Lacked Realism
This film essentially begins with a former Marine by the name of "William Duncan" (Clive Standen) picking up his 16-year-old daughter "Kat Duncan" (Maddie Nichols) after a softball game and heading to a local Mexican restaurant to grab some food on the way home. The scene then shifts to a young man named "Danny Fetter" (Cabot Basden) looking forward to joining the criminal organization his father "Donnie Fetter" (Bruce Willis) had ruthlessly created. To do that, however, he has to prove his worth by passing an initiation test. So, after being given a pistol, Danny is told to accompany his older brother "Rory Fetter" (Theo Rossi) to a general location and murder the first person they see. And as fate would have it, the first person they see is Kat Duncan sitting in a car waiting for her father to return from the restaurant. Now, rather than reveal any more, I will just say that this film started off reasonably well but gradually became more and more unrealistic the longer it ran. Incredibly unrealistic. That being said, while I can certainly enjoy a good action film every now and then, this one was just a bit too much to take, and I have rated it accordingly. Below average. - torchedcherry - 16 May 2023
Horrible Acting
Lasted about 10 minutes before couldn't stand the bad acting anymore. The story seemed crap too but hard to tell from 10 minutes.
I eagerly started the show, expecting an engaging plot and powerful performances. However, within the first 10 minutes, I was disillusioned. The acting was mediocre at best, with forced dialogues and lack of emotional depth. The story seemed disjointed and unoriginal, filled with cliches and trite scenarios. It lacked intrigue and direction. Despite the short viewing time, I found myself unable to endure the poor quality. The experience was a stark reminder that not all hyped shows meet expectations.
