A cathartic revenge drama well starred by Josh Duhamel that delivers vicarious thrills for anyone . Thrilling and violent action movie in which a fireman named Jeremy Coleman (Josh Duhamel) Duhamel seeks vengeance when himself and his girlfriend Talia Durham (Rosario Dawson) are threatened by some ruthless hoodlums . As the off-duty firefighter witnesses a murder committed by a gang of gangsters led by David Hagan (Vincent D'Onofrio) . Then the man enters the witness protection program, under the watch of the U. S. Marshals (Bruce Willis , Bonnie Somerville) . When his new identity becomes compromised Jeremy is forced to take an unexpected course of action in order to get his life back and save the lives of those he loves. But he cannot hide his identity for a long time and decides to act on his own. Revenge has its own set of rules !.
A nail-biting story of defense , vengeance & retribution, it is a sort of reboot from ¨Death Wish¨ based on a novel written by Brian Garfield containing suspense , noisy action-packed , intrigue , thrills , shootouts , and loads of violence . Dealing with a fireman who takes an unexpected course of action when a man whom he's been ordered to testify against, after being held up at a local convenience store, threatens him. Moved by self defense , burning for revenge , hunts for his ruthless enemies , as he decides to fight back against the rising tide of crime, one can't help but feel a sense of empowerment, making the film a whole lot of fun , though, at times , it looks increasingly passsionless and mechanical . Outside of the moral questions that it throws up, the film packs a searingly brilliant turn from Josh Duhamel , a tough, two-fisted fireman without a past and reduced to being vigilante on account of a society that can't protect the honest . Some critics positively hate the picture , calling it irresponsible for advocating vigilantism , apparently it's a dirty picture calling on unlimited punishment to the criminals who stalk the cities across the globe . Josh Duhamel displaying a fine acting shows efficiently his weapons similar to ¨Charles Bronson's Death wish¨ and the reboot ¨Bruce Willis' Death Wish¨ while killing mercilessly nasties . It's certainly thrilling , though the morality may be questionable , even in this time, as the spectators were clearly on the Duhamel's side . It is strangely compelling and taps into some really violent scenes. Furthermore , here appears a nice secondary cast with plenty of familiar faces , such as : Bruce Willis , Vincent D'Onofrio , 50 Cent as Curtis Jackson who produced as well , Julian McMahon, Vinnie Jones , Arie Verveen, Eric Winter, Bonnie Somerville, Richard Schiff , James Lesure who appeared together Josh Duhamel on the television series Las Vegas (2003) , Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson , Kevin Dunn, among others .
It packs a suspenseful and thrilling musical score composed, orchestrated and performed by Trevor Morris. As well as atmospheric and colorful cinematography by cameraman Christopher Probst , shot in New Orleans, Louisiana and Long Beach, California, USA . The motion picture financed by 7 separate production companies was professionally directed by David Barrett , though released straight to DVD/Blu-ray. Barrett is a notorious writer/filmmaker , an expert on action movies who has directed a lot of of episodes of notorious TV series , these are the following ones : Blue Bloods, Fear the Walking Dead , American Gothic , Star Trek: Discovery, Under hhe Dome , Rush , Arrow , Mentalis , Supah Ninjas , Human Target , True lies, Supernatural, Once upon a time, CSI: NY , Navy CSI , Vampire Diaries, Melrose Place , Castle , V, Nikita and several others. Rating : 6/10 . Acceptable and passable action thriller.
