I love this movie so much

Why so much hype?

Simply A Masterpiece

There are women in the film, but none has anything you could call a personality.

I do not like dishing out negative feedback in these reviews but I find it very difficult in all truth to find good points about this film which is sad and disappointing in many aspects due to the plot line.Now, moving on about the plot line. On Netflix, it's short description quotes "Posing as a telecom salesman at a business conference, a CIA agent fights to protect a fledgling Eastern European democracy from a military coup." and, on IMDb it says, "An attack on the new President of a fledgling Eastern European democracy pits an American covert operative against the country's ruthless military leader determined to seize control of the government." This plot line and description to me anyway came across as interesting so, I gave it a watch… Intently for the full duration (1h 26min) and I was let-down by how it felt like the entire film was centred around a block of flats almost considering it was supposed to be as expected about a full-on military coup! Also, I found that there cast including Tom Hopper, Amy Huberman and Nick Dunning as well as many other actors didn't exactly play their roles well and to the best that could have possibly been if there was perhaps a different cast but there you are.The potential of the idea that is behind this movie could have seriously been great but I purely believe that it just fell into the wrong hands in terms of producers and directors… Steven Palmer Peterson however, the Writer… Well done because I think that this could have really been successful and been a box office hit, if it fell into the right hands.Therefore, I hereby justify that I rate this film, Kill Ratio (2016), directed by Paul Tanter and produced by the following production companies; Benattar/Thomas Productions, Parkside Pictures, Tadross Media Group and Fixer Film Productions as a 3 out of a possible 10.My rating is justified due to the lack of action, the over-exaggerated plot line/description and down to just how the idea has been handled because, as previously stated the potential for this idea and film could have been on a seriously big scale, massive in fact and the misfortune of having the listed production companies above take on this project/production.

camera-work and sound OK. Character buildup - zero. Sound effects in fight scenes - exaggerated.big plus: gratuitous nudity.heavy on the stereotypes - rude Russian generals, Hero American cold-blooded CIA, emotional eastern European women.and why are these people speaking English 90% of the time but sometimes they do speak whatever the hell their language is supposed to be?

The last word that comes to mind while watching this movie is "intelligent" since nothing about the movie - and most especially nothing about the actions of any of the characters in this movie - make any sense at all.First of all, the acting is bad, and the lead actor is just plain brutal. He belongs in local dinner theatre in some hick town in Iowa, not the movies. He's tall and has muscles though which is enough to get him cast in this dreck.There are literally too many problems to count. Virtually every action the lead (a highly trained covert operative CIA agent type with a license to kill) takes, and every other character too for that matter, is just plain idiotic.They have phones but can't just call for help? Or call the media? - The deposed president and the evil general and his soldiers all speak... English? Even to each other? And when she addresses her country? Why??? - He won't shoot the bad guy in his room because the noise will attract more bad guys, so he fights him... but then tries to shoot him like 10 seconds later anyway? - He kills a soldier in his room, chases the bad guy down the hall and dives head first down the laundry chute after him - they basically crawl out of the chute at the bottom (pretty sure laundry chutes go straight down and they'd be injured/dead), continue to fight, he knocks the bad guy out and then... just leaves him tied up on the laundry room floor? So any of his men will find and free him (which happens), even though based on the body there he knows bad guys come in there? He already killed the other bad guy, why not kill this guy too? So stupid. - The girl he slept with then literally threw out of his room, dumping her stuff on the floor, is killed (predictably) and he can't even bother to close her eyes? He just leaves her dumped in the laundry basket and puts dirty laundry back in her face? Unintentionally hilarious - but still just plain stupid. This "hero" is a huge knob. "I'm sorry." No. No you're not, knob. - Apparently the decorative medieval swords coat of arms in the hotel lobby is... actual, sharpened swords that anyone can pull out at any time and fight with? Really? - The general kills the bellhop in a sword fight (that alone is stupid) to prove a point or something, but miraculously the guy's head has not really been cut off, there is zero blood on him, the general or the floor, and none even on the sword? - When people are shot the CGI blood is just ridiculously bad. Like, made with whatever free editing software comes with a Mac bad. - I guess the first boring sword fight was so great they decided they had to have another one, but when he gives the general the sword why doesn't he just stab/kill the president since she is still the only person standing in his way? - The president goes on live TV (again - if she only needs to prove she's alive couldn't she have used one of the THREE phones they had to just call a radio/TV/newspaper and be done with it?) and says "hey I'm alive and the general is taking over the country" then the hotel workers all say "hey she's alive, so you soldiers aren't soldiers you're CRIMINALS!" and then pick up brooms and mops and arrest the soldiers. Laugh out loud stupid. First, they already know the soldiers are criminals, they're wearing masks and holding them hostage and killing their friends (one beheaded with a sword for no reason)... second, why do the soldiers just say "ok, we give up, come take our guns" instead of just shooting them, when they've already killed and raped other people? Complete nonsense. - When the bad guys are conducting a floor to floor search, why put the dead body is a laundry cart and try to move and hide it? Just dump it down the chute or put it in a random room or toss it out the window or just MOVE TO A DIFFERENT ROOM. - The title "Kill Ratio" doesn't even make sense... he has an "unlimited kill ratio?" Really? What does that even mean? Is it supposed to be like an unlimited kill LIMIT, because that would at least make logical sense. Also, he doesn't really even kill that many guys. - There's about a million more things but I'm tired of thinking about this awful film.It sounds like it's "so bad it's funny" but really it's not even good for that. If you want to laugh at a bad action film check out any of the newer Seagal movies, "Kill Ratio" is just plain awful.

"Kill ratio" is an American movie from 2016 and this one here is really very very new at this point. It runs for slightly under 90 minutes and was directed by Paul Tanter and written by Steven Palmer Peterson and time will tell if it becomes one of their most known works. The lead actor is Tom Hopper and I cannot say I am familiar with him or with any of the other actors in here, but I guess he is physically fine for the part and also his performance is pretty decent overall. Nothing too great or deep, but he works the part, which is a solid achievement as he is in almost every scene of the film. And same can be said about the film overall. You should not check this one out if you are looking for great depth or meaningful character development, but it has some guilty pleasure potential and people who like film's à la Liam Neeson's "Taken" can have a pretty solid time with this one I guess. It is the story of a contractor who is in a foreign country at the very time a military coup happens. And as an unstoppable one man army, he makes his way helping to finish the bad guys and bring the former president back to power while getting rid of the radical military leader. It's all pretty generic and stereotypical really and also predictable, also with the hot women (moaning all the times because of how much they suffer, I am sure this was not meant the way it sounded haha) surrounding our hero, but sometimes films like these can be really solid too if you are in the mood. Like I said, don't go into this one with too high expectations and you can spend a fairly enjoyable 85 minutes I am sure. That's why my overall verdict on this film is a thumbs-up. I recommend checking it out.
