Back from Afghanistan and struggling: briefly; we meet Kyle Snowden [Tyrese Gibson:] he is an ex-Marine that is struggling with PTSD, he has a daughter, an ex-wife, works for Child Protection Services and on top of all that, he still has to deal with his father-in-law or ex-father-in-law and grandfather Congressman Sam Nelson [John Malkovich:] he is a quick rise in the world of politics and he owns the business [which I have completely forgotten what the names was apologies for that and other bits and pieces; it does get mentioned once.] But unknown to them all three members of this family and others are all about to have a really difficult day when these individuals come into this particular shop.

Generally speaking: character developments the storyline/script, framework and pacing; we get some exposition character developments and now and again throughout for our lead role Snowden, the storyline/script and everything else in this section is absolutely fine for a 93 minutes film; so allow me to say this once so I don't have to say it again this project is a paint by numbers project that knows what it is and it sticks to that, but as you will find out that isn't anything to do with the massive problem that this film has.

Action and comedy; they are predominately the kind of things you kind of expect in this environment, but you do have one example to talk about at the very least and is slightly comical; it is where this hench-person goes in for this attack as he is sitting in this mobility scooter; where he will feel he is in the hot seat at some point.

Comedy, Character developments and performances; for some strange reason Congressmen Nelson; on waiting to give his speech he does this very small from out of nowhere little dance; if you catch it; it is amusing and yet again with his character developments are and should have been essentially reliable versions of their character types for this type of project, but the performance levels by the vast majority go from poor to adequate and the only ones that I can say put in a noticeably good performance is Malkovich and/or Michael Jai White as Spike: he is the bodyguard/security to the congressman/this business owner.

This film receives: 2/10, this film is poor; I mean as I have already indicated one way or another; in theory this film should have been in the range of maybe 5/10 or 6/10, but broadly speaking are just that bad; it really does drag the film down a lot
