Alicia I love this movie so much

VividSimon Simply Perfect

Bluebell Alcock Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

Josephina Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

jotix100 Liam Case is suffering the tragedy of losing his wife in a terrible car accident. He is a trash collection man who tries to drown his sorrows in the bottle. One day Liam happens to be close to an accident in which a young girl is trapped in an overturned car that is burning. Putting his life in danger, he rescues the girl and his action is noticed by the media.What follows is a story in which Liam decides to make himself a hero to attract the attention of a pretty bank teller, Keila. For that he has enlisted his buddy Swain, a bad choice. Unknown to Liam, Swain tells a low life, Lynch, of Liam's plan to plan a "fake" bank robbery so that he will appear to be the young woman's hero when he went after the bad guys, but the heist turns sour, derailing the original idea."Hero Wanted" is an action film in which the violence is right on the viewer's face. Brian Smrz, the director, shows an affinity to the genre. The basic problem with the film is the screenplay by Chad and Evan Law. The basic premise is far fetched and it doesn't make sense most of the time.Cuba Gooding Jr. is a likable actor, who unfortunately deserved better. Ray Liotta, who has done much better in his career, is relegated to a supporting role that also will not add anything to his resume. Jean Marsh, Norman Reedus, Kim Coates, Tommy Flannagan, Christa Campbell are seen in minor roles.

nathan-yeo Cuba GOODING JR, is the Shaquille O'NEAL of str8 2 video movies. He's a tremendous talent who's top heavy , and over-blown performance does nothing but slows things down your production.A heist film with plenty of flash-backs a-la reservoir dogs anyone? Been there done that howeva most of these films are interesting and funny like "The hard easy". This one is heavy and plodding. over-written and over-acted it takes the long way to get to a simple point. A heist film revenge film should boring you in and have you sitting at the edge of your seat. This one was like c'mon already kill somebody. Yes it had a great cast, yes it was well written, yes it had good productions but it was still a bad film. A boring film.

rlange-3 I usually like the leads and the acting wasn't too bad but the plot and scripting was too ridiculous to hold your attention too long, especially for the last 20 minutes. I just wanted it to be over.The junior bad guy just shows up in a bar and demands a meeting from one of the really tough guys. Who promptly dumps the woman he is with to listen to junior. And what is the message? That junior wants to meet the next day. Wow.So they meet the next day and after some tough talk they decide to pull a bank job based on some information from some guy that only Junior knows. Why? Because Junior insists "he knows all the security and routines". It's hard not to ask whether guys this stupid can make it out of their teens.And then after Gooding has killed a few of them, instead of just tracking him down and putting a bullet in his head they kidnap a little girl. Why make things so complicated? Apparently the only reason is to make us loathe them even more, but it comes across as another example of just too dumb to believe. A cheap ploy by a film that tries to take itself way too seriously. And we haven't even gotten to the shootout, where a guy yells stereotypic tough guy lines, then escapes the half dozen cops that are shooting at him by getting up and walking into the next room where he can take on the hero one on one. Or the reprise of the little girl. By that time I had the sound on and the video off and was reading email, waiting for the dumb thing to be over. I gave it a heartfelt 3. For Liotta and Gooding to be involved with this turkey should be an embarrassment to them both. Good grief.
