Cross 3 - Pericolo a Los Angeles

I watched the movie after seeing the trailer, unsure if the movie was real. What a joke. This is the worst movie I've seen in a very long time. This Hollywood-ized version of a comic book is just a soulless money-grab.

From a filmmaking perspective, its awful. The writing, directing, stunts, special effects, and the acting are all TERRIBLE! Every action scene seems to drag on forever and are VERY boring. Completely humorless, dialogue uninteresting, and distracting plot holes.

I'm only giving this movie a 1 star because I can't give it ZERO STARS... Please save yourself the trouble by not wasting money on this movie and if you can watch it for free, just stab your eyes with a fork. Sony and the film makers should be embarrassed to have their name attached to this groan-inducing train wreck of a movie.

While this is very much like a comic book, it's not very good.

The acting is lifeless. The deliveery of characters are very flat and monotone.

Editing is very choppy and whomever is handling the cameras has never heard of stabilizers or tripods or stands or even flat surfaces to sit a camera and make it function. Camera work is as if it was filmed while on a roller coaster ride. Shaking and a mess of all over.

Characters do little and the plot is almost non-existant.

Action sequences are lame. By now, the cast should know how to deliver lines and action...as most of the actors have been in enough shows to do it right.

It has so much potential - considering that this is the 3rd in a 4 part series, but falls so short.

Far too many characters to count, characters that stand around and are next to useless and with what little story there is, are just wasted like in the last 2 films.

I don't see much other change for the upcoming 4th movie - because the first 2 were of the same quality and they had more than 5 years to work on improving their production.

Much of the same crew and cast are on these film, and if the read the reviews here, they should realize what the problems are and how to fix it.

They all worked with enough fil people to solve the problems, it just seems like they don't care to.

Unless you are a fan of a particular actor or somebody in the cast of these films - they aren;t that enticing to watch and with the amount of other movies being made and put out for distribution on a weekly basis, this is easily passed and most likely gonna be turned off shortly after it's turned on.

Lots of potential from the first film to this one is just wasted on the same problems that I wrote - and others wrote.

Maybe somebody will finally utilize the complaints and fix the problems before they make their next film or disaster.

I can assure you I am a very generous rater of movies. I start at neutral 5/10 and go from there. Most get a +1 at least (6/10). Those that go negative (4 or below) are VERY rare. This movie goes bad very fast and very furious. It is one thing to witness people who cannot act. This is something else entirely, as if these people are channeling all of what non-existent acting they have into actively being bad. That is, they're putting actively effort in to be this awful.

I won't waste any more time with this, but steer far and clear away from this. Vinnie Jones and Eric Roberts are likely the only two coming out of this with anything resembling something of an effort, so I guess 2/10 for them alone (all 2 minutes of their time)

Well, I never knew that there was a school where you learn how not to act, this film is full of those actors that graduated from said school. Kudos to Patrick Durham for giving it a crack, that is where they stop. Personally, I think that he needs to go back and learn what it means to direct. Maybe Durham should have watched a few episodes of Charmed to help. I do not like to be too negative, but when people put their faith in the writer and director of a movie, I am sure they want something to work with and have a director that does not encourage wooden performances. You get two stars, 1 for the background workers and the other for giving it a crack.

I tried to watch but my life is to short to spend time on garbage.
