Title: Genuinely Awful
Product review: I usually only review things I like. But there's something really crazy here, because Scott Glenn is a fine actor and somehow or other he has gotten involved in the kind of film almost never cast with stars. I don't know anything about the authenticity of the storyline, based on real life. But the script is the worst I've encountered in a very long time, basically a compendium of B-movie cliches thrown at you one after the other, plot holes filled by voiceover narration, etc. If you're a movie buff, you can recognize bits inspired by other films. And yet all this use of successful predecessors doesn't combine into a successful narration. It's all helter-skelter, like "Now let's do this bit" or "Hey, maybe he should shoot up that car. Why? It'll be exciting." The movie isn't boring, by the way. It just doesn't make any sense.
