How sad is this?

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

"Armed Response" started out alright, but it quickly lost its momentum and settled comfortably into something less than mediocre.The movie was plagued by a fairly pointless story. Actually, once it was revealed what was going on, then the movie went into a stale mode and just trotted onwards without any ups or downs.The characters in "Armed Response" were like cardboard cutouts, and you didn't really connect with them. With that being said, it should also be said that there was actually some fairly good acting from the cast."Armed Response" had a fairly adequate cast to perform in the movie, with Wesley Snipes, of course, being the big name to pull in the audience.This was not an extraordinary movie experience in any sense. And I can't really recommend that you spend time, money or effort of the movie, unless you are a fan of anyone in the movie.

ARMED RESPONSE is a low budget little action/horror flick notable for featuring an interesting plot and a semi-decent cast. A bunch of mercenaries are sent into an abandoned military compound to investigate the disappearance of those working inside, only to find themselves trapped within the walls by a malfunctioning computer system. They soon uncover the building's CCTV footage and find out just what happened to the missing. This film harks back to the likes of SESSION 9 in terms of setting and plot development, but has extra fight scenes and military fetishism. It's notable for featuring Wesley Snipes in a rare role since his prison term and he's as good as ever, although only featuring as part of the team. Anne Heche appears too, in case you ever wondered what happened to her career. There are some good scare scenes featured here and lots of violence for the horror crowd.

Ok. Our government creates a cyber system called the Temple, and, there are a thirteen of them distributed throughout the globe. Basically an AI without them stating as such. This AI has numerous abilities one of which is as the ultimate lie detector. Couple this with its apparent ability, never truly explained, to extract information from subjects. Complete visual and auditory information. Of course something goes wrong.One of the Temples is located in the U.S. in an abandoned, modern prison facility. The facility is guarded by a spec ops team. When things go bad the on-site team is eliminated. Enter our cast. Another spec ops team. Ok now I try to be open minded but I grow really weary of Hollywood intersecting diminutive females into the teams. See see the all the time now. So enter Anne Hesche. A very mediocre actress whom we are expected to believe is a highly trained spec ops warrior. Never mind the rest of the team dwarfs her by at least a foot and a hundred pounds, she is put forth as the team bad-ass. Not buying it at all.Plot has tons of holes bordering on incoherent. Smiles must really need cash after his jail time for tax evasion.

Something at "Site 9" interrogation center eliminates everyone there. A team lead by Wesley Snipes is tasked to find out what happened. Joining the team is Gabriel (Dave Annable) the designer of the "Temple" computer system which can also tell if you are telling the truth by examining minute changes in a person's temple. Gabriel has been able to work his way into a bottle after his son died...the lone character build up feature. Once the team gets inside, they discover the people killed in the opening clip plus an unexpected guest. They struggle against the electronics. There is action in the flashbacks as to not slow the pace until the real action takes place. The science fiction aspect enters the feature late. I would hesitate to classify it as "horror." Fairly decent action film, similar to some low budget indies. We really don't have any real clues as to what is going on until well into the story. Dialogue could have been better. BTW If a person leaves a classified government facility their access is removed from system and codes are changed. Just saying.Guide: minimal F-words, no sex or nudity
