Dead Drop

Luke Goss turns in his typically gritty, tough-guy performance. Why this guy is mired in B-rate,straight to video films escapes me. He is, essentially, a bald Clint Eastwood or Steve McQueen.

Nestor Carbonell also performs quite well in this, and Caroline Castro is exquisite.

With most action-drama films, this movie takes a while to get there. But once it does, boy... it really goes there.

I don't understand all of the negative ratings. As I write this, it has a 3.9 rating in IMDb. It is much better than that. I give this film a 7/10 only because as a low budget flick, there are some plot holes. But those don't distract from this compelling, if unbelievable story line (and let's be honest--how many flicks in this genre feature the possible rather than the improbable?).

If you're expecting Academy Award stuff, skip this. If you're down for a gritty, thrilling revenge story that's well-acted, settle in and enjoy.

I like Luke Goss. Most of his movies especially in the last decade has been DTV action stuff but i enjoy his acting, his presence, and sometimes the movies are fairly entertaining for there "DTV status". Sadly this is not one of them.

The story is played a bit as a mystery but the stuff happening never make you want to really know what happened. There is a decent ammount of action scenes and there not "terrible" by any means, but they ain't that interesting because you don't really care about the story. This is the biggest problem of the movie.

The characters, the story, there interactions, everything is not really interesting and by the middle of the movie you will have lost interest.

There is a character showing up in the middle of the movie that is so forgivable and seem to be there to just throw something at our hero because otherwise things would be too easy for him.

This is the kind of movie where you imagine yourself writing it and how much more interesting you could had made it, even with the same budget.

Even if you enjoy DTV action movies and Luke Goss, its a very forgivable movie that you can pass your way upon. I give a 4 because its "watchable", the acting is ok, the directing is ok, nothing comes out atrocious or anything, but its just a very mediocre action movie because the plot is not really interesting.

Movie is not worth a watch. I watched it due to high IMDb rating but it turned out to be a waste of time.

"If you come clean to me, if you confess then maybe I'll let you live." After Michael Shaughnessy (Goss) wakes up he begins to piece together what happened to him. He was thrown out of a plane and left for dead and now he wants revenge. He tracks his target to a Mexican drug trafficking ring and infiltrates it. He seems to slip in too easy but the farther in he goes the more dangerous and twisted it becomes. There isn't really all that much to say about this one. Another in the long line of B rate action movies that are at the same time generic and not sure of what they want to be. There are some good action scenes in this that keep you interested but then other scenes slow it way down and makes it hard to stay interested in. Unfortunately the boring scenes take up most of the movie and by the end you don't really get the emotion the movie was going for. This type of movie has been redone a million times and it needed something more to keep you interested. Overall, the kind of movie that you forget what your watching as you watch, which really hurts the end. I give this a C.

Just a terrible film, i love B-movies but this one is just so boring, so dull & so pointless it's a hard watch & i only got it because i like the always underrated COLE HAUSER!!! He's wasted in this trash.
