Clear Cut

This Movie is good I don't know why the other reviewer is going so hard in on Alec Baldwin he is an excellent Actor that has stollen the movie in many a scenes to say that he cannot do this role is idiotic. I can only guess the other reviewers hate for Baldwin has some politics involved in it making his review not relevant and dumb. As I said it is a good movie quite entertaining and all cast do a good Job I am starting to like these smaller movies they seem more authentic that the "big" movies we get today which seem to be mostly CGI and hot muscle men that can't quite act as good as the actirs from previous generations such as deniro Pacino, Defoe Baldwin. Etc.

Stephen Dorff really?? After such a fantastic performance in True Detective he is continuing to pick such a lousy projects like this. Is he a good friend with Brian Skiba or what? That guy is a fraud, his every movie stinks. He is just a guy with zero talent. Is Stephen Dorff blacklisted or what? Why is he continuosly doing this C grade trash is beyond me. He"s a great actor. I can understand what happened to Alec Baldwin who is obviously blacklisted in Hollywood.. What a waste of talents and careers. Such a shame to see these good actors in this pile of crap. Some directors like Brian Skiba should just change profession, this is embarrasing stuff.

Why watch a bimbo in a $10 horror movie make terrible decisions when we've got THIS movie? I've never seen so many stupid decisions made by a lead character in my entire lifetime of watching movies. There are no well drawn characters, there's no real tension here at all, not even a good use of the pacific northwest locale. The special effects, especially the fire effects, are an insult to the intelligence. Alec Baldwin is barely in this for three minutes and his exit is as lamely shot as possible. But no other character is is important as the Clive Standen character is, and we never know what the hell he's up to. Nothing he does make any sense. I'd rather watch lost puppies go through the same story because at least there will be some action on the screen that makes some natural sense.

But you won't find any sense in this movie.

Alec Baldwin is masterful as a logger who receives an arrow through the neck ten minutes into this D-grade robbery thriller in the woods since he needed to make at least five other direct-to-DVD films to cover his rent and family expenses since accidentally shooting that chick on his Western and deep-sixing his career. Other neglected master thespians in the cast include that guy who played the security guard who gets electrocuted in Freddy Vs. Jason and Tom Welling. This film should be more viewed alongside other naturalist masterpieces like Terrence Malick's The New World and not between Anaconda films on the Scy Fy network at three in the morning. Thank you, Clear Cut. American cinema is rescued once again.

Clear Cut is a complete waste of talent. The veteran actors deserved better, and it's baffling why they took on such minor roles-perhaps due to personal connections with the writers or producers. Alec's presence is barely felt with just a few minutes of screen time, which feels like a missed opportunity. Stephen delivers a solid performance, but it's overshadowed by the overall mediocrity of the film. Jesse, on the other hand, lacks the skill to carry his role, making him one of the weakest links among the more recognizable actors. Overall, the film fails to capitalize on its cast and ends up feeling like a frustrating waste of potential.
