The Weapon

How the hell did this even get made? Who owes Tony Sheena so many favors that they actually let this asshat star AND direct this pathetic mess. How much did they have to pay CGJ to be in this? Also, when does he show up? I think I missed it between the worst, fake fight scenes I've ever seen and checking my spam mail because I was so bored I would rather read phishing emails and ads for Viagra.

Yes, the editing is terrible. But don't blame the editors. They were just trying to splice together some semblance of a narrative from the train wreck of raw footage. It's pretty clear that Tony Sheena wants to be an action star, but his Small Dick Energy is too overwhelming. He's so unconvincing as just a human being, much less a star. To call his acting wooden would be an insult to wood. Avoid at all costs.

This is just a very terrible mivie. Given the cast I didn't think it would be nearly as bad as it is. It is an overly convoluted action movie that lacks much in the way of real action. And the story just makes no sense at all. The acting is extremely sub par and the script is down right awful.

Now I must ramble on because IMDB requires a minimal number of characters for a review. Spoiler alert - there are no spoilers in this review. You can't really spoil a movie that is this bad. To say this movie is cliche is an understatement. From the first scene to the last it keeps getting worse. Do yourself a favor and pass on this movie.

This is such a mess, it looks so low budget, and the script is very weak. There is a good performance by Cuba Gooding Jr. But the editing of his dialogue scenes are quite weak. As for the acting of the rest of it, other then the immortal Bruce Dern's scene is so abysmal its hard to watch. The fight/action scenes are poorly choreographed, and camera angles are so clumsy its obviously not realistic. Telling a story like this takes quite a bit of setting up, character history is vital. Yet here this about 4 minutes of history, which has no real connection other then clumsy flashbacks. Trying to make a film like this usually takes multiple rewrites to get the dialogue to flow. This looks like they rushed through it in a few days, or weeks.

I have many other criticisms but why bother the film is just worth it.

Wow! Was expecting so much with a few good names in the cast; but, this was baaaad. Jerky storyline told via disjointed flashbacks, stilted and trite dialogue, badly choreographed fight scenes, poorly developed characters...just awful. I started playing it and it soon became just background noise to pass the time while I did some mundane household chores. Just terrible. Sad to see Bruce Dern and Cuba Gooding lent their names and talents to such a low budget effort. I guess everyone has to pay the utility bills and a job's a job. Do yourself a favor and pass on this one, I'm not sure it was even worth listening to in the background....find something else that's worthy of your time.

The acting is sub-par, the dialogue is stunted and delivered as if by recent graduates of Madam Pickle's Backstreet School of Acting.

A meaningless soundtrack overlays everything - I got 16 minutes into the film before turning it off, going to bed and crying myself to sleep at the rapid demise of quality cinema.

I couldn't even wait for Gooding to make an appearance who might have improved the quality of this movie - I couldn't take it any longer than I did.

The script is full of clichés and don't worry, there are no spoilers here because I've already forgotten every utterance of every actor in this ridiculously bad movie.
