The Takedown

Chill movie with a bit of violence and humor seasoned with clichés. For sure there no surprises, the movie rolls smoothly even the pace is rather good.

The competition between the two main characters somehow funny but eventually gets annoying. The end was mostly disappointing, the story should have gone all the way through or not at all because it was very lame.

Netflix has a tendency at not ending well its creations.

This would have been enjoyable for small children if not for explicit content. Now it's not enjoyable for anyone. This is painfully bad and it almost physically hurt me to watch this movie until the end.

Most cliché movie I've seen in forever, it's so predictable it hurts. Such a shame since the cast is actually quite capable and the plot isn't half bad.

Or is it funny cops? Well I guess there is a mixture, because while this is ridiculous in one sense, it has quite a few intense action scenes on the other hand. Not to mention quite the explicit violence and at least one really awful looking death (and I don't mean the CGI).

That all being said, the movie is predictable and if you don't get down with the comedy and the humor - you might have an issue watching this. The "fine" line between humor and action, may not be for everyone. The movie is decent - but you'll get the vibe it has from the first scene. When the police is unable to figure out which door to use ... you'll either think this is funny or you better switch the movie off.

If you remove a couple of nude scenes this would be a funny cop movie for Nickelodeon. The comedy is forced, the action is edited so much that you not sure what is happening(there was 23 edits in 10 seconds). When it is not over-edited, the comedy scenes are drawn out to make sure you chuckle. On top of that, it plays most of the cliches' to overcome the non-existant writing. If you like simple, not serious, dumb movie to pass the time, then this is for you. If you are a thinker...skip.
