Karry Best movie of this year hands down!
AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks
SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped
Jerrie It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
madelinehind I don't know if I've ever seen a worse film than this. I can't remember one.The title says it all..it's just plot less, pointless violence. Given that the film opens with a main character dead on a slab we know how it will end which robs the film of any potential twists or suspense it might have had.There are no twists in the writing and the direction is pathetic. The acting is downright embarrassing. No-one involved can act. None of the characters are likable.The dialogue is awful and consists mainly of profanity. I am not easily offended and swear a lot in real life, but used constantly profanity becomes repetitive and irritating.I can't think of any reason to watch this. Don't waste your money.
simonpcpearson There is nothing good to say about this movie. It's another pointless, pitiful and deeply unpleasant movie by Darren Ward. He has been making this type of thing for years and he hasn't improved since the truly awful Sudden Fury many years ago.Its very very cheap. Production values are poor. The lighting is at times to dark to see what is going on and the sound makes it impossible to hear what is being said. However given the terrible level of acting and writing and directing involved this is probably not much of a loss.There are some positive reviews here and on other sites which can only be by people connected to the movie as no-one could possibly find this to be a 10/10 movie.Avoid.
Corpus_Vile Mitchell (Nick Rendell) is a hard man debt collector who thinks he's hit it big time when he stumbles across £100,000 while collecting a debt from addled drug dealer Hopper (Italian horror veteran Giovanni Lombardo Radice)However, it turns out that the money belongs to his new boss, gangster Curtis Boswell (victor D Thorn) who promptly sends Mitchell to find his loot. So begins a nightmare for Mitchell, who must stay one step ahead of his crime colleagues if he wants to stay alive...A Day Of Violence is nothing special trash, and I've no problem with trash per se- as long as it's entertaining, but unfortunately, it isn't. Shot on video, it has unconvincing performances from Victor Thorn as the rather well spoken crime boss, as well as clichéd hard men in black suits spouting pretty woeful dialogue. It has one or two nice gore scenes and director Darren Ward's heart is in the right place, as the film is nicely exploitative. It just isn't very good, and you won't really care what happens to the characters anyway.A Highly disappointing and mediocre film, it's probably best watched drunk, or else not watched at all, because nobody's missing anything here at all.
ratcityfilmsociety This film starts right off the bat with a hot sex scene, I feared that it might be the high point of the film. I just didn't realize how low it would go and quickly it would get there. What didn't go quickly was the horrifically graphic castration by garden shears scene that followed, which seemed to drag for some 7-10 minutes (I'm not watching it again just to time it). I watch a lot of films, this offended like few others ever have. These guys were obviously proud of the prosthetic (I hope) scrotum and testicles, which got thrown around and a featured in several close up shots. I feel scarred for life by that interminable scene. The rest of the movie? Where it wasn't predictable, it turned on preposterous premises... In the end the whole movie was that savage and pointless (in terms of story development) celebration of emasculation. Why?
