Corrective Measures

The story had potential but there was so many inconsistencies with the characters that it completely destroyed all emersion. They were so busy trying to push the idea that this character is the tough female cop, this character is the dumb cop, this character is the caring doctor, this character is the religious zealot, etc., that they were not believable. It reminded me of a first draft that you haven't read through to flesh out, fix the logic holes, and make everything is consistent.

I watched this movie on the same day I watched Ambulance and The Northman, this one turned out to be the most entertaining regardless of the fact it's budget was a small fraction of the other two.

It had an interesting story with a blurred line between heroes and villains' and didn't try to pretend to be something it isn't. It was just a basic action movie with criminals having special superpowers and a nice little twist at the end. What I enjoyed the most was seeing Michael Rooker getting a decent role and carrying the movie.

It's a low budget film with Bruce Willis topping the casting we've seen that a lot over the past twelve months. Usually the films are out right terrible (with a couple of watchable exceptions) so the bar is low. In this one Bruce is really in the background but notabley there is a plot here and solid acting backed up by decent special effects. It's far from a top movie but I'm glad Willis has ended his career with a slight uptick in quality after his last few disasters.

A futuristic prison encounter which is just about worth the time investment.

The movie lacked severely in the category of focus...... I mean really... one of the guys gets his powers back that can electrocute a city block but he gets beat to death by a jailer? How? I mean rally how? No depth in scenery with regards to prison staff..... and can we take a second and agree the TV crew idea was an abysmal execution.

The ending was a fabulous surprise.

And the holy executioner was cool.

For these 2 items they get 4 points. Director sucks though.

Okay first off, they need to stop embellishing these movie covers with actors like Bruce Willis as if they're the main star. All of his recent movies are like this. He's the main face on picture but he's barely in it. I've noticed this being done with Liam Neeson too.

Second, and my main complaint is, how over the top Kat Ruston is in her "tough girl" role. I lost interest whenever she was overacting. If she had just played her role better this movie would be 2 stars higher on my rating scale. Dan Payne was also a little over the top as well. Its like he was out of a comic book. Overall would not watch this again or suggest it to anyone. Definitely a background movie or something for the patients at the office.
