Four writers and they still couldn't keep me awake. The struggle was real. It was 98 minutes and slow pacing of back and forth dumb endless gunfire hell, with major plot and technical issues. A Cub Scout could plan a better attack on the factory. The very little story that there was, was so cliched and insignificant, that you'll forget what the endless gun battle was for. Even the dialogue was infantile. Apparently this was filmed in 10 days... what did they do for 8 of those days? Then there's the terrible acting, mainly due to the director failing to direct their cast - as well as the entire film. Lala Kent was the only convincing actor - and she was easier on the eyes than her acting abilities, if that tells you about the rest of the cast. And why is Willis still in these garbage films anyway? It's not for the money, because there's no way he'll be increasing his 250M net worth with these type of films. Bruce, please, stop. The only redeeming qualities was the cinematography and a half-decent score for a b-grade film. It's a very generous 3/10 from me.

When someone did not login IDMB for a loooong time posting a review, you know how bad the movie is.
Love Bruce Willis and Jesse Metcalfe, they did what they could to carry the movie. But when the script is so bad, best actors magnified the stupidity level just like that sniper scope on the roof.

It is one of the lousiest movies in the world. Don't waste time even to read the title. This movie is absolutely a waste of time. the acting is horrible..the movie plot is terrible...in fact there is no plot.. the movie is like a class X student practicing to make a documentary..........If there was a minus rating I would definitely give it minus 10
A bad movie. Never should have been released. How did they get Bruce to do this?
Seriously. Extremely bad acting, (possibly the worst I have seen in a very long time), and a story line that simply wasn't. Direction basically non existent.
A bunch of drunks trying to convince a burned out light bulb to work again would be far more interesting.
A shame really, The king of popcorn movies, Bruce can make a good movie great and and a so-so flick into an extra large bucket of popcorn fun. But, this? No way.

To put it simply , the movie wasn't even worth the $1.80 rental at Redbox. As soon as I began fast-forwarding a lot to the scenes of first half of the entire movie, I realized, my $1.80 should have been just Donated to a poor homeless out in the streets.

This movie is pathetic. I have never felt the need to review a movie on IMDB, until now. That is how bad this movie is. NOBODY should watch this film. Poor story, poor acting, poor editing, poor dialog. Bruce Willis is horrible in it. He is just cashing a check and laughing at you the audience for watching this dribble.

Dont waste your time with this crap, Bruce has yet again just decided to help a friend out and star in this rubbish. The acting is terrible and so are the shootouts. The casting is useless, The dialogue is shocking. Go wash your hair instead.

Bruce Willis was the only shining light for this film. It's like it was filmed by high school kids, and managed to find $1m to hire Bruce Willis. Shockingly bad acting.

What a shame for Bruce Willis. Making garbage films for money. You can watch only if it's free, not worth any money.
Fun flick, Bruce is cherry on the top. Lots of fast action. I enjoyed it!

It's not exactly a new plot but for being low budget and shot in a single location its got an old school action charm to it. There's just enough variety to keep you watching till the final mono o mono showdown.
6/10 for me

Silly, improbable plot, ridiculous tactics and action, poor character development, stilted dialog, clumsy and impossible situations. Bruce Willis, how could you take a part in this thing?

Even a high school drama students would do better, not to be labeled sexist; the females are the worst in this movie, go and have few drama lessons or acting tips before deciding to waste our time
Plot is very stupid, both good and bad guys keep making stupid decisions. Gun fights are horrible with bad guys' aim worse than storm troopers, while good guys just spray and hit everybody. There is no strategy at all. At one point the bad guys are lost in the dark, keep swimming around randomly and yelling "you are surrounded come out" lol.

The writing and acting is so bad it's almost unwatchable. There are better shows on network television. I am not a picky viewer, I'll watch just about anything but this BAD! Don't waste your money or your time.

Movie was terrible watched the whole thing hoping Bruce may salvage the Movie at some stage, Never Happened cab only hope this isn't the standard for Bruce now from Blockbusters to Mindless B grades and calling it a B grade is a compliment.

Is Bruce short on cash?! I'll lend him some, just to keep him out of such an epic fail of a movie like this one, but I fear we'll see him doing dish detergent commercials before long.
It's about 1 hr 40 min, I made it to one hour in, and had to bail in disgust. Yippi ki yay is dead to me

A mercenary team of ex-soldiers, led by Miller (Jesse Metcalfe), gets a too good to be true fat payday to escort wealthy tech CEO Donovan Chalmers (Bruce Willis) in scoping out a new site.
It's all a ruse as they're actually intended as security to help take down a terrorist, The Pardoner (Sergio Rizzuto), from utilizing a vaguely described device that could "wipe out everything." The Pardoner has made it personal by kidnapping Chalmers' brilliant daughter.

Metcalfe tries his best to drag Hard Kill beyond B-level status. He handles the physical aspects confidentially enough. It's almost a calling card for him to do a bigger budget action flick in the future. Willis is only in a 20 minutes as expected.
Screenwriters Chris LaMont and Joe Russo stick to action movie bingo in crafting the script. The characters are thinly developed and the plot is basically the defend the castle, protect the king variety. It's predictable but fun enough.
Worth a stream for a 90 min of mayhem.

To write this review. Despite the prescence of Bruce Willis, is a sleep inducing crockpot of crap. It has no redeeming qualities. Taking a nap instead of watching this movie is a much better use of your time.
Anyway, if you read this and still watched it, you will not be able to say, "Oh my, no one told me this is a massive waste of my life."
