I decided to watch this film because I am a huge James wan fan "saw, dead silence, Annabelle, and the conjuring the film was okay. I hate watch film that deal with mafias and gangs cause I hate them so much and it hard for me to view content like that. At least the second half of the film was good because he was getting his revenge against the evil monsters that killed his family so all in all I rate this a 6/10 cause gangs film are not my cup of tea.

I don't know why I keep coming back to this film but I love it. I watch it at least once a year. Kevin Bacon is brilliant i wish he wasn't known for EE adverts in the UK. The way he transforms in such a relatable way in this film never fails to move me. I cant believe how wrong Metacritic gets this film . If your hesitating in watching just do it.

This movie turned out to be better than expected. The story was incredible.Nick Hume, played by Kevin Bacon, had the ideal life. He was a respected member in the community. He had a sustainable career, and so did his wife Helen Hume, played by Kelly Preston. He had two sons who were scholars and athletes. He could not ask for any more.But in a tragic accident, Hume's oldest son was brutally murdered by a gang. Hume tried to stop the gang members and was not successful, but he was able to identify the murderer. But if he were to testify against the murderer in court, even if convicted, he would not have received life in prison. So Hume decides to not testify, the charges were dropped, and Hume took matters into his own hands. Hume murders his son's murderer. Little did he know that action would create a ripple effect that would escalate to the gang to now attempt to kill the rest of his family.It was intense watching Hume evolve from his good self into an evil criminal that would do what it would take to protect his family from the gang that was now after him. Every person has a dark side, and Hume expressed his incredibly loud.

The tragic death of a jock results in the indignation from his untrained but enraged paternal guardian in what could be summed up with conjuring an image of flinging blood onto your own DVD copy of Death Wish. Kevin Bacon unconvincingly turns into a human weapon after vindictively reloading firearms, a training method only known to the elite soldiers of Bosnia, who would agree that this movie doesn't do justice to just how long one must load/reload a gun to become a one man death squad. Goodman's performance was amusing, as a gangster that smells like Arby's and talks with a bite of horsey sauce. Cliché' and uncompelling, but thoroughly fun to watch with his limited screen time. Bacon supplies great moments of drama that unfortunately coincide with spotty directing and screen writing spottier than a jaguar with leprosy who habitually leaves ink pens in its pockets. All in all, a movie that could've been great, but fell short due to plot holes and, like most fast food places, simply didn't have enough real Bacon.
