Blood Out (2011) Reviews
staring 50 cent???
paint by numbers cop revenge movie that if you judge a book by its cover should of stared rapper 50 cent who actually was in one scene. i really only wrote a review to point that out. boring movie, no surprises, average performances by the actors and direction which lacked just that direction. it is a boring straight to DVD action movie nothing more. DO NOT BUY if your looking for a cheesy rapper movie like i was. pros: alright sound track fight with former wwe star bobby lashley at the end cons: 50 cent: i know i watched this cause he was on the cover but to tell the truth its probably a good thing he was barely in it. he was terrible everything else.
A lot better than expected
I would rate this film a 6.5 out of 10. I went in definitely with very sub par expectations especially considering the opening 5 minutes of the film seemed like a blatant rip off from the opening 5 minutes of the Assault on Precinct 13 remake. Once the film moved on passed that and I adjusted to the passé (and much recently overused) style of shaky camera syndrome I was able to absorb that the film had much more to offer. Filmed in Louisiana it had a much grittier look than Los Angeles and definitely helped sell the film a lot more than a typical gang-banger flick shot in Compton. Also the film featured 50 cent but another refreshing aspect was typically in a film of that nature (a film that features a prominent rapper) more than half the soundtrack would be wishy wash songs by that artist; but this film instead had many underground and fresh artists collaborating to create a very enjoyable mix. Even the credits outro song was very good (albeit stealing the riff from 'Slow-Motion for me' rap song). Val Kilmer. Well what can you say about his appearance in this film? Is it me or has he resorted to these very bit small parts in all sorts of independent movies. He is much bigger than his days of Chris Knight in Real Genius but his presence does its job and doesn't distract the viewer all too much. More distractions fall all the sexy eye candy that is spread all over the film via slave girls in S&M outfits and Victoria Secret angel garb. A minute into the film a sexy breast is presented to us but don't let that fool you, the movie is far from a late night Skinemax T&A film... in fact after that opening gratuity shot not many more nipples make there appearance. Luke Goss is a very well fit for this film and his acting hits the X. Very believable in a role in which I don't think many men could pull off. The director, Jason Hewitt (I believe his first film directing), does a very good job in telling a way too common vigilante (cop goes undercover) story in a unique way so that the viewer doesn't feel like they are watching recycled Hollywood garbage that has been done so many times before. All in all the film is recommended (specially if you are in a macho guy action flick mood) and the soundtrack would be worth hunting down.
Another DTV Scam
This is a cheap looking DTV Movie, is that redundant? Not always, but here it is nonetheless, and it reeks of bottom barrel badness. Rapper 50 Cent Produced this thing and he manages to mangle the English Language, swallow His words, and mumble for the complete 30 seconds he is on the Screen. Then has the audacity to put His Name on the Box. Ditto pretty much Val Kilmer, and Vinnie Jones although they don't Mumble they just barely show up. The Colors are washed out and the lighting is awful, the Camera shakes as this announces Action and Excitement. There are many obligatory parades of Babes in varying poses as eye-candy and Gangsta Ho hangers on. The Plot tries to have some Pathos with a Murdered Brother, a White-knight Cop, and a Pregnant Street Gal who must give up "the Life" for her Baby. Nothing here is worth much and it barely reaches the Competency Level and when it does it drops to below standard quickly. Nothing here worth your time unless you must see every Gang-Related Retread made available for a seemingly insatiable Home Video Market.
Generic, by the numbers and all too predictable action thriller you've seen a hundred times before
STAR RATING: ***** Saturday Night **** Friday Night *** Friday Morning ** Sunday Night * Monday Morning When cop Michael Savion's (Luke Goss) small time hood brother David (Ryan Donowho) is killed by mob boss Elias (Tamer Hassan) for suspected betrayal, he takes it on himself to dispense justice after ineffectual assurances by Detective Hardwick (50 Cent.) After making a name for himself around town, taking down some hard nut local gang bangers, he finds himself invited into Elias's inner circle and asked to work for him. Elias sets his sights on turning Savion into his fighting champ in an up-coming underground fight to determine which criminal empire rules, and where Savion will strike the spring in his tail. Action is one of my favourite genres, easily one of the most entertaining and releasing of the movie art forms. But, defend it though I might, even I couldn't argue with the point that it certainly isn't a genre known for needing your brain or particularly your imagination to much extent. It's unique in the sense that any half wit writer can think up the most lazy, formulaic idea and, as long as it delivers on the 'action' quotient and gives the audience what they've come to see, it can get away with this. For a lot of action films this does work but, while Blood Out is not quite a disaster, the laziness of the story and the join the dots script ends up making it more of a chore to sit through than a simple piece of violent, brainless fun. Debut director Jason Hewitt doesn't seem to have any history of directing music videos, but the frenetic style he uses to shoot the film and tell the story leaves you thinking this might have been a fair assumption to make. The plot is not only simplistic but wavey and slightly incoherent, and coming in at just under an hour and a half, you've still been clock watching to see when it might be over simply on account of how bored you've ended up getting with it. None of the cast can give especially great performances, because all the roles are so generic and one dimensional, from Goss as the 'man out to avenge loved one' good guy to Hassan's cardboard villain. A host of supporting stars, including 50 Cent, Val Kilmer and Vinnie Jones (an interesting appearance, given his and Hassan's reported fisticuffs bust up in which he came off the loser) appear in what end up feeling like minor roles. I guess if you want a simple violent, undemanding action film, Blood Out might do. But this story has been done so many times before and so much better, you might be wiser to search around. Try under Chuck Norris. **
Great Action
Some people watch this movie just because 50 Cent is in it, think its a rap movie or something, build up expectation for it, but gets disappointed which makes it an unpleasant experience . to fully get the full feel of this movie is just to sit, relax, let it build, and keep a good eye on the character. Luke Gose gave a stunning performance, his character keeps building throughout the movie. Moreover the script was nicely written. smart saying and quotes, which is perfectly timed. Directing is perfect for this kind of movies, and the last end speech before it ends unexpectedly is great. i didn't want it to end, didn't see it coming its a MUST SEE!
