Despite the fact that Sylvester Stallone is a household name in American cinema, there is one galling fact about his career that cannot be overlooked: Besides the "Rocky" and "Rambo" series of films, nothing else he has done has really proved to be all that captivating besides just selling a few tickets at the box office. From gratuitous action flicks (Cobra) to comedy (Oscar) and even to drama (Cop Land), Stallone never was able to re-capture that Rocky/Rambo franchise glory.With this effort, Stallone dives headfirst into the "thriller" genre and ends up with a pretty decent film that could have even been much better if not for some uneven filmmaking.Basically, the plot of "Eye See You" centers on policeman Jake Malloy (Stallone), whose wife is murdered by a brutal serial killer that Malloy had been tracking down. After a bout of deep depression and drowning his pain in the bottle, Malloy heads off to a detox clinic, where he discovers that his painful past may not quite be done with him yet.Though I by-and-large enjoyed the movie overall, my first thought upon its completion was "there's just something missing, but I can't quite put my finger on it). Was it a Saw-esque police drama about a ruthless serial killer? Kind of. An emotional tale of a man battling back from his inner demons? Sort of. A suspense-filled action romp filled with gunshots and chase scenes? Most certainly...until the characters break to talk about their feelings, detox style.Usually, that type of genre diversity is great up on the big screen, but unfortunately in this case it just didn't come together. Interestingly enough, watching the trailer for the film will lead viewers to believe that the film is about something else entirely, leading me to believe that major script/character changes hampered this production from the get-go (perhaps accounting for a straight-to-video U.S. debut).Thus, while this film won't inspire you like Rocky or satisfy your action cravings like Rambo, it is still one of Stallone's more solid efforts up on the big screen (especially in the "later years) and provides enough interesting moments to avoid boredom. Check it out...if you can find it!

Stallone plays a cop who comes undone after witnessing a brutal scene on the job. He checks into a rehab clinic that specializes in treating law enforcement officials. Soon, he finds that his fellow patients are being murdered one by one. D-Tox is easily one of Stallone's most underrated films he ever made his performance is really great especially when he started drinking and he cut his wrists and he stayed there waiting to die thinking of Mary and the score and the emotional sequences worked very well for me especially when he left her necklace in one of the trees like her spirit was finally free also the amount of horror elements and action is very well done there are some flaws but only 1 or 3 with mostly the cop killer they could find someone better for sure but i think the actor did a pretty well done job and i loved how Sly butchered him in the end. D-Tox might not be for everyone that's for sure but it's way better than just a 5.3 out of 10.

As I was watching this movie, I thought to myself, "this movie is barely worthy of a DVD release. I would never have put this in theaters."Lo and behold, I was right. If my comment doesn't tell you of the quality of the film, try watching the five American Pie movies that went straight to DVD and you'll find out after the first 10 minutes of the first one. Like Eye-see-you, they are all available on Netflix as part of there ever expanding catalog of dung.Sly slurs his lines, per usual, which is all I ever ask of him. Everyone else looks vaguely familiar but I don't remember any of their names. Here's how I'll explain this movie. I literally think I've seen it before. But its an utter mess of a movie and people die in it so quickly its hard to even keep names straight.I therefore watched it again, thinking I'd ever seen it because of how confused I was by it. It was only in the penultimate scene that I realized I had watched it before. But it was forgettable. And I'll probably watch it again someday, come to IMDb and find out I've already reviewed it. drat.

This movie, was, by no means, a masterpiece. It was a mediocre movie in a genre filled with mediocrity. But when I look through IMDb, and see movies with an equivalent rating (5.0) at the time of this writing, I'm baffled. This is far and away better than the majority of movies rated at this level.The good: It had me going. I didn't know who the killer was going to be, and I was interested all the way through.The acting was much better than expected, and likely better than most would expect. It wasn't great, but it certainly wasn't terrible either.The Bad: There was no standout moments in the script.Personally, I felt there also wasn't enough hints as to who the villain was, not enough information and misinformation available for this genre of movie.All in all, I enjoyed this movie casually. Don't go in expecting a wonderfully written or acted movie, and I think you will be pleasantly surprised. By no means, is this a 5.0 movie, in comparison to other 5.0 movies on IMDb.
