Vendetta

This is basically just a rip off of James Wan's death sentence. Death sentence is wayyyy better, if you haven't seen it skip this and just watch death sentence.

But for Jared Cohn, an experienced writer and director to give us this nonsense, is inexcusable. The writing was worse than a 5th grade drama class would present. This was such a plot-hole riddled lazily written bag full of cliches, it was cringe. Then he had his actors pretty much acting like clowns, I couldn't take Mr. Smiley and Pipe Smoker seriously. It's a shame, because this had potential and could've easily worked in the hands of any other capable filmmaker, especially considering the decent casting. It's a generous 4/10 from me.

Well with the Bruce Willis films winding down Im still seeing what work he has just done. This one is called Vendetta and it also stars Mike Tyson and Thomas Jane.

And the thing is...its not that bad really. I mean its far from great but its the best film Bruce Willis has been in in years. I give it a 5/10. Most of his newest films I gave a 1 to 3 rating. Its a basic vigilante film much in the spirt of Death Wish. A young girl is murdered by a gang member and her father decides to kill him instead of testifying against him. That gets the whole gang angry and they go after him.

Bad story, bad acting, bad action.

William Duncan is out for revenge when a hoodlum's son killed his high school daughter as part of an initiation killing. With the law unable to give him justice, Duncan brings war to the hoodlum's family.

You know the movie is in trouble when then the best performance comes from Mike Tyson.

This is a rock bottom rehash of both Death Wish and The Punisher. Both Bruce Willis and Thomas Jane appeared in remakes of those two films.

Shame on those who deal with Willis's affairs that they send out an ill old man to make such rubbish.

A violent, driven revenge movie loosely derived from all the other revenge movies. Tired trope after copycat cliché, this is a stereotypical story with few redeeming features. Formulaic recipe, sprinkle a few known names, albeit past their sell-by-date, cook up a random murder and garnish with carnage.

This is so poor, with diabolical dialogue, a ponderous, predictable plot and epilepsy-inducing camera work. This is all overlaid with an annoyingly intrusive soundtrack.

Terrible movie, not worth the required time investment.
