Yes, it has bad camera work and poor editing. Unlikeable character of Marky Mark as James Silva. But good effort from Rousey, especially Cohan as bad ass woman, go Girl.. Iko Uwais steal the movie with his calm manner, and funtastic fight coreography. Story can be better if it not deliver with too much monologue. Suprise ending, i hope the sequel can be excuted with more elegant editing, focus more to hand to hand combat and more hi-tech involvement. But for summer action movie its quite good.
... View MoreThe whole premise of the movie is based upon getting a double agent to a plane to come to America. Very action-packed and bloody/gory With lots of bone crunching involved. If you love those types of movies you will enjoy this movie. I was fine with it up until the end. Not something I would go watch again but definitely not something that was crap. My issue however comes because I like things to make sense logically. So it was at the end that Threw me off. It took me the drive home to figure out what set me off. Here's where the spoiler comes in: The double agent in fact turns into a triple agent for Russia. In essence killing everybody involved. I can live with this the only issue I have is that at the beginning of the movie that when they initially made that first bust it was because of the information this supposed double agent gave one of their agents. The feeling I got from the show was that because the secret agency went in and killed a bunch of Russians one of them being a rich ladies kid, the rich lady then hired this double agent to go in and kill the American agency. It still doesn't make sense because this double agent was the one that told them where to go to kill the Russians. Which means the kid shouldn't have died because the cop Was not hired until after the kid was killed.No way did the rich Russian woman have it all planned out and said hey you should go and kill my son. So maybe it's possible to think of some alternative reasons. They could be... A mark Wahlberg's character had a psychotic break down and either he went rogue or decided to kill everybody. Or the second situation is that another government hired the Triple agent to create all this chaos so that they could go in and kill this American agency. Regardless that's where they lost me.

... View MoreHorrible movie. I am a rabid fan of Wahlberg, but this movie was disturbingly bad. Plot was decent but execution was excrutiatingly dissappointing.
