Featured reviews
"Point Blank" has been the name of multiple crime dramas in the past. This one sticks out thanks to the outstanding acting from Frank Grillo's (Abe) and Anthony Mackie (Paul). Frank Grillo´s performance is absolutely one of his best ever. Anthony Mackie´s acting is just sublime and natural as always. I hate to say it but Frank Grillo´s performance is just a dash better. And what a rollercoaster of action scenes. And the pace of the movie. Wow! The plot is straightforward but at the very last second of the movie it comes with a twist. Seldom I write about the music and soundtracks used in movies. However in this movie two songs stick out and match perfectly with the scene playing out right in front of you. "The look of love" by ABC at the end and "Love Missile F1-11) by Sigue Sigue Sputnik. What a match! The movie within the movie in the last 15 minutes is also brilliant. The money shot!
If you like action and crime movies, mark this one. 100% sure you will enjoy this movie.

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 :)
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.
This film tells the story of a male nurse who has to save his wife from dangerous criminals.
It has big name actors and is action packed. There are many fight scenes which should be thrilling. The soundtrack doesn't suit the film though. Editing is not as tight as it could have been, but it is an above average Netflix film.

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