Riposte armée

I was not expecting this to be a great movie, but it could be an Ok film they had given some thought about how to end it...

Armed Response: An AI again, has it gone rogue or just been subverted? A secret military facility goes dark. A special ops team goes to investigate and finds the guards slaughtered. CCTV footage show them being killed by invisible assassins. Most of the action takes place within the base, dark corridors, rooms, ventilation shafts, the killings continue as the team try to solve the mystery and are themselves picked off. Some gruesome scenes with arms ripped off, shootings, stabbings, strangling and torture through sensory deprivation. A few plot holes and things go ridiculous at times in a rather confused script. But it's just about watchable SF/Horror. Directed by John Stockwell. Showing again on SyFy, Saturday 30 May 00.30.

We are in 2017, a movie with a plot from 2 decades ago is something that we should not see anymore.

Some actors are trying but the script is not helping. Do not lose time with this, just skip it.

A team of pro is re-joined to solve a situation, situation that it is very clear for the audience from the moment of entering in the building, you will be like "I know what it will happen, I know who did it". So it is no fun, no mystery, nothing new, nothing innovative.

I have to admit, something a different reviewer stated is quite right. This could easily be a Seagal movie. Now he can't act in stark contrast to Snipes, but everything else ... I can see that. Actually I'd prefer not to see that, but you get my point. I guess one of the main differences would be that the newer Seagal movie would have (female) nudity included, whatever that means to you.

Now the movie at hand does not make much sense, there's not backup plan and no real plan either I guess. I don't think this will stay with you, technically though I cannot fault it. Do the effects and some stunts elevate the viewing experience? Probably not, but you be the judge

So this is not an action movie starring Wesley Snipes, this is a horror movie with Snipes in it. I went to see if cause the way Snipes was all over the movie poster (all by himself) I was hoping for a decent action film with hopefully one stylish Snipes fighting scenes. What I got instead was something I can see people having a hard time advertising.

Snipes leads a team of marines into a prison where a secret government interrogation tool is being held in order to find out why they lost contact with the first half of the team. As the movie progressed, I'm thinking it was going to be some hi-tech, who-done-it mystery as the crew used surveillance to find out what happen to the first team but as Wesley's team gets picked off one by one, I'm seeing it as a completely different demographic. Even though it's not scary, it still had all the elements,similar to how the action movie, Aliens is a horror movie about marines battling monsters, and how Predator is the same thing. This movie is no where near as good as Aliens or Predator, but it is a very good suspense drama about war. The area where the action takes place is a huge prison that looks like a video game. Plus gene Simmons of Kiss ( who now has a bald head) is in it.

Confused cause I did not get what I came for but it does not disappoint.
