While thousands of Romans filled the Colosseum to witness the glorious brutality of gladiatorial events, the idea of man hunting man classed itself up in the 20 century with the novel “The Most Dangerous Game,” in which a wealthy hunter invited a big-game hunter to his island for the ultimate hunting experience. After several screen incarnations, the basic storyline was given a shot of satirical extremism for 2003’s Battle Royale, which turned middle school students against each other with explosive neck collars for reality TV viewing pleasure. For the concept’s latest rendition, The Condemned doesn’t attempt to inject anything new into the story. In fact, it takes Battle Royale’s basic framework and strips it of its satirical strengths, making a dumbed down, manufactured movie...Read more

Standard action romp...

Posted : 10 months ago at Jan 26 4:09
Jack Conrad: "You know, I don't know who you are, and I don't care. But I don't play games." Ian Breckel: "You don't have to win... but everbody plays." There's something moralistically baffling about a balls-to-the-wall action flick that simultaneously celebrates violence and scolds an audience for celebrating violence... This above sentence refers to The Condemned; a WWE-produced action film helmed by Scott Wiper (A Better Way to Die is another entry to this director's CV). Borrowing heavily from Battle Royale, The Most Dangerous Game and The Running Man, it's apparent that this derivative production won't merit any points for originality. That said, The Condemned is an exploitative and entertaining action film that delivers precisely what any viewer expects: graphic violence, pu...Read more

Hilarious OTT action.

The premise for The Condemned is simple, it's a Battle Royale rip off. That is to say, a bunch of people are stranded on a desert island and they have to kill each other until only one survivor remains. Instead of school children, The Condemned sets up an island full of convicts on death row. Thankfully, the protagonist (WWE hero Stone Cold Steve Austin) was wrongly imprisoned, so it's OK for us to sympathise with him. The show is broadcast live, illegally, on the internet and the psychotic director aims to hit a record number of online viewers. He has the archetypal megalomaniac personality and serves only to provide a detestable villain for Stone Cold to hunt down in his spare time. The fact that he is broadcasting live opens up a pointless sub-plot whereby the FBI attempt to crack do...Read more

Finally this movie made it to the UK on DVD never even came to the cinema here at all which pi**ed me off sorry for my swearing. This movie was great the death scenes were awesome some were a little to sick.
Stone Cold is fantastic for the part and Vinnie Jones is an evil SOB check out the movie and watch tons of people die.
