Perseguição

John Cusack joins Bruce Willis and Nick Cage in their willingness to have no problem doing a terrible movie for a payday. Subpar from start to finish.

Well, John Cusack is not a guaranteed seal of proper entertainment. And I can say that after having suffered through the 2022 action thriller "Pursuit".

Sure, I had never heard about "Pursuit" from writers Brian Skiba, Andrew Stevens, Dawn Bursteen and Ben Fiore prior to sitting down to watch it. So I didn't know what I was getting myself into here, but I figured that the movie would be adequate, since it had both John Cusack and Emile Hirsch on the cast list.

But that was not to be, because director Brian Skiba delivered what best can be described only as an ambitious low budget action thriller, just without the proper entertainment value that you would expect. So yeah, the movie was a swing and a miss.

The storyline was sluggish at best, and I never really delved into the storyline or the characters, since both were rather mundane and sort of pointless. "Pursuit" doesn't prove to be an outstanding or memorable movie in the action thriller genre. If anything, it is a movie that you should avoid if you enjoy action thrillers, because this movie didn't really have much of either.

Actually the storyline is so cluttered that it is hard to keep track of what is going on and why, so you essentially end up just giving up trying to stay afloat.

The acting performances in the movie were bland, and it felt like the cast themselves didn't buy into the rubbish that the writers had concocted for them.

"Pursuit" came and went without leaving a lasting mark on anything. And this is not a movie that I would recommend you waste your time, money or effort on. Some of us suffered through this ordeal so you don't have to.

My rating of "Pursuit" lands on a generous two out of ten stars.

Save yourself the pain of watching this absolute waste of time. Packing your rectum full of cherry bombs and squatting over a firepit is time better spent.

Really bad. John Cusack plays Nicholas Cage playing John Cusack... Why was this movie made? Did John have a gambling debt? Was Emile trying to sabotage his career? Who knows?... Why did John dye his hair pitch black like Steven Seagal? So many questions, no good answers.

The Gunshots sound canned The Acting is wooden The music sounds tinny Sound effects are the worse & dont match up with the images.

How the producers and directors let this see the light of day is a mystery.
