A bad movie

To be honest, I wasn't expecting much from this flick but since I have a weak spot for John Travolta and since it was available on Netflix, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, eventually, it turned out be really lame and even if it was maybe not the worst movie I have seen so far with Travolta ('Battlefield Earth' remains pretty much unbeatable), it wasn't far from it, I'm afraid. First of all, they couldn't have picked up a worst title. Indeed, such lame titles are typical of the most basic direct-to-DVD productions and, to make things worse, it was a major spoiler. Concerning the movie itself, it was another generic tedious action flick about a former special forces agent who decides to avenge his dead wife and ends up killing a whole bunch of bad guys. Seriously, ever since Liam Neeson had a surprise success with 'Taken' (a rather overrated flick, in my opinion), we get so many lame copycats like this one.  In this case, the fact that Travolta wasn't really in great shape didn't help either. Seriously, he wasn't convincing at all and the fact that Christopher Meloni did look the part made Travolta look even more pathetic. Anyway, to conclude, the whole thing was just a big waste of time and you should pretty much avoid it.
