Enemies Among Us

This movie is one of the worst I have ever seen. Bad right from the beginning. I am 2/3 through it and am writing this review. What an awful movie.

The story is useless. The political bias is so obvious. It is like watching an MSNBC opinion piece.

The characters are stereotypical. If they disagree with the politics of the writer, they are bad.

Bad guys are the like the bad guys in an old fashioned western movie.

A thriller without the thrills. Dialogue is rated 2/10 so the rest must be awful to drag it down to a 1/10 overall.

The film is an abortion on screen. OMG who wrote this piece of ***t? I have seen these actors in other works and I know that they can act. What happened?

The script contains every overused slang phrase of modern speech. The actors deliver lines like they are in a high school play. The worst performance by someone playing a female investigative journalist (she must be sleeping with the producer)I ever seen on screen.

Better yet, how did this ever get released? I saw this when I was looking for something to watch on cable that I had not already seen 10xs. I saw the cast Billy Zane--always good--Eric Roberts--always good. Not a chance this time and for god's sake what happened to Steve Bauer? I hope they did it for the money and the money was good.

amazing.

Why was this alleged "film" made? "Enemies Among Us" was filmed like you were watching a documentary (no disrespect meant to any documentaries). But there was no feel or emotion or decent flow to the film. The writing was horrid and forced. It was like the script was the first lame script someone ever wrote. And the escape scene was preposterous And the directing was missing in action.

Billy Zane, Robin Givens and Eric Robins are decent actors and should have been given the key roles. I don't understand why one of them didn't get the part of the governor. Instead they gave that part to a no name and part suffered for it.

I don't know what the budget for this was, but this had that low budget feel written all over every minute of this.

And I found that the best acting was when no one was talking. What does that tell you about the poor script? There was even an annoying buzz or whine during one of the non-torture prison scenes which didn't belong there. I assume it was either some feedback or really bad sound work.

My best advice is to read a book or watch something else.

I don't usually make reviews, but in this case, I felt it necessary to do so for the good of mankind.

This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. On a scale of 1-10, I gave it 1, but only because I couldn't choose 0 or lower.

All that ever happens in this film is talking, and half the time it's off-topic and supported by terrible acting.

The acting is bad, the plot/story is bad, the action is bad. Take my advice and stay away from this.

I can never get back the hour and a bit that I lost while watching this, but I can hopefully help you to avoid making the same mistake.

When I see people nit-picking Dan Garcia's movies for obvious military blunders( this movie and Garcia's "Flesh Wounds" with Kevin Sorbo) I laugh out loud. The reason Garcia doesn't "consult" the DOD or any other military adviser is because he doesn't care about authenticity, continuity, or quality(Journey to Promethea). He's a convicted drug dealer (google "Kane and Abel prison") who has been churning out these Louisiana made crappers for years. He rakes in state incentives that post-Katrina Louisiana has been shelling out to attract the movie industry and selling these clunkers on DVD and to foreign markets(I saw his Terror Trap on HBO in China!). If you see Garcia Productions attached to any "film" you will be guaranteed to see lots of bad acting, worse direction, and yes, military people with their hands over their hearts instead of saluting old' Glory.
