Easily the Worst Film of All Time. Hats Off to the Germans.

Rating: Null/10 (4 January 2006)

This movie was so unrealistic that it was actually amusing. Bruce Willis delivers, in my opinion, the worst performance of his career. Not to mention that his character survives helicopter shootings, explosions, gunfights, and hand-to-hand combat(where he is almost always at an extreme disadvantage) with Rasputin-esquire fervor. I was also rather disappointed in a particular racial slur uttered at one point during this movie. Mr. Willis, I expected better of you.
However, before you heed my advice and run as far away from this movie as is humanly possible, something has to be said for the real stars of the film: Alan Rickman and his wondrous band of terrorists. The performance of Rickman himself is complete with flawless American/German accents, dry humor that kept me laughing at something other than the outlandishness of the rest of the film, and genuinely good acting. Alexander Goudonov's Karl was so beautifully executed I'd be less likely to cry during his ballet interpretation of Swan Lake. Clarence Gilyard Jr's character was so amazingly undaunted by the violence throughout the entire movie that if I saw him in the street I would applaud him while repeatedly shouting 'Bravo!'. These are just a few of the amazing performances created by the villains of this film. My hat comes off to you, gentlemen. Shame the writers killed you all off in the end, but don't be discouraged. Were this not a mere movie, you'd have Willis dead in seconds.
