Retribution (2015)
3/10
Bad.

Warning: Spoilers
The only reason I don't give this a "1" is the cinematography, locations and the fact that a city was inconvenienced for the filming.

There was no plot beyond the dirty banker getting manipulated by a sadistic victim of fraud. That's it. The rest is badly written and awkward moments of gaffs by the writers/director who allowed things to happen which made no sense at all. The whole thing could have been resolved 30 minutes before the end by the protagonist without all the melodrama. And the protagonist, actually a bad guy, was supposed to be crafty and wily. Just not wily enough to do several obvious things that would have foiled the villain.

If you like stupid suspense films, this is right up you alley. If you like watching people who are hysterical beyond belief, this is your pick. If you like routing for criminals to get away from other criminals, go for it. I just wish I could get my two hours back.
