Hard Night Falling

The acting, the fight scenes and the writing is terrible with that said could this movie have been a hit yes. You would need to get a couple different actors i am sorry but Dolphs fight scenes are awful and slow he can barely move it appears. The story line needs a lot of tweeks first no trained agent who takes a pistol off someone and has fired almost the whole clip leaves rifles and ammo on guys he shot. He would take the weapons and ammo check for ID and also take the radio so he could hear what they were saying. In one scene he rescues a guy there are two rifles and pistols plus who know what else on the guys he had taken down literally at the feet of the guy he rescued. Did they each pick up a weapon ? No did they take a radio ? a Knife, anything at all from these guys ? No i don't know about you but even someone who is not trained with the agency, the military or the police when in danger from armed men are going to grab any weapon they can find. This is lazy writing. I have a half hour left i will not give away any spoilers i will give my whole review when i have seen the rest. Right now 2 stars is fair but depending on the ending that could change. I still believe this could have been a movie worth watching with better writing and casting Dolph could have been it but not as the star action hero those days are gone i am afraid. Watch his fight scenes and tell me i am wrong. Of course the worse action hero of all time is Steven Segal with his one move and fat gut at east Dolph look like he is in good shape and i don't know maybe with a double or better training he could pull of this role all i can do is judge it on what i see.

Let's start with the whole Interpol thing!!! Interpol is one of the oldest, largest and most famous law enforcement agencies in the world. ... The only problem is most of what people think Interpol does is fiction. Its agents aren't allowed to make arrests, don't carry guns, and rarely leave the office.

That's just the start. It gets so much worse! The acting... WTF, when was it okay to not give a dam about a project you are working on!

It's not like the writers and directors are newbs to allow such plot-hole ridden convoluted and choppy screenplay go to production. Camera work was ok, but Giorgio Bruno failed to direct his cast. Then the lousy editing didn't help either. The score was also atrocious. Cinematography, production values and casting was decent. Good to see Natalie Burn and her usual hotness from her last film Acceleration where she looked like Criss Angel lol. Nevertheless, I've seen much worse B films, and Lundgren was good in this one and some decent action scenes. Acceleration was better imo, but I still saw this one to the end and never fell asleep, so it's a generous 5/10 from me.

Yikes, another dud for Dolph. This plot has been done to death, by every wannabe action star and it still sucks. The plot is overdone, the dialogue is boring and the acting marginal. He was a terrible actor in his prime and it seems that he hasn't improved - so really practice does not at all make perfect.

We watched this not expecting cinematography brilliance, but simple non-cerebral entertainment. But it was so bad. It looked as if Dolph either has severe body damage and constant pain, restricting his movement, or he just didn't give a damn about a modicum of realism. When sneaking up on the bad guys he makes no effort to achieve stealth; he just walks around! He doesn't hide but still doesn't get hit by lots of automated weapons fire then offloads a couple of pistol rounds and the bad guys fall around dying. There is no blood when bad guys are stabbed and bodies dragged away. It is just as if no one cared about any pretense of realism. We laughed most of the way through this movie. But, hey, I guess that counts as some form of entertainment.
