Review of Righteous Kill (2008) by Jon B — 30 Aug 2009
Terribly predictable throughout. De Niro and Pacino both deliver very sedated performances riddled with as many F-bombs as the original Die Hard. Ok, maybe not THAT many, but these two cops are rather emo. Just plain sloppy writing and boring plot developments. Don't see this if you don't like having your intelligence questioned from the start.
I would be amazed if a 5 year old couldn't figure out the end of the film about 10 minutes into it.
I don't really recommend this to anyone. It only got this many stars because of the respect I have for De Niro and Pacino. Well, that and the fact that we get to see 50 Cent get killed. Oops! Spoiler alert! Actually not really, if you watched the movie you probably already fell asleep for that scene anyways. Don't watch this movie.
