7 Cases tries to be a thriller and fails. It looks and sounds both amateurish and boring. It concerns two criminals called Mitchell & Floyd trying for one last big score. The score entails a robbery after which the money that they stole is divided into 7 cases. The day after the robbery Floyd and Mitchell wake up to find the cases gone. They are left with instructions to go to different locations where the cases are and when they get there they can either choose to take the money or to save a person in imminent danger. They can't have both. So they either save the life of someone they know or take the case. The rest of the movie is spent trying to retrieve the cases and diffuse the traps that their nemesis (played by Stephen Berkoff) has set.
The dialogue in this movie is very bad at times and the acting is not much better. The editing seems choppy and the movie tries to emulate the death traps which were utilized better in the Saw films. This wouldn't be an issue if the movie was interesting but it is not, and starts dragging as the time goes on. I hoped that Stephen Berkoff would add something to the film given how many villains he has played in the past but alas this was not to be. The most interesting thing about this film is that Berkoff has more acting credits under his name then the rest of the cast combined. Overall this was a disappointing waste of time. A generous 2/10.
