Age of Kill

An absolutely appalling movie, and that's better than the acting. The cast is like a who's who of cockney actors with a bit of female eye candy thrown in. Martin Kemp cast as an ex special ops agent was an awful idea and the movie just gets worse as it goes on. Nick Moran also stars in the movie which was a bit baffling has he's a decent actor I personally think. I've never watched Eastenders while smoking crack but I reckon this would pretty much be close to the result. Avoid and save yourself the hour and whatever.

The film starts of with every good intention and direction of being a good thriller. After that it becomes the usual Johnathan Sothcott produced mish mash of bad acting by miss matched characters to roles that makes the film unbelievable. It is a short film which makes you think that they ran out of money whilst making it, and the script looks like it was made up as they went along. Shame ... cracking Brit Cast who deserve better.

A black ops sniper is blackmailed by a psychotic international terrorist into killing 6 unrelated people in 6 hours... but there is more to the victims than meets the eye. With the excellent acting skills of the wonderful Donna Air, Martin Kemp, Phil Davis, Dani Dyer, I'm being sarcastic of course ...OH MY GOD did they look at the script prior to shooting or was this just an adhoc production ...we need a movie police force to stop people like this EVER EVER making anything that resembles a moving picture ever again ,..................-5 out of 10 Complete and utter garbage Complete and utter garbage Complete and utter garbage AND once again Complete and utter garbage

Review: My expectations for this movie wasn't that high because the critics gave it a bad write up and after watching it, I must admit, it is pretty poor. The acting isn't that great and the storyline was awful. Its about a special ops agent who is blackmailed to take out various people because the baddie is holding his daughter. Another lady is also performing various acts because her uncle is being held by the baddie so they go around killing random people to save there loved ones. I was quite impressed with Martin Kemp in the Krays but his acting in this film was pretty poor. There is some intensity throughout the movie because he has a time scale to take out his victims but the action is terrible and I wasn't that interested in any of the characters. There are a couple of twists, which were also pretty poor, but Martin Kemp does have the potential to become a good actor. He just needs to pick a decent film. Anyway, the concept wouldn't have been that bad if it was made in America but from a UK point of view, the script needed a lot of work and there wasn't any depth to any of the characters. In all, it's just another movie from the UK which is a big disappointment. 

Round-Up: At 53 years old, Martin Kemps claim to fame has to be his role in the Krays and Eastenders. He also had a promising career as a guitarist in Spandau Ballet so his career has had its ups and downs. After suffering with a major illness, his career was put on hold and he hasn't been able to come back into the spotlight. That's not to say that he is a bad actor because I do like his performance in the Krays but after making some bad choices, I really can't see him hitting the fame that he hit earlier on in his career. The film was made by a Welsh, 34 year old director, Neil Jones, who has only made 9 small films in his career. He had quite a good cast to work with on this project but he really didn't get the best out of the actors. For such an intense storyline, I wasn't really that convinced by the actors, from an emotional point of view, which can only been blamed on the director. On the plus side, it is quite short and it's non-stop from the beginning to end so it doesn't drag.

I recommend this movie to people who are into their intense action/thrillers about a special ops agent who is blackmailed to take-out various people. 2/10

This might actually be the first bad British movie I've ever seen. The plot concerns the following : A military sniper played by an actor exactly 10 years too old for the part has his daughter kidnapped by Mysterious Man who will kill her if he doesn't kill 6 people he chooses in 6 hours. Got it? Besides the glaring fact that there are ninety ways for him to get out of it with his supposed "expertese" and all, he does his bidding. Prepare for the most amateur and laughable fight scenes while he does. At one point he dispatches a victim and Mysterious Figure tells him good : "Now where are you?" In other words, he's NOT being watched. So....just fake it and move on. When he's chased by a helicopter, I say again, a HELICOPTER, he takes 4 shots at it with a handgun. It simply vanishes. It ends with a surprise that anyone could see coming followed by a "lesson learned" moral from an American who loves the Twilight Zone. This is a movie that desperately needed Jason Statham and a rewrite.
