Blood Out

What do you do when the law doesn't help? After his brother is brutally murdered Sheriff Spencer (Luke Goss) is let down by the people he hoped would help. Taking matters into his own hands he goes undercover in the gang that did it in order to get revenge. Looking at the cover it seems like another 50-cent/Val Kilmer movie, which makes you think twice about getting it. Vinnie Jones, Fiddy and Kilmer have a total screen time of about 2 minutes. Luke Goss is the main star of the movie. I was not expecting a lot being that I thought it as a 50 cent/Kilmer movie, although "Gun" was not as bad as I expected so I had a little more expectations for this one. This was a movie that started off flat and never improved. The acting wasn't as bad as I expected though. It was not terrible, but had all the drama and excitement of watching a dog play fetch, fun for a while then just sitting waiting for it to end. This is a movie that a lot of people will like, I just can't get into this kind of thing. I give it a C-.

Would I watch again? - No I wouldn't

Contrary to other reviewers I have always liked Luke Goss and he is a solid actor but only in certain roles and the hard man is not one of them.

As soon as I see Vinnie Jones in ANY movie I kinda know what I am going to get and as soon as he popped his ugly mug up my heart sank and I was right this movie is a real stinker and no mistake.

Every single actor but Goss and Ed Quinn cannot act their way out of a paper bag including Tamer and even Kilmer puts in some god awful performance with a soliloquy that has to be seen to be disbelieved - what was he thinking?From the glory days how low has Val Kilmer fallen to be second billing in this pile of cinematic ordure.

Bored me to tears and the end fight sequence has to be seen to be believed, utterly ridiculous; some sort of Mad Max Beyond Thunderboredome it was and no mistake - I just wasted an hour and a half of my life I will never get back and I am mad - Don't you be too!

This is a cheap looking DTV Movie, is that redundant? Not always, but here it is nonetheless, and it reeks of bottom barrel badness. Rapper 50 Cent Produced this thing and he manages to mangle the English Language, swallow His words, and mumble for the complete 30 seconds he is on the Screen. Then has the audacity to put His Name on the Box. Ditto pretty much Val Kilmer, and Vinnie Jones although they don't Mumble they just barely show up.

The Colors are washed out and the lighting is awful, the Camera shakes as this announces Action and Excitement. There are many obligatory parades of Babes in varying poses as eye-candy and Gangsta Ho hangers on. The Plot tries to have some Pathos with a Murdered Brother, a White-knight Cop, and a Pregnant Street Gal who must give up "the Life" for her Baby.

Nothing here is worth much and it barely reaches the Competency Level and when it does it drops to below standard quickly. Nothing here worth your time unless you must see every Gang-Related Retread made available for a seemingly insatiable Home Video Market.

In my 74 years I have never seen anything any worst than the movie "Blood Out." In fact my recommendation is that the writers fingers be put in a cast for the remainder of his/her natural life; Jason Hewitt should be barred from any set; and the producers should have their bank accounts seized in order to stop further films from being made. As for the actors (oxymoron) they too should be banned from making any more films. Even Val Kilmer - the only name in the flipping movie - was disgusting, both in appearance and line delivery.

If you can get money for this movie then anything is possible. "Only in America," as they say.

My mum always said if put rubbish in that is what you get out! So we can start with the camera work, think student film and obscure lighting techniques then we move to the 'over-acting' and then the 'under-acting' in some parts.

The Story line, very predictable, false advertising with regards to the single appearance of 50 Cent opposed to 'starring', add to that the improbable events that take place in a police station??? It plods along as expected, relatively good soundtrack, token chicks, gratuitous nakedness and the stilletoed heroine.

But the best of all is the last minute special effects ….. I shan't spoil it but if you don't replay it at least 3 times to double check what you just saw I'll be surprised, in fact I'll be flabbergasted, it's incredulous! Ifyou are a teenager, who enjoys action flicks for the sake of action flicks and have no concern for quality, this is your cup of tea!
