2047: A Sight for Death, or Death Squad as it's also known ran into trouble straight away with me. The first very early problem with this film was Danny Glover's narration. Now I like Danny Glover as an actor and thought he was fantastic in the Lethal Weapon films, but the first 5 minutes consist of him mumbling random and incoherent dialogue. Worse still, most of his narration seems to actually be used to act as a framework for the story. I actually listened to his narration at the start twice and still didn't understand all of it. This might be one of the reasons why I couldn't get involved with the film because I felt like I never really knew what was going on?? Had this been the only issue then I probably would still recommend it, but the truth is that this film is so mind-numbingly boring. Once Ryan arrives, we see him sulking around and then we witness him playing a rather dull and tedious game of cat and mouse with the mercenaries. It just seemed to lack any sort of spark or imagination and was just tiresome and predictable.The writers clearly weren't interested in providing the audience with any sort of semblance of an intelligent screenplay, which in itself isn't a bad thing if they would have at least made the film entertaining. The fact that the film is both boring and uninteresting means that they've actually created a film that isn't for 'anyone' rather than one that isn't for 'everyone'.Many of the performances reflect the overall quality of the film with Baldwin & Hannah being the worst offenders. The former is a large piece of wood, devoid of charm or charisma who certainly isn't the kind of character you'd care for or root for. The latter is just plain bad and unconvincing. Hauer fares better, but that's not saying much. Madsen was ridiculous and terrible, but at least he looked like was having fun here and this does sort of translate on-screen, but this alone is not strong enough to make it worth watching.Death Squad is an insufferable mess that lacks intelligence and is just downright boring. Even it's pathetic IMDb score of 2.5 is far too generous. It's a film that should be erased from existence.

"Stop being so..... sexy", muttered by a clearly crying-on-the-inside Rutger Hauer, is the only good thing about this movie, and mostly because it is so bizarre coupled with the fact that Mr. Hauer just want to be anywhere else, in that moment.The plot twist in the end, renders the whole movie even worse, as the mysterious red girl, is the only remotely interesting part of this movie. Her purpose and story might have moved it to a small 2 stars. Alas, it all just fell flat. Very flat.Writing, direction, editing, and acting are all atrocious. And unfortunately not bad in a fun way. Just plain bad. It seems to think it is a Pandorum, cult sci-fi, but instead it is any Uwe Boll movie, then beyond.Can not be recommended to watch, if you value your time.

"I kill every day, but I'm not a criminal. That's crazy." In the future the planet is ruled by a corrupt government. When rebel agent Sponge (Glover) sends Ryan (Baldwin) to collect evidence that will bring them down, he thinks it will be a quick stop. Things begin to change quickly and after mercenaries are dispatched no one is safe. This is a movie that is pretty much exactly what you expect. A bunch of actors past their prime trying to pull off an Expendables like movie. This is a movie that is hard to review though. In terms of plot and quality it's pretty terrible, but on the other hand when you see the cover and rent it that isn't what you care about. Pretty much if you like movies like this you are going to rent it anyway, if you don't you won't. Overall, exactly what you expect, I give this a C-.
