Bounty Killer

Awesome movie. B-Rated Cult movie in it's finest. This is probably an unintentional stroke of genius. No matter what it is "Bounty Killer" has it. So much, in fact I had to write my first movie review. I did it based on the fact that I think everyone should try this movie out just once.

Everything was done to max effect, despite the apparent budget. Matthew Marsden did real good as the brooding "Drifter" & Christian Pitre as "Mary Death" stole the show with her spicy combination of ruthlessness & sexy. Supporting actor Barak Hardley did a good job as the comic relief gun caddy "Jack". Supporting roles by Gary Busey, Eve, and Beverly D'Angelo also were not a wasted.

All I can say from my personal experience, is that I came in looking for a time filler movie and found a very entertaining cult raunch movie in the same vein as Quentin Tarantino & Robert Rodriguez films. The only thing that separate this movie from the other ones is marketing & a bigger budget. If it'd had those things, it probably would've took Hollywood by storm. *(Hollywood Execs--hint, hint)* Wondering if you'd like it: If you like the movie poster, then chances are you're REALLY gonna like this film. It's exactly what you thought It was lol

Good mindless action flick.

Plot is pretty good (about how corporations end up running everything and produce an apocalypse), lots of action (if you don't like the sight of blood this film is not for you), fight scenes are well done, plot twists are predictable, but not too contrived within the confines of the film, and in the end, there's a little more to the plot than expected. All the actors are pretty good (esp lead male and female, along with the gun caddy). Only down note was that Gary Busey was in it. But even he couldn't ruin this film!

All in all, an enjoyable 90 minute action flick with a good story, actors, and action!

I must admit that I hadn't initially expected much from "Bounty Killers", so I was pleasantly surprised when I sat down to watch this movie.

This movie is sort of a strange hybrid mix of "Mad Max", "Bitchslap" spiced up with elements from the "Borderlands" games. And it actually worked out quite nicely. The end result is entertaining and fast paced, although the storyline is just so-so, but it is more than weighed up for by action and fighting.

The story is about the world being controlled and run by corporations, and a few men and women stand up against the mega corporations, literally fighting the corporate machine.

And that is basically it, the storyline is rather weak and thin, but you look past that as you become emerged in the violence and action of this movie.

The acting in the movie was alright, nothing spectacular or outstanding, but alright. So don't get your hopes up for any award winning performances here in "Bounty Killer". Much can be said for Matthew Marsden (playing Drifter), but he was actually doing a great job here. And he was well equaled by the performance of Christian Pitre (playing Mary Death). And as a bonus, then it was really cool to see Beverly D'Angelo (playing Lucille) in this movie, and although I am not really fond of Gary Busey (playing Van Sterling), then he was here, and I am sure someone out there will get a kick out of that.

The camera-work was nice, lots of interesting angles and shots, no pun intended. And there is a very dynamic and vibrant feel to the movie. "Bounty Killer" is indeed a testosterone-filled movie; one that will sink right in with the male audience.

First of all let me say that I was compelled to create an account after watching this movie despite the one overly negative review of this film. While not my favorite, I had an enjoyable time watching this film and feel it was one of the better action comedy's I have seen in a while. Nothing too thought provoking or deep here, just simple entertainment that succeeds by not trying to be more than it is.

Its post-apocalyptic, Its based on a graphic novel, the main character is called "Drifter," Barak Hardley declares PBR Tastes like boobies. Overall I have to side with San Francisco Chronicle reviewer G. Allen Johnson's assessment that everyone in the film looks to be having a good time.

If you can get over (or enjoy) the general campiness, excessive gore, and the fact that Gary Busey never says "Butthorn," it should be a good time for you too.

I gave a 7 because to me this movie was very funny and I really enjoyed the story behind it.

The acting was not too bad, at least most of it was believable and the unknown actors were great. Barak Hardley was really funny and brings a left-brains' side to the story.

The mix of personalities is really well made and inter-mingling is great. I am really surprised by this film, it has a lot of potential. Of course the old geezers from the Mel Gibson generation (should be in old houses by now!) will complain that it has a Mad Max feeling in the movie, OF COURSE, it is post-apocalyptic! What do you expect? Hollywood hoes with their bling-bling-raper-boyfriends? Nope, it is the right feel for the right situation.

To me the best part of this film is the story: bounty killers hunting the white collars bastards that (still as we speak) ruled this world. It is such a liberation of the mind to see evil people getting eliminated by the dozens, too bad there was not enough of them to my taste but still it was bliss!

Christian Pitre looks so hot in the Mary Death costume it's nice for the eyes :-) Matthew Marsden is quite good too in this flick, he is the cool guy that keeps things straight...well almost.

This is a movie to see if you like action, comedy and violence this is for you, it will totally entertain you. If you are on the soft side, avoid this movie, it is not for you at all, stick to the smurfs!
