i must have seen a different film!!

best movie i've ever seen.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

A low budget action b-movie extravaganza, nothing more and nothing less and it doesn't pretend like it's something more either so it works if you're in the right mind-frame and don't expect more than that.All I wanted to see was Dean Cain as the good guy going vigilante-style and kicking some bad guys asses, and that's exactly what I got.Could it have done without one or two twists? Yeah, could it have been a little tighter edited? Yeah, that too but overall a fairly entertaining movie.I'm not a wrestling fan so I have no idea who 'The Big Show' is but he was better than you're average wrestler turned actor, at least in the role he was playing which was just a big bully bad-ass with a bad attitude.I don't think he'll ever become as versatile as say 'The Rock' but hey, as far as this movie goes he did what was asked for, being the menacing bad guy.It sort of has the feel of an Asylum-movie at some times (the movie company not the institution) but if it was an Asylum-movie it would be one of the better ones at least.Yeah nothing amazing on any level but it served it's purpose.

I've not seen any of the WWE Studios films, so I don't know how much of an impact WWE has have on the film and creative license, but, I'm sure there is some. The casting and acting was great. Dean Cain was really believable. Michael Eklund as Warden Snyder really irritated the hell out of me but that's how the warden was supposed to be portrayed, so job well done.Some of the dialogue was a little too proper but the fighting scenes were well choreographed. The soundtrack was almost non-stop and silence would have helped built up tension and or shock in some of the scenes.It wasn't a perfect flick which, IMO, would have been too boring and forgettable, maybe even cliché, but, gave it a modern day "grind house" feel to the picture. I would really like to see The Soska Twins do a b/w film noir piece.

I attempted to watch this 😂 but I had to turn it off 😩🔫 exactly what I thought it would be like, badly written plot that defies all logic..looked and shot like a really bad TV movie for syfy the look and bland feel of the film makes you doubt the integrity of the directors (who aren't the greatest to start with) on top of that its another horrible offering from WWE films with the Big Show who has the personality of a puppet and It also features the lamest on screen prison riot in film. The big show murders Dean Cain's wife and to exact his revenge Dean who is a cop gets himself put in prison to take down big show. The action is one of its main faults as with any of these direct to DVD action films, it's edit is quick and choppy to make it look rugged and hardcore it looks very amateur, several of the fight scenes are exactly the same as the ones you just saw 15mins ago way to over thought and planned it's almost as if they wait to hit their mark. There isn't much of a cinematography to even brag about. A paper thin plot. Almost stock locations like a warehouse and prison that looks like the same one that gets used for every low budget TV show or film, the ending builds up to a showdown that fizzles out in Min's and looks like every other fight scene you just saw in the film..it really doesn't have a positive and nothing special about this filmI'm a member of the horror community on Instagram so there is another aspect I wanna talk about, The main problem with the film is the directors the Soska twins have achieved this rabid cult following through their shameless self promotion of themselves and these movies that they make are bad Iv'e never saw such over hyped praised directors for really bad films like dead hooker in a trunk, see no evil 2 their spot on ABC's of death two and their uncredited involvement as incestuous twins in the slaughtered vomit dolls part 2. They do not have competent skills or a style and the films are judged by them as people and not for the films, vendetta is just another UN-thrilling entry into the soska twins below mediocre catalogue....avoid it

While having distinct cast with Dean Cain and Paul Wight (Big Show) Vendetta feels terribly mundane. It follows a straightforward plot of a renegade cop who does everything he can to exact his revenge. The main problem isn't the plot itself, but how the execution falters in almost every action sequences. It just looks amateurish as punches and kicks barely land, while the choreography consists of random flailing or pushing. The poor presentation is incompatible with the gritty mood it tries to build and the film ends up running around in circle like the on-screen inmate.Mason (Dean Cain) is a detective in feud with crime mogul Victor (Paul Wight). After shoddy first act where development feels forced, Mason deliberately incarcerates himself to the same prison Victor does time. The film repeats this hardened cop gimmick too much, almost the entire movie portrays him fighting and outsmarting Victor and the corrupt warden. This get repetitive very fast as events happen with little to no build up.At some points the screenplay almost literally repeats itself by rehearsing the same scene, I even wondered whether this wasn't already done fifteen minutes ago. There's no intelligent move on Mason's part, honestly his plan relies far heavily on coincidence and the others' stupidity. Dean Cain is stuck on his Batman impression with overdose of angst while Paul Wight is just not convincing on the antagonist role aside from his large physique.The weakest link must be the lackluster cinematography, Vendetta's action is timid and feeble. Motions look awkward and editing is jittery, it resembles WWE match with fake blood. Character would swing and miss, yet his enemy would fall, in the wrong way. Gun effect is poor as well, as though they plaster flash effect with lots of strawberry jam filled prosthetic for blood substitution.None of the action looks genuine. With good presentation Vendetta could've been a decent action, but seeing it's hampered by obvious flaws, it'd be better to serve your time somewhere else.
