Black Site Delta

This film tells the story of six military personnel who are locked up in a secret military prison. They soon find out that their facility is raided by a fully armed squad in order to steal a nuclear weapon hidden in the facility. They have to outsmart the squad to stop the squad's heist.

"Black Site Delta" starts off semi-interesting. The introduction of the six protagonists is detailed, making viewers know who they are watching. They all have very distinct personalities, especially the weird psychopath who is not particularly macho but delivers a spine chilling performance.

The rest of the film, I have to say, is not particularly good. I am particularly annoyed and even exasperated by the characters constantly being in the open, when they are in great perils from many gunmen int he facility. Are the six highly trained soldiers really going to discuss their plan of action in the entrance hall of the facility, when gunmen can be marching down any minute? And is Cam Giganget really marching down the middle of a hallway full of dead bodies, as if he is walking down a runway? Do the characters really have to stand right under a spotlight (the scene of Cam Gigandet telling the woman how he loves his daughter), when the bad guy is literally around the corner ready to shoot them? This aspect of the film is so outrageous that makes me super annoyed.

Cam Gigandet's face gets more than the fair share of close up shots. While it may be pleasing to the eye, it also exposes his lack of ability to act. Furthermore, the story is very clichéd too. And surprise surprise, who gets the girl in the film? Granted, the lighting of the film is good. However, when that is the only thing that is good about the film, then there is a big problem.

I'm watching this right now and I am fighting to get to the end of it. A by the numbers script can work with decent acting which is completely absent anywhere in this movie. Add ridiculous scenarios and the lowest of production values into the mix and this movie is right at the top of the list to deservedly sink without a trace. Garbage simple as that.

Was ok nothing special. Army fight action and usual underdog wins

After a bar fight results in a fatality, an American soldier named "Jake" (Cam Gigandet) is sent to a top-secret prison where only those with classified information are imprisoned. As it so happens, however, this prison also contains drones and missiles used to hit terrorist targets elsewhere in the world. Not only that, but a nuclear warhead is also kept there as well. That being the case it is an extremely tempting target for an Afghan warlord named "General Khan" (Arash Mokhtar) whose family was killed by the Americans-and he wants vengeance. To that end he hires a mercenary by the name of "Colonel Irving" (Michael Dale) who proceeds to hire a crack team in order to take the secret base by force. What he doesn't count on are the prisoners who have managed to obtain their release in all of the confusion and are equally intent on stopping them from getting their hands on a nuclear weapon. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this film had potential but suffered from a lack of imagination, bad acting, poorly written script and an extremely predictable plot. That being said, I have rated it accordingly. Below average.

Some movies better not get out of obscurity. This is one of them. And while I do have a knack for low budget movies, there comes a time when by the numbers isn't cutting it anymore. It's many things, from the script to the lesser than one dimensional characters, to the "acting". I guess you could say the action is decent if you consider the low budget nature of the movie (which means you will not be impressed).

Also the way weapons are handled reaks of amateur hour ... There are so many other things you could do with your time. And I might start thinking about not watching movies like these through. Because they don't get any better and you can tell very early on ...
