Kill Kane

I actually like Vinnie. He has done a couple of really good acting jobs. His Brit flicks and I enjoyed him in Midnight Meat Train. Fair enough he never spoke but he was good. He is not as bad as people make out but sadly just gets trash like this nowadays to show what he can do.

A film so bad nobody could even be bothered to write a fake review.

I seem to recall this was done once before and rather well at that. Sadly Vinnie is no Bronson and sadly this has no script either.

Daft as I may sound I think Vinnie could do well if given a decent role in a film that had a decent story and some decent actors in it.

He will never trouble Broadway but deserves better than the garbage he is given.

One day he might well surprise everybody. Sadly this is not his breakthrough role.

So bad we may have to invent a whole new language to articulate our thoughts about such rubbish.

In a derivative story of suburban violence| family man Ray Brookes(AKA The voice of Mr. Ben) seeks revenge when his wife and children are murdered by infamous gangsters (Brian Kant and Floella Benjamin). Unable to place his order for chips with curry sauce he is left with no faith in the justice system and with nothing left to lose except 74 minutes of low quality 'entertainment' he turns vigilante, crazy ape bonkers, bat-sh*t but not the other cheek and stalks the streets like some kind of cockney leopard on the hunt for those who robbed him of a future as a football pundit.

Watch this movie or have your colon cleansed, the choice is yours.

This is a seriously bad film... I really don'y know where to begin whether its the entire premise, the gaping holes in the story, the script, the acting, the effects... well, the everything.

I don't often review but after losing my investment of some 74 minutes in this woeful film I felt the need to warn others.

But first let let me lay down my credentials... I don't act, direct, produce or have any other pre-release involvement in the film industry but I do watch, and this.... is simply not worth watching.

I normally enjoy Vinnie Jones in his stereotypical role of ultra violent vigilante or similar and it was his name that attracted me to the film... but this was hard to stomach. The acting was awful from start to finish and the story wafer thin and generic.

Anyone who gives this more than a 2 has a financial interest in the film.

There are better things to do with your 74 minutes.

Did not want to dislike 'Kill Kane'. It was again not a bad, if not new, premise and Vinnie Jones has given dependable performances in the past. It had potential to work, and would have done with effort being obvious and like those in front of and behind the camera had their hearts in it.

Neither of which can be seen with 'Kill Kane', something that is really quite unforgivable. Have seen worse films, recently and ever, but that doesn't stop 'Kill Kane' from being a very poor film with no redeeming traits and a lot of things done absolutely terribly. There is not much to add to what has been said very well already and the review is at the risk of repeating what has been said. Just for the record, 'Kill Kane' was watched with an open mind and not without the intent or want to dislike, let alone hate, the film, quite the contrary.

All the acting ranges from insipid to terrible, nobody looks engaged or at ease. Jones phones in and lacks vigour and intensity for a role needing both for it to work. In all fairness the characters are clichéd and are never engaging or easy to get behind, didn't care or endear to any of them.

The chemistry is static, likewise with the barely existent direction. The script is from start to finish is a cringe, weep and toe curl-fest with lots of overblown soap-opera melodrama and no depth whatsoever.

Furthermore, the story has no tension or suspense whatsoever, is very lifelessly paced and executes a not particularly new if intriguing idea with no imagination or originality. Basically non-stop indifferent dullness and predictability that takes itself far too seriously to be fun. 'Kill Kane' has a very dreary, one-note and less than slick visual style with well below average visuals and no attempt at authenticity. The sound is monotonous and over obvious, while the lighting lacks atmosphere and consistently and the photography lacks focus and often static in the more dramatic scenes.

In conclusion, awful with a noticeable lack of effort. 1/10 Bethany Cox

This is total bilge of the highest order! Absolutely terrible...beyond any redemption! Horrendously-bad actors and actresses...and script, (insult to the word "script', tbh)! If this was a school production, during my secondary school days, it would have been laughed off the stage! 5 year olds would not have acted so badly! I have always liked Vinnie, but I sense his pay for this was a vast majority of the £75K budget for the whole production! He deserves it, as money for service to an excuse for a movie, 9 days or 9 months to make this, but 9 years could not save this poor excuse for a movie!
