Escape from Death Block 13

I truly enjoyed this crazy Indie film adventure. It was action throughout, crazy fist fights and gun fights. It delivered what it was meant to deliver. If you're a fan of Indie action, this one is a fine example.

I had to see this movie since I've missed the rise of Robert Bronzi.

His look is uncanny to that of the late Charles Bronson. At some angles you would easily think it is him. Almost creepy.

However, about this movie.

Hardly original concept. Guy gets in trouble, framed, goes to jail, gets a promise of reduced sentence, gets into fights and everyday prison dilemmas.

As far as the story goes, it's not that bad, in spite not being an original idea (in any way), what's particularly bad with it, is the acting, or should I say lack of it.

I do appreciate the use of non-actors as they usually shows more realistic expressions, but unfortunately some over-act, smirks and just doesn't give that feeling that they know how to act. You notice this with the most of the inmates when they're in frame. Can't help to almost focus more on their so called acting rather than the movie itself.

Choreography is also really really bad. Clearly someone haven't seen enough fight scenes (while filming, from other angles etc) to make it believable and authentic looking. You can see blows a mile away, almost in slow motion in some scenes and clearly see them missing by inches.

We can only hope that some director sees this and it's potential (Not a bad story, really, just poor writing) and do a remake with Bronzi. Maybe even make it play out during the 80-90's so that it would fit better with Bronzi's fighting style, then hire someone who can write a proper plot, re-cast a few of the inmates, and above all, direct the actors so that they look the part.

I think they could do better with CGI which is really visible at times, and also leave out some of the gore or at least not have it in frame like they did. Instant lowering of the movie expectations!

I rated this 5, but that extra star was for Bronzi and that he's a near copy of Bronzon, 4 is for the story, which I would've given otherwise.

As far as directing and thereby controlling actors, I'd rate 3, possibly 2.

I've reviewed over 1,200 films and rated over 2,200, and this has to be in the top 10 worst films of all time. However, as far as the worst acting of all time, the legendary Charles Bronson look-a-like wannabe Robert Bronzi wins first place. There is not one casting agency that will use their name to say they represent Bronzi, so I'll assume he won the Hungarian lottery jackpot; this horrible nonsense was his 6th starring role, so clearly his winning jackpot was huge enough to fund all his cringeworthy films to make him feel like he's an "action movie star". I'm guessing he forgot to spend at least half his winnings for acting classes.

One would think this was a horrible film from the 1980's - CGI and laughable action scenes and special effects, but sadly this is a 2021 production. What's even worse, is that this was directed by an experienced director, Gary Jones. Was he medicated and/or drunk directing this garbage? I've never heard of Jones, but I'd be embarrassed to have my name on this film even as a first-time director, let alone an experienced one.

The 104 min runtime was excruciatingly painful to watch. Every cliche imaginable for this genre was present, but only in their worst versions possible. This entire production, including 99% of the acting, was worse than a 5th grade drama class play. The only (barely) entertaining actors were Nicholas Turturro, and Chris "Bunyan loves trees!" Hahn, who was hilarious, especially his laughing. Bronzi's action scenes looked like he was suffering arthritic pain and had no clue how to fight. All the S/VFX were the worst I've ever seen, including that one attempt for gore after a fall. And since when does blood turn into red smoke lmao?

If you really want to get even with someone, convince them to see this mess. Thankfully, I saw this with a bunch of friends with lots of beers and bongs, and because we couldn't stop laughing out loud how terrible this was, I'm giving this a very generous 2/10 for comedic value. Mr. Bronzi, please spare all of us, and yourself the embarrassment, and use whatever lottery winnings you have left to buy a yacht and some babes and never speak of acting again. Thanking you in advance.

A very low-budget movie that is chock-full of really, really bad (and really, really slow) fight scenes, bullets that look cheaply done, and a Charles Bronson-lookalike which I'm pretty has had half of his lines re-dubbed.

The plot is simple: man goes to claim his dead brother's money, man gets sent to jail on false charges, man breaks out of jail, man gets his final revenge. Now the story is schlock and the acting of EVERYONE is amazingly bad. But there is something satisfying about the final vengeance kill. THAT gives the movie one extra star in my book. Otherwise, it's really, really mediocre. Not insultingly worthless mediocre, but mediocre as all hell regardle

Finally, what's with the film's fascination with poorly digitized birds? Seriously, look for it. Just so very odd.

Of you that likes to watch a movie at higher speeds than usual, use 1.5 ffwd and mr. Bronzi becomes the legendary charles bronson , yet again!!!! He is still the spittin' image of the cultstar of the 70's, and he must be charles bronsons twin brother born 30 years later as a result of their mums teratoma birth, and its a shame tto say, mr bronzi has become even better on the acts.

We all know the 70's spaghetti westerns, with its telephonic sounds and whipsnapping sound effects, well this is the 2020's tortellini thriller, with fist fights and gunfights and gore and splatter that just a b- movie can bring forward, its a very well done charade, a multitude of prison break movies turned into one completely new one, where the reaper man never reaches the main cast, and where retakes is an unknown procedure, and the hallelujahs of glorious hudlums covers the mould eaten prison walls and the special effects is made outta the first version of photoshop.

So a low level production it is, it has all the glitches of soundboom shadows and production crew reflecting in the pilot sunglasses, but its just a fictional rump made outta neanderthalic capabilities amd a storyline written with the commandments of prisonlife as the inspirational source. Its a funfare for all of us loving bud spencer and terrence hills brawlouts and barfights in the 1970, no more intellect is required.

Well its not a feinsmaeckers movie, let that be said from a grumpy old man, that has mr bronzi rolling up as the new vigilante favourite on the silver screen. Its fodder for the black out party, ill give it an 8 for the clichees and action comedy and choice of cast, especially the prison caracters.
