Mad Dog

I watched this today. I liked it, Luke Goss is a great actor, he has that Clint Eastwood look and vibe to him. The action and martial arts shots were great. The movie carried along, i like this movie and I would recommend it. The supporting actors were good too. The soundtrack is good too. The song is called "Stop Playing" by KC Bandz. I am not always a commercial blockbuster type of person when it comes to movies, shows, and music. I think this Soundtrack and Movie is a hidden gem. I've added this song to my playlist from finding it through this movie. I like Blockbusters as well as Independent and non commercial films and music.

This movie is worth a watch, neglect my 5 rating. Here's why:

I really liked camera work. Good cameras were used for this movie and really good cameramen. It's really nice to watch.

Luke Goss was pretty good in this movie. He's good at playing tough guys. But there were a few other actors that were not that good.

The story is not very good, but it's OK. It's not fast paced, but still pretty intense. However sometimes it's hard to understand what's happening.

There's a lot of thing happening in this movie, so it's quite hard to predict what's going to happen next.

On overall it's an OK movie and it's the first movie I have seen with Luke Goss. I really liked him, so I'm planning to watch a few more movies with him ;)

For God's Sake !! Another above average movie about terrorists, where is the creativity of movie makers? I even don't know why I lose my time watching this movie. In fact, I didn't watch it all, but what I see was enough... The movie is absolutely predictable, the good guy has some problems, but at the end he (presumably, i did not see) overcomes all of of them. It is an action movie, with the typical more of the same approach. Perhaps the best quality of the movie is that it is short, the suffering is not so prolonged. So here am I losing more time with it. Simply said, this movie belongs to the category "avoid like the plague"

Watched this movie with a friend and we both thought it was worth a bucket of popcorn and the 1.5 hours. Is it academy award winning material? Absolutely not. Is the storyline new or innovative. Again, no. However, I thought Luke Goss had good screen presence and to see RZA continue to branch out of his music origins is a welcome sight. A previous reviewer focused on RZA's poor acting skills. I didn't see that. This is his 3rd movie that I have seen and I see him getting better. I must state that Bokeem Woodbine's character was unimpressive. He tried to do the 'hard/killer' roll and it fell flat. With all that said I suggest to take a chance and have a look see. You won't be blown away but you won't be disappointed either.

"This will all be over with soon." Conrad Miller (Goss) is a marine in possession of classified government information. When he leaves his post to investigate what he has many people are upset. Now, he is not only trying to evade the CIA, but the LAPD, a Russian agent and an assassin who not only want the information for themselves, but him dead as well. I thought this was actually better than I was expecting it to be. Most of these action B-movies are identical and formulaic. While I can't say this one wasn't I will say it was entertaining enough to keep me watching. Luke Goss is a good choice for this genre of action but even he can't make a movie like this better than it really is. The movie itself is entertaining and I have seen much worse, but its really nothing amazing or anything to rush out and see. Overall, entertaining enough but really is the kind of movie to just put in and veg out to without having to really think. I give this a B-.
