Cop vs. Killer

I don't know how I found out about this film. I did learn through listening to the director and main lead on a couple of podcasts the time it took to film and the budget involved. I was impressed.

The premise is relatable, kind of. Mistaken identity. The protagonist trying to salvage his reputation and those closest to him.

The villain was scary. He gave off a mix of Michael Myers and the Terminator.

The single shots of different places and the soundtrack are reminiscent of Halloween.

I like some of the humor and banter between some characters. I'm a little mixed on some of the other small scenes that try a little too hard to add humor.

I wish the big fight scene was longer. Hopefully, there will be a sequel.

We need film-makers like Matt Page to get the big budget films, because what he was able to pull off here was amazing. Most critics won't get it, and you can assume that all negative reviews here were based on "all film budgets being created equal," but they are not haha. Matt does a more than credible job as the hero, and not just being a robotic bad ass. Great supporting cast as well. Ready to see what he has next! I especially liked New Mexico as the backdrop. It gave it that dystopian, post-apocalyptic feel, which added a lot. If you are looking for a fun escapist film for the night, look no further!

Being a fan of Master Ken, it was great seeing Mathew Page in a serious role. Was quite impressed with the guy's acting range. The movie does not try to push any other message, it's just tells the story of man trying to clear his name and protect his family. A great action film to watch on movie night (provided your kids are old enough). It has some funny moments that brighten the darker elements and the action scenes for a low budget movie were better than I expected. Not a perfect film, but fun nonetheless. The only thing Sheriff Abrams forgot to do is restomp that groin. Might have to trade in his black belt for a pink belt.

Most of the acting as good. There were a couple of actors and actress who's line delivery was more akin to the adult film industry, but it wasn't that bad.

The biggest issue for me was the smaller stuff like sound design and VFX. Glocks don't rattle like pennies in a can. Blood doesn't move in relation to the movement of the camera and it also sticks to a shoe when it's stepped in.

The whooshing made it feel more like an '80s action flick especially during the hand to hand scenes. I'm not much of a fan of gun whooshing when presented to the target.

Regardless the movie was fun and well worth the money.

I don't write reviews often but felt compelled to write this one. I don't understand how a movie can be this bad, low budget or not. It is so bad it is almost funny, but unfortunately it is not a comedy.

The acting is horrible and the plot is ridiculous. I can't believe I paid to see this garbage. I only paid 0.26 cents thanks to some streaming credits I had built up, but honestly 0.26 was still to much. They should pay me to watch this.

I wish there was a way to get the quality movies we used to see in the 90's. Most industries get better at their craft as they gain experience but apparently this is not the case in the film industry.
