Caça Implacável

I love these movies that Gerard Butler makes now. I'm never gonna complain about him running around kicking butt and being the hero of the piece.

I loved the pacing in this one. After all the excessively long movies being released lately it was nice to see a 90 minute movie at the cinema. It felt like it just flew by. Plenty of action and tension which meant it never dragged or had any unnecessary scenes.

The sound and score were also fantastic. It's worth seeing at the movies just for that.

I just really like movies that know their movies, and Last Seen Alive definitely fits into that category.

It's an easy, enjoyable watch which does exactly what a movie is supposed to do: it entertains.

In "Last Seen Alive" grizzly Gerrard Butler is dropping mis-matched wife Jamie Alexander at her parents' home for a break from each other, when they stop for petrol... and she disappears. As Butler frantically searches for her the plot veers to kidnap, a seedy remote meth lab farm, cop Russell Hornsby, hillbilly baddies like Ethan Embry & Michael Irby, and a fair amount of punch-ups, shootings & explosions. Those expecting twists or complexity may be disappointed, but director Brian Goodman & writer Marc Frydman deliver a taut & engaging enough thriller that's thankfully not as dumb & bloated as so many others. For what it is, it delivers ok. Fair dinkum.

OMG!!! The writers of this movie must have failed script writing class badly! The dialogues are terrible! Some of the stuff the actors are saying either makes no sense and/or are cringy as hell! I get that compared to the normal movies that Gerald Butler usually did, this is pretty low-budget but holy hell, the script for this is so bad! This is especially apparent with Jamie's character's parents, the dialogues that came out from the mouth of those two are so stupid and on top of that, neither one can act to save their lives!!! My god, did Gerald needed a paycheck that bad?

I agree that this kind of stories have been done before, and better, but it was still good enough to entertain me without getting boring. It's a slow start movie but the tension builds up what keeps you interested. The end was actually the best part of the movie, when the suspense was at its highest. The acting wasn't bad at all but we've all seen better, and that was also the case with Gerard Butler who played the main character. I've seen better movies with him but overal it's a plot that suits him. Last Seen Alive is certainly worth a watch, just don't have too high of expectations.

We spent more time highlighting the absurd holes in the script of this film than we did watching it.

It's almost unbelievable to see every minute how the scriptwriters just threw this story together, without any concern for development or the slightest care for the most obvious details So, we have the world's most boring and unprepared detective, who, instead of doing his job, prefers to play psychiatrist, the world's most innocent wife and her parents, the world's most clueless and a husband who is somewhat distracted when his wife leaves, but who faces the dog world alone, unarmed. It's a lot to take in.

It's like "writing a page of the script every sunrise" to see if it works.

It's still possible to get to the end, but the only thing that saves the film is the always well-meaning and dedicated work of Gerard Butler, who always gives the impression that he's really living through the whole hellish situation.
