User Reviews

Pretty forgetful film

I didn't really enjoy this movie at all, I especially hated all the characters in this movie, especially the criminal cause he tries to act all charismatic and stuff but he simply is not. It just wasn't that entertaining and the film felt a bit too narrow to the point everything is so predictable. Although this isn't one of the worst I seen of this type of genre but it's far from the best. It just feels like a waste of time after watching it though. Overall it's a pretty dull movie from beginning to end, and I didn't even think the action sequence was that good either.

4.5/10
