Latest Cena Film Passes Grade, 18 March 2009
7/10
Author: Callum Hackett from Australia

I caught one of the very first screenings of 12 Rounds in Brisbane tonight.

The latest of WWE Films 12 Rounds is a solid attempt at an action movie. The well rounded bad guy character is explored well although his main motivations is some time unclear. The story is excellent with many twists and turns accompanied with high explosions and solid car chases and gun fights.

The acting is where this film plains sucks. Cena does his best and comes of one of the best in the film. The main bad guy Irish accident at times comes of as very bland and plain weird. The actress that plays Molly just plain sucks!! This movie would've been much better if she never opened her mouth! Definintly worth checking out. Great action movie
