Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

Powerful

A different way of telling a story

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

In order to save his kidnapped daughter, an ex-Marine is forced to take on a gang of killers when an accident leaves the brother of a malicious criminal dead. Wrong Side of Town is not the film that you expected it was going to be or even a memorable plus Stormy Daniels is even in it for some reason. Rob Van Damme tries a bit too hard and Bautista was hardly in it so don't really waste your good money and time with this one. If you wanna see a good film with Bautista in it go and watch him as Drax in GOTG Vol. 1 and 2 but also in Infinity War. (0/10)

In one word for this film it is 'classless". Poor acting all the way throughout, mediocre action sequences, and to much of an original plot.If you find yourself extremely bored and with absolutely nothing to do then watch this.Too many wrestlers who want to be actors nowadays and this film does nothing for the acting of Rob Van Dam or Dave Bautista.Less than thrilling in it's sequence of movement. The only thing I found interesting in this film was the cars and bikes. I have come to the conclusion with the Rock being the exception to the rule is that wrestlers need not go into acting.

In Wrong Side of Town (a film that deserves some kind of award for having the most bogus and misleading DVD artwork in recent memory) ex-WWE wrestler Rob Van Dam plays a family man who gets in hot water with a vengeful crime boss, and has to battle his way out of it. Luckily, Van Dam's character happens to be an former Navy SEAL... Look, this film is terrible. I mean, truly awful. For a start, the DVD cover features prominently WWE big gun David 'Batista' Bautista, but as Van Dam's old Navy buddy, he only turns up in a couple of scenes, and majestically unconvincing ones they are at that. Mind you, even Bautista has more screen presence and charisma that the woeful RVD, who, in terms of acting ability, makes his nearly-namesake Jean-Claude Van Damme (Van Dam originally adopted the ring name because he vaguely resembles the 'Muscles from Brussels') look like Robert Mitchum by comparison. Featuring a shockingly amateurish script, softly-softly fight scenes that just don't cut it, and lots of appalling acting (even from the non-wrestlers), this film sucks on every level. It's the kind of film in which a man can get shot in the leg, only for the police to send him home in a taxi rather than ordering him to hospital. It's the kind of film in which the leading man arms himself with lots of guns and knives, and dresses in black for the final showdown with the villains, and slips on his sunglasses...even though it's the middle of the night. It's the kind of film in which, after beating up a load of street trash, one ex-military tough guy says to another 'Just like old times...' It's also full of odd gambits that left me scratching my head, like the bizarre James Bond-inspired opening credits, a lingering shot of topless adult film star Stormy Daniels, and rapper Ja Rule turning up in a cameo part that should have led him to fire his agent; any day-player could have took the small role of the generic dirtbag 'gangsta' he plays here. Even in the largely worthless pantheon of dodgy genre pics that attempt to showcase wrestling stars in the lead roles, Wrong Side of Town hits a new low. Avoid, and then some.

This is the cheesiest action film ever made. The actors are the very worst, and the whole story is too predictable. The music is way too hard rock too, the film director got stuck in the 1980's. The whole thing is a joke, the fighting is so fake. The same thing applies to all the emotions, the characters get angry and the wrong time, shout at the wrong time... Normally I like predictable Hollywood films, but this crosses the line... by about a mile. The 'hero' is supposed to be this old navy seal, but all he looks like is a old truck driver. You'll get bored before the action is supposed to even begin. Definitely not a keeper, not even worth watching. They'd have to pay me to look at it again. It's just ridiculously bad.
