Point Blank

Don't expect a masterpiece just a very enjoyably action movie with some good enough acting, a solid 7/10 for me.

This film tells the story of a male nurse who has to save his wife from dangerous criminals.

It has big name actors and is action packed. There are many fight scenes which should be thrilling. The soundtrack doesn't suit the film though. Editing is not as tight as it could have been, but it is an above average Netflix film.

I queued up POINT BLANK because I felt like a competently done, fun action movie that wasn't too challenging. Guess what? I got exactly what I expected!

As far as plots go, this one wasn't anything too special, except for the fact it was blessedly free of annoying plot holes. No twists, no blunders, no errors.

The cast is very good for this type of affair. Frank Grillo is charismatic as always, Anthony Mackie gets the job done, and Marcia Gay Harden is as deliciously unlikable as we've come to expect.

POINT BLANK was a good distraction. Escapism in the best sense of the word.

With a few tweaks this film could be massively improved, sure it's the predictable unlikely buddy action movie, but that's ok it's a formula that has worked many times.. the two big issues here are the soundtrack and the editing.. a re-edit and for the large part an entirely new soundtrack it's a 7.

Great Netflix movie to watch not sure why so many negative reviews really enjoyed this flick
