Bent

This is not a bad little crime story. However, Karl Urbans abilities are not enough to carry the movie on its own. The supporting casts acting skills are mostly not up to scratch and the movie seems to have been clearly made on a low budget.

Not the best/worse movie I have ever seen but it was ok.

Two big reasons for seeing this movie: Sofia Vergara.

She's a beautiful gummint agent, but who cares? Just look into her eyes and fall into the abyss.

Oh, and there's Karl Urban. He still has to keep his face covered to hide his complicit role in a certain space opera. But you know something? I have greatly enjoyed each and every role he's ever done.

The film showed up on late-night and I managed to catch the pre-title scene from where they approach the boat, and I had no idea who was in it. I see that the cast includes Al Pacino--- oops, rather Andy Garcia. Yeah, he was channelling Michael from GF3. "THEY KEEP DRAWING ME BACK IN!"

Every time that this genre shows up on my screen, I think "they're making all these cop flicks, how come I never hear anything about them." But, I enjoyed most of whatever humour there was, and it's got a good beat and it's easy to dance to.

Like other reviews, it's not the greatest movie but not bad either

Bent (2018) is about a former cop that was framed, lost his partner and now is seeking out revenge, while battling his inner demons to just call it quits and stay with his all time love.

It has an OK plot and I like what they did with it, but they make things way too big and never explain them enough. A conspiracy? Is it Goverment related? Is it only about rogue agents fighting over money? In the end, all that doesn't matter.

It's not an action movie. It's about seeing an investigation unfolds and it's kinda bland. There are some curveballs, but they are rather weak.

Overall, just an OK flick.
