Cemitério

The only reason I started watching this movie was because I wanted to see a thriller/detective AND Mel Gibson was starring in it. Could this be worth a watch?

The bad: Mel Gibson only has got a small supporting role. We only get to see the guy a couple of minutes. Unfortunately the rest of the cast are B-movie actors, who simply can not act and it painfully shows. Not terrible, but way below par...

More bad: what's really annoying though is the fact that this story NEVER becomes thrilling or suspenseful for a second. I dont mind watching predictable B-movies, BUT they HAVE TO BE thrilling and this isnt. Not for a second! To be avoided!

Watching someone as notable as Mel Gibson be involved in such a mediocre film shows how the mighty have fallen. This movie has soap opera grade acting, local cable directing and camera angles, and low budget set/costume design. The premise of the film has a lot of potential but fell beyond flat.

I am a .50 cent fan, but the 10-20 min he's actually on screen is painful to say the least. You'll definitely need subtitles to understand a word he says, all his dialogue (most of the dialogue in the movie) and conversations come off as unnatural. You can tell that the actors/actresses memorized their lines in the parking lot the day of filming.

Save your money and Avoid this Tubi movie.

I gave this movie a shot but it just kept letting me down. It was unevenly paced, which made it draggy when it should have been building, and the action sequences seemed wholly out of place. Yes, Mel Gibson is in this, but there's very little of him in this picture. I have a lot of respect for actors, having spent most of my life around them, and I know they try to elevate the material they are given, but they are only as good as the writing and the directing they receive. And the script frankly stinks. The director never had much a vision about the film he wanted to make. And even though, this is set in Albuquerque, there is almost nothing that feels like New Mexico in this film. Most of the force is of Mexican descent, but there's hardly one cop in it who is brown. Even Ortega is cast white. Not a great picture.

This could have been a really good film as the plot was based on a true story but unfortunately, it failed on account of the awful 50cent has-been mumbling through his lines as if he was drunk and the irritating Ortega with his horrible coarse and irritating voice. Acting was sub-standard, even Mel's acting (sorry Mel)... and casting the beautiful Kesia (Puerto Rican) as the sister of a white American just didn't stand true. The whole film seemed so empty and weak. Ignore the fake 10/10 reviews and me giving it a 3 is being kind. Maybe a 1 or 2. Anyways, if I were you, knowing what I know, I wouldn't waste my time with this!

Van Holt is the main actor in this a detective looking for a serial killer. Mel Gibson is a profiler with the FBI he has about 15 minutes and 50 Cent is police chief also 15 minutes.

The whole thing seems like it was written to be a pilot for a TV show, the entire thing looks like one also, but instead it was made a movie, it happens a lot in the industry. As such some subplots are rushed, some things are unresolved etc.

It's nice to see Mel Gibson he is obviously the best acting talent in this, quite possibly ad libbing his lines because his character is the only interesting one.

It plays out more like one of those crime documentaries, we are just going through the motions.

The movie basically doesn't have what can be called an ending, it's like a first episode of a miniseries, which is probably the most disappointing thing about it. Some things do get resolved but they almost happen off screen and explain with a couple of lines of dialogue so the movie has some cohesion.
