Point Blank

Don't expect a masterpiece just a very enjoyably action movie with some good enough acting, a solid 7/10 for me.

This movive reminds me of the 2004 flick Cellular.. it's action packed, brainless fun! Is it groundbreaking? No. Is the plot deep and thick with twists? Not at all. Yet, it's a great way to kill an hour and a half with enjoyable action, cool chases, a dose of humour mixed in that isn't forced like it is in alot of movies and shows these days. It's just a straight to the point good time! I'd recommend it to anyone looking to just kill a bit of time and have some fun in the process :)

I queued up POINT BLANK because I felt like a competently done, fun action movie that wasn't too challenging. Guess what? I got exactly what I expected!

As far as plots go, this one wasn't anything too special, except for the fact it was blessedly free of annoying plot holes. No twists, no blunders, no errors.

The cast is very good for this type of affair. Frank Grillo is charismatic as always, Anthony Mackie gets the job done, and Marcia Gay Harden is as deliciously unlikable as we've come to expect.

POINT BLANK was a good distraction. Escapism in the best sense of the word.

I miss a time when you could look up a review for a movie, and read reviews from fans of that genre. Seems IMDB is no longer a place for that.

The plot was nothing mind blowing, but the action was constant, and the well-performed characters were good. I enjoyed it throughout. Why? Because I like action films. If you do too, and you can put your rational, sensible side away for 90 minutes, then you're going to enjoy Point Blank.

All in all this is a great action movie that harks back to the 90's "best of enemies", "victims of circumstance" romps with bullets and snot, and a heap of smashing stuff up.

It's not amazingly complex but it's a film that you can just switch off your brain and enjoy some action, had a 90s vibe to it, I don't know what people are complaining about the sound track for, I actually thought it made the film better, I agree that some are odd choices but they kinda make it quirky, solid 6.5/10 for me.
