Assaut sur Wall Street

I actually liked this movie. I agree with what Dominic Purcells character stood for, and I rooted for him the entire time. He's kind of a modern day hero. I read most of the user reviews before I watched, and I was kind of ifey about watching it. But I must say, most of the users were pretty harsh on the movie and Uwe Boll, the director. Uwe Boll did a good job with this flick, Good characters, whom are all pretty well known actors, good locations, and great filmography. Although, there were a few scenes that made me shake my head and think, "Nope, wouldn't happen like that." Or, a scene just played out kind of silly, But overall, I enjoyed it and I would recommend it.

Not a bad movie at all. I was surprised as most people writing reviews and commenting on the boards who were going into this film with very little or without any expectations at all.

It started rather slow and with no stand out scenes in the first 30 minutes or so whilst the plot and characters were being established. If it wasn't for pretty decent performances from the main stars then I don't think I would have made it past the 30 minute mark. Thankfully I kept watching and as the story progressed I found myself becoming more engaged.

I felt the politics and financial information was explained in just the right detail for someone who isn't aware of what goes on in Wall Street.

Jim Baxford (Dominic Purcell) who is a loyal and caring husband of Rosie Baxford (Erin Karpluk) finds himself pushed over the edge as he loses things closest to him due to financial investments gone wrong. He seeks revenge on those responsible using his ex military skills.

Co stars Edward Furlong, Keith David and Michael Paré play Jims buddies and try and help him out best they can even if it comes to turning a blind eye when things start to take a serious turn.

Overall i think Uwe Boll has actually broke his streak of bad movies and delivered a decent movies, so don't write him off just yet and give this a watch. I think you will be pleasantly surprised. 6.5/10

Dominic Purcell and Erin Karpluk deliver performances that belong in a better movie.

The idea that Wall Street engaged in criminal activity and was bailed by the Government is not new. The real criminals walk free with big bonuses, and the people are bankrupt and penniless.

I found it totally funny that a priest was using Psalm 18 at a funeral in the midst of this. It was a call to action. What else can you do when your have lost everything?

All the action takes place in the last third f the movie, but the first part was necessary to set it up. You could see the rage building, and the revenge was sweet. Didn't expect the ending.

Uwe Boll is known as one of the worst directors ever known to be in the film industry for making movies for big budgets and making absolutely nothing back from them.hes hated by all the directors in Hollywood and is mocked by people all over the world.his last few movies have been universally panned by critics all of them adapted from popular video games.after owners of well known game metal gear solid refused to sell the rights to Uwe Boll because his history as a director.

i think he finally woke up and smelled the smoke because his latest film Assault on wall street is actually good.The film stars Dominic Purcell and Erin Karpluk .the film starts as Jim a security guard for an armored truck who is struggling to pay for his ill wife who is recovering from cancer and Jim must find ways to pay for his wife's treatment after his disastrous investment his stockbroker advised him to make.he soon looses everything he has and decides to take extreme measures to get revenge on the rich and greedy people who got him into the situation hes in.although the film starts off slow it somehow manages to keep you interested and you sympathize with Jim and actually start to root for him even though you know what hes doing is wrong.it picks up near the end and to be honest it impressed me even though Uwe Boll has gone really dark for this one.with a A+ performance by Dominic Purcell and Erin Karpluk

this is a film Uwe Boll can actually be proud of and not have to worry about being universally panned.many people will watch this movie and give it a bad review just because of Uwe Boll past and because they quite frankly don't like him or his methods but thats not what film is about.the film is a huge improvement over his previous films and all i can say is Uwe Boll keep it up stay away from the video game adapt ions and concentrate on your own work.now I'm not saying this film is amazing but it is a damn good film.6.5/10

"The real criminals are downtown on Wall Street wearing suits that cost more then any of us make in a year and they steal more money the anyone on Rikers Island ever dreamed of." Jim Baxford (Purcell) is a hard working man with a very sick wife. When advice he took ends with him losing all his money when the stock market tanked his life begins to spiral out of control. When he loses everything he snaps, and no one is safe. This is a movie that will make you feel many different types of emotions, mostly anger. An everyman gets screwed over and the bad news seems to pile on him again and again and finally does what some have only dreamed of. This is another movie that I do not advocate what he does, but it sure is fun to watch. This movie reminded me a lot of Falling Down in the way that that character also snapped and does things that I have always wanted to. By the time he snaps you really feel for him and are almost happy he does. I really liked this and I recommend the movie highly. Overall, one of the best B movies I have seen and Uwe Boll's best movie to date. I give this an A-.
