Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Cody One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

tareq9 I've read all the other reviews and I think some other reviewers are speaking about a different film.This movie was very comfortable to digest. All of the characters were realistically portrayed . Artistic harmony between acting and script.This movie is definitely more real and more believable than many other top rated action movies. Maybe "Traitor" (2008) has a close realistic plot. The direction was of high caliber and extremely professional which keeps the viewer engaged . All of the action went off very realistically. The twists will leave an impression, so be observant while tuning in.

agapesophy In the nation's best interest is tragic, and entertaining. manslaughter is not the same thing as first degree murder, accidents happen and beautiful woman die,which makes this movie horrible. Other than that it is rather entertaining, it is funny to see justice, the guy kills people in self defense all day long, yet it have nothing to do with justice, the guy kills someone accidentally and it have nothing to do with justice. Justice is what you make it, I think the movie shows the superficial nature of the action hero, showing nothing he does as truly meriting existence, but the fact that people allow themselves to be a part of the superficial existence where violence is required both the hero and the bad guys allow themselves to be a part of it. This action movie seems to show this intentional as some moral or ethic, it does not show the protagonist as some hero, instead just guy who has a rather meaningless violent existence conditioned by his meaningless environment to be dangerous as if he were not responsible. A type of helpless violent existence. The movie is both realistic and crude.

AgentSniff If you like your movies with boring action scenes, undeveloped and uninteresting characters, a story that could have been applied to action-hero from Arnold to Stallone to Craig to Damon and a musical score with no personality what so ever then Hamilton is the film for you.The movie opens grandly with an EXTREME closeup on Persbrandts nose. Persbrandt plays Hamilton just like he plays his famous Gunvald-character in Beck, only that this time he is more restrained. His "acting" is holding the same emotion through the entire film and hardly ever showing any emotions at all.The only interesting part of the movie goes nowhere. It involves Hamilton having a traumatic experience with his girlfriend and was more interesting than the stock-plot of the film.The villain was just your stock action villain with no personality at all. Actually, nobody in this film had a personality.The photography was terrible, the camera was shaking like the tail of a rattlesnake in every shot and I never could tell what was going on.Just plain bad.

stensson When this novel came in the 80s, the Russian communists were the bad guys. Now, it's an American private army, with good CIA connections, being lead from Houston. Through terrorist attacks, they want to provoke a war between Ethiopia and Somalia. Which is good for business.The films about Commander Hamilton are always comical. It doesn't become less so, from the fact that the actor playing the main character is almost 50, which doesn't prevent him from being the winner in many close combat fights.As usual in these sort of movies, the intelligence service and the politicians are bad parodies on everything. Entertaining yes, but in the wrong way.
