Na Mira do Medo

Really, oh my God, what utter drivel!! The main male Chinese actor is so so bad. The story line so ridiculous and obvious. Who in the hell is telling these people to act in these utterly stupid movies!

I really enjoyed this film. I thought the story was interesting and a new twist on an old favorite. I agree Patrick (Shen Lin) was not the best actor here, but the character was interesting and we were rooting for him. There are some familiar actors in the cast - - not surprisingly because Bobby Roth also directs Prison Break, as well as numerous episodes of various popular dramas like Grey's Anatomy, Criminal Minds, and Agents of S. H. I. E. L. D. Sounds pretty well-connected. I didn't watch Prison Break but recognize Rockmond Dunbar from his woke family character in 911. The videography is good, the venue is good, there are some interesting surprises.

I see at least 2 reviews mention something about a hidden message; one which implied it has to do with the deer. This makes me wish people would just say what they mean rather than talk in riddles to avoid having to add a spoiler tag. Do they think this is pay-back for killing the buck? If so, I (as an animal lover and a vegetarian) disagree that the writer had this in mind. Being in a hunting lodge is super common American fare, especially for a thriller film.

I think a lot of the low stars in this forum are just disappointed in two Chinese actors being the leads. But if it makes you feel better, the story was written by a Daxing Zhang. So it's not just the them "trying to break into Hollywood" as one person claimed. Their women have actually never had a problem literally already being in Hollywood (becoming a sex symbol after we sent out military overseas in WWII). And there are some famous men, as well, including Bruce Lee, Jet Li, and Jackie Chan. Because this film simply doesn't deserve the low stars. It's well-paced, intriguing, surprising, and at times tender.

REVIEW - EDGE OF FEAR

With a synopsis that sounded quite good and starring one of my favourite actor's I thought why not.

Basically a simple story of a group of bad guys and one gal trying to get someone delivered to Mexico and needing a car, so stumble across a house.

Braven had a very similar story but centered around drugs, unfortunately this film just doesn't deliver as Braven did.

Remember the pace / action is slower in thus film because the main hero has been stabbed through the heart.

Robert Patrick needs a good film after Scorpion was cancelled, unfortunately this isn't it.

Nice story, excellent acting, slow with one twist which I saw a mile away.

Rating 5 out of 10

For the first five minutes, I was completely confused about what I was watching as four or five actors with roles in Prison Break made an appearance. That was where my curiosity died a cruel death because this film is predictable beyond belief. There were no plot twists and I could see the ending a mile away, which is a shame because I like many of the featured actors. Don't waste your time and find a Robert Patrick film that actually showed his skills instead. My first review because this film was THAT bad!

I never give 1s and very rarely give 10s so a 6 means a very watchable movie.

The one reason is it's a very tense, edge of your lazyboy, suspense movie. You are engaged throughout, care about the actors, and for the most part are glued to your TV.

There is just one predictable, pretty lame, scene with a knife at the end that makes you roll your eyes but, that's it.
