Review of Fire with Fire (2012) by Ana B — 23 Nov 2013

Review:

What the hell was Bruce Willis doing in this film? Anyway, the film has a pretty average revenge plot with nothing special happening throughout. It seemed like it was made for TV because its really basic and the acting was quite average. The thing that gets me is that these directors are really not taking advantage of the fact that they have these top actors. They keep on bringing out these stupid movies with terrible plots, not realising who they are working with. The ending of this movie was terrible and the white fire cracked me up. Once I knew that 50 Cent & Vinnie Jones was in this film, I knew just what to expect, so it didn't surprise me that it went straight to DVD. There isn't any twists or anything clever with the storyline and I just couldn't wait for it to end. Terrible!

Round-Up:

Like everyone else, when you see Bruce Willis I'm the cast, you just have to watch it, but this was one movie that I wish that I didn't watch. The leading actor wasn't bad in Transformers, so I won't totally put the blame on him. It is definitely the directors fault who should have known that this film was going to be a flop. It was a bit weird seeing Bruce Willis in a thriller/action movie, not getting involved in the actually nitty gritty of the movie. All he done was sit behind a desk in the police station, which made the movie even worse. It also could have done without the love story, which just made things complicated, but it wasn't the major thing wrong with the movie. I think you can tell that I wasn't that impressed.

Budget: $20million.

Worldwide Gross: $5million.

I recommend this movie to people who are into there thriller/action movies about someone who witnesses a murder and is threatened to be killed if he testifies. 2/10.
