Starts OK, ends in disgrace

Rating: 3/10 (8 April 2010)

Without a doubt the worst movie of the year. Starts off well and you start to think of the potential this movie could of had. But about half way through you wish it would just end. I never thought a movie could be so beyond the grasp of artistic and theatrical reality. Well I was proved wrong tonight. So far fetched, even for such a genre. Don't get me wrong....there were some funny scenes and exciting action sequences, but that is all forgotten by the end. I could of understood the addition of the character Nicolas Cage plays, having lost his wife seeks bitter retribution. But the daughter, I don't know who the hell this little child is but she couldn't act if her life depended on it. No need for her character at all. The character just plane doesn't work.
Almost the entire audience felt disdain during her characters scenes. The plot had great potential. They could of produced a decent movie... The geek who has no super powers becomes a super hero only to fail and here comes Nicolas cage's character to the rescue..only to die just having attained revenge.. and that would of been a better film...well something like that anyway. Toward the end, I was only hoping the child gets a bullet to the head, just in time to see the credits start rolling. Now that would of saved this movie. A movie were the bad guy wins in such circumstances. That would of made me smile. Do yourself a favor and watch something else.
