Wire Room - Sorvegliato speciale

I agree that Wire Room isn't a good movie by any objective standards. Like most, if not all, of Willis latest movies it is a rather cheap straight-to-DVD movie. It's easy to assume that Willis just showed up to grab the pay check.

But regarding all his movies since 2019/20 it is important to recognize the following: Earlier in 2022 Willis announced to end his acting career after he and his family made public that he suffers from aphasia, which is a brain disorder that can affect a person's ability to speak, listen, read and write. Obviously, this heavily affects his ability to act, remember lines and interact with other actors. This was probably also the reason why he didn't have much screentime in his last big movie, Glass, after the first act.

This puts things into a totally different perspective.

As far as I know Willis is financially secured, he didn't need to do it for the money. He kept starring in movies because he just LOVED making them, being on set and being part of the collaborative effort to create a movie.

It is easy to dismiss Willis' latest efforts as bad movies, they mostly are, but considering his condition offers a different perspective. "Wire Room" will most likely be one of his last movies, his very last movie will probably be "Paradise City" (currently in post-production) in which he worked alongside John Travolta one last time.

Instead of focusing on his last movies, we should celebrate and honor Bruce Willis for all his great work and the impact he had on the whole movie industry in over 40 years.

Thank you for all the amazing cinematic experiences you have given us over the last decades, Mr. Willis. I wish you and your family all the best.

As I sat down to watch the 2022 action thriller "Wire Room", I must admit that I wasn't really expecting this movie to be a particular blast of a movie. Why? Well, given the recent years string of direct-to-video releases from Bruce Willis, then I didn't keep any hopes up.

However, I still opted to watch what writer Brandon Stiefer and director Matt Eskandari had to offer, on the account of "Wire Room" being a movie that I hadn't already seen. And with "Wire Room" also being the last movie to be made by Bruce Willis, of course there was an interest to see what manner of style he would wrap up his career with.

The storyline in "Wire Room", as written by Brandon Stiefer, was actually adequate enough. I mean, it wasn't the most exciting of action thrillers, but it was adequate enough for a single viewing. The storyline was pretty straight forward, if not actually generic, actually.

The acting in "Wire Room" was adequate, and especially Oliver Trevena (playing Eddie Flynn) stole the attention on the screen with his performance.

All in all, then "Wire Room" was an adequate enough movie, though you shouldn't be expecting anything over-the-top or grand here. A sort of bland farewell to acting from Bruce Willis.

My rating of "Wire Room" lands on a five out of ten stars.

While on wire room duty, a federal agent helps out the target he's monitoring when they are attacked.

Director Matt Eskandari offers a bland, flawed fizzled-out film littered with continuity errors and editing issues.

Thankfully reliable Kevin Dillon breathes life into Brandon Stiefer screenplay, along with Rhyan D'Errico's music. Bruce Willis does his hardest to lift the stilted low budget offering above the likes of Anna Nicole Smiths' Die Hard rip off Skyscraper (1996).

What could have been in the vein of The Phone Booth, Enemy of the State, Rear Window is so hack-handled and budget tied that it offers nothing of merit aside from CGI blood, smoke and gunshots.

Sadly, only worth viewing for Dillion and Willis.

I made an IMDB account just to review this movie. It is by far the absolute worst acting I have ever seen in my life. Bruce Willis put absolutely no effort into his part. Kevin Dillon doesn't play his part well. It's basically like they're reading straight off the script. Super amateur & monotone. There's honestly nothing positive to say at all. Script, acting, and camera work are so far below par I'm suprised they even released the movie after watching it. I really thought it had to be a spoof at first because of how gosh awful the acting was, but nope. Just a terrible movie all the way around. Do not waste your time.

NOT a Bruce Willis movie, because the guy is only starring in it for less than 15 minutes in total and in only in a small supporting role. But it is always nice to see Bruce on screen in one of his very last roles, because he is suffering from a neurological disease. So let's enjoy Bruce Willis while we still can!

The brother of actor Matt Dillon, (Kevin Dillon) is the real leading actor in this movie and just as his more famous brother he is kinda goofy, but still a reasonably decent B-movie actor.

The good: there is contineous suspense. I have seen a lot of B-movies, some of them terrible, but this one actually has got some spark and punch.

It aint boring for sure. Lots of shootouts. LOTS. And I did wanted to know how it all end.

The story: Kevin Dillon has got a new job at a wire room, in which the FBI monitors criminals through wiretapping and hidden cameras. All hell breaks loose when there is a mole inside the FBI. Everybody wants to kill the other side. Shootouts till the very end!
