Entertaining
December 1, 2018
Yes it was predictable at times and we all know the reality of some of the plot isn't possible, but still this was fun and entertaining. This wasn't a waste of my time because I know what I am getting myself into when I push the play button. So if you want a good action packed movie with lots of twists, this works out just fine.

Major disappointment
April 29, 2017
Whoa, way sorry I bought this one. Trailer fooled me. Bad story, bad writing, bad acting and even bad action scenes. Not that they didn't do what a budget like that allowed for, but they didn't do it like I expected from a Jamie Foxx film. I lost interest many times, but at least some of my mind kept me watching...the part of my mind that wants its money's worth. Sigh. Five star everything expected and it just comes off as a cheaply done production. Again, though, not that some of the parts were not worthy, but that the stupid parts were as stupid as a typical zombie film's parts can be stupid. Meanwhile, sure nice to see so many familiar faces....NOT.....distracting to me so much that I was naming the films I'd seen half the actors in previously.
Not worth even the rental price. And I really like Jamie Foxx.
And as long as I'm at it, may I ask writers of action films to maybe just maybe ONCE could you have folks acting really hurt when by all rights the blow or knife wound or two story drop or bullet wound or the tenth fist and kick fight of the day. No one can take a bullet in real life like any of these characters did. I'm miffed.

A movie so bad that you have to see it. The script wasn't well thought out and Jamie Foxx's acting was horrible. For some reason, when it's all over they want to keep open the possibility of a sequel.
Millions in drugs in a locker and they want you to believe that one of the two cops involved would leave it to his partner to bring it in.
It's 2016 and they don't have facial recognition software in a major casino. One goon chases Jamie Foxx and his kid for a significant period of time... Eventually, there's a whole gang chasing them but that's how the chase starts. A shootout and cops don't lock down the whole casino and hotel?

Don't waste your money and bore yourself. You know how the movie ends and develops by watching the first five minutes! Jamie's and the entire cast's performances are stupid, monotonous, and predictable. This movie absolutely lacks all elements of a good action movie -- abysmal poor performance by the entire cast and director.

Hmmm. No wonder no 'buzz' (critical chatter) was given this production before it arrived at the box office. Good (not great-superb) acting by Jamie Foxx, the cast and specifically Gabrielle Union for the limits of their roles. Overall folks, this production was lack luster and not worth $7-$12 at your box office. Wait for its arrival to Amazon, HBO, etc.

Barely two stars. Wasn't the worst movie ever. But boring. Not even Jamie Fix could save this junk.

Typical shoot it out, good cop/bad cop, who's the bad cop action thriller flick. If you're bored and want a movie with predictable action kicks on a slow day it's worth the rent.

Solid flick in this genre....sit back and enjoy the tension....my preference is still that the "good guys" win

about one of the stupidest movie I bought because I drank too much beer!

Really a so-so movie. So many scenes were so far fetched that I was waiting for Santa or the Easter Bunny to appear. Paid $3.99 here, a dollar at Redbox is a much more fair price for this masterpiece.
