First Shift

The trailer looked promising though when I saw Boll as the director I had some mighty reservations but all for naught. This was a very entertaining cop movie and certainly not deserving the low score it has here. And while there a few weirdly shot scenes the movie despite as others have said being somewhat disjointed is actually well directed. The strength of the entertainment is admittedly because of the two engaging lead actors ( I've seen him in guest parts on shows and a couple of movies; her never ) and their endless entertaining banter had my wife and I laughing quite a bit. If you're a dog lover there's a small subplot that you'll definitely enjoy. The only thing missing was a good cop shootout but like most cops work lives, that doesn't happen very often. If this were a show we'd definitely be watching but suffice that they have a possible part 2 in the works or already made. Be sure to hear the fantastic music at the beginning of the end credits.

Movie #6 in me watching every Uwe Boll movie at least once for a video essay. I took a small break since the last movie I watched and decided for my first one back I'll watch what literally JUST released, especially since the crowdfunding for the POSTAL 2 movie just went up. I do wish I could've seen it in theaters just for personal satisfaction, but I rented it on Amazon and will buy the Blu-Ray in the future.

Probably one of the more serviceable films I've watched recently. It's certainly not unwatchable, but there's some acting that just seems goofy, the whole movie feels weirdly disconnected though and it doesn't feel like some scenes really make any impact. Both main characters are genuinely insufferable for the first 2/3rds of this movie and then they suddenly start to get along. It does have some surprising emotional moments that Work. Generally I wouldn't recommend to watch it unless you're an Uwe Boll fan like me. There's a stinger for a part two eventually which I mean, sure? I'd watch it I guess.

Didn't expect to like it, but the movie has heart. It kept moving.

I understand the previous review's claim it was too slow, but it is a style.

Reminds me of the crime genre from yesteryear, sans the detective bent.

Would be great spun off into annual 3 or 6 episode BBC type miniseries.

Actors had good chemistry and situational dialogue was believable.

No spoilers, but I have a good iidea where the sequel is headed.

Enjoyable characters, felt like a pilot and went by fast.

With clever writing, the premise could go in many directions.

Wish I could tune back in next week.

Cross between Starsky and Hutch and Law And Order.

Uwe Bolle the writer, director and producer of this filmed watched too many bad New York City cop films, before he wrote this one. This film is full of cliches and cliched characters. I'm always leery of films where the writer, producer and director are the same person, I'm more leery when they're also the star.

The first incident that they attend, a guy with a clever has been cutting himself but he stops bleeding and the only blood is on the clever. Where is the continuity, the guy should have blood dripping from him.

The dialog is inane. Angela has diarrhea of the mouth, I'd want to get away from her too. The acting is low budget. I gave up, there are much better films I'd rather watch.

Reading the info on this I went into it thinking it would be a good view, I don't put too much thought into a movie except that it's a break from reality for an hour and a half of entertainment but quite honestly this one was kinda boring, the acting was definitely B movie rating, storyline was all over the place and the characters don't really pull you in too well, main character seems guarded but at the same time opens up messing it up for us as viewers, no spoilers here but I wouldn't recommend this one to anyone as like I said, it is on the boring side and one of those movies where you will watch it one time and never again.
