. Our independent lady judge (Olin) underestimates her need for protection. A potential witness in a military investigation alerts the judge to his own concerns for his safety as the intended target of a military cover-up of fraudulent activity. Other potential witnesses have disappeared under mysterious circumstances. Gallagher and Judge investigate disappearances, creating more peril for themselves when military bad guys begin to target them. Their collaboration leads to a more personal relationship between divorced Gallagher and single judge.'But they have to thwart a military-planned presidential assassination as a part of the fraud cover-up ahead of acting on any personal feelings. Gallagher has a cute daughter that he introduces to the judge after all the action. I enjoyed this movie because it is well-balanced with good guys, bad guys, personal relationships, action and significant problems to solve. Our heroes prevail because they figure out how to work together and trust each other. There are some unexplained and incredulous escapes that can happen only in movies. But the rest of the plot lines seemed plausible to me. Pullman fans will see foreshadowing of the well-intentioned but flawed Detective Ambrose character now developed in The Sinner TV series.
