The Chemist

First of all the story is a standard action flick story. Fine. It's told in such an unrealistic and laughable way that you have to keep watching. It's like they forgot to include parts of the story.

The acting is UNBELIEVABLY bad. For everybody in the film. I can forgive a few bad actors in a very low budget film but this was another level.

They also seem to think that a fight scene is made with slo-mo and no choreography.

Funny for 5 minutes, the whole film is poorly written, told, shot, lighted, acted and generally executed. It's torture, folks.

There is 102 minutes of wasted time, that I will never see again!

It is not that often that I feel compelled to write a review, but this is undoubtedly the crappiest action movie I have seen in decades. Assassin X makes all the later Steven Seagal, Dolph Lundgreen and JC Van Damme movies seem like Oscar worthy epic movies.

In Assassin X we are graced with a whole slew of unknown actors and the result speaks for itself. Not only is the acting dreadful, one could find better and more gifted actors by throwing a dart at any local community theater anywhere in the country, but the script is a total dud.

The story line did have potential but for whatever reason the script just isn't well executed and so the whole movie took a nosedive.

Lackluster action movie with terrible direction. The overuse of slow mo, poor editing, flash backs you don't realize are flashbacks. Horrible acting , the female lead really hams it up in the face acting department . Gruner looks like he is sleep walking . However Patrick Kilpatrick makes for a good villain. Fight choreography is for the most part quite flat. A couple of OK if generic plot ideas and Kilpatrick's villain can't save it.

For some reason it has a few seconds of pointless cameos in it for a seemingly unrelated scene. Overall it does have some so bad it's funny moments, but is completely forgettable 3/10

But I don't blame any of the actors. The producer and director should have thrown this out once they read the script.so that pretty much tells me of their skill in making this a movie. I've seen worse movies but I don't remember what they were, this would certainly rank with the ultimate bottom. No sense in wasting anymore of my time with this review.

I honestly try to find the good in smaller budget action flicks like this, but this movie was SO BAD it was truly unwatchable.

I agree with whoever commented above; the worst thing about the movie was the abysmally poor acting- especially the terrible performances by "actors" Steven Dell (Blaine) and Stephanie Gerard. I don't know if they are relatives of the producer or how in the world they convinced anyone to allow them to be on screen, much less paid to act? I mean the acting is so bad I could smell the stink through the screen.

Dell seemed to just rely on flexing muscles and continuously looked lost and confused the entire time he was on screen. He was so ridiculous that it was distracting; while Nina Bergman (Trinidad) was over eager and theatrical- and almost as silly to watch. No reasonable effort was put into making a coherent story line or good camera work. And even less effort was put into bringing the characters to life. It seemed more like a group of adults playing an awkward game of dress up and make believe. These people should not be making movies they clearly have zero background in acting, nor any talent as actors.

Action sequences were unrealistic, over-acted, dark and even hard to see (I mean physically see lol. Poor camera work) Plot "twists" were predictable and boring. This performance is the type where you feel insulted as an audience that people are trying to pass this off as a movie just to make a buck off you.

I agree with the post above- no idea who is giving art Camacho money to make movies but pouring it into a lackluster script like this and into ridiculous actors like these is really wasteful. How wonderful if instead that money Was just given towards the arts for kids in underprivileged areas, or really to any cause other than this train wreck of a movie.
