Matthew Vaughn should be in directors' jail for a while. It's his worst movie, even worse than Kingsman 2.
It's like Bulltet Train but even more boring and dull.
That was the worst film of last year for me. Genuinely awful from start to finish, didn't have a single noteworthy element to praise or enjoy.
Never seen this before, but remember it was talked about when it came out and I was still a wee lad. Given my other half's soft spot for shark movies, this one was bound to be watched at some point. Cheapo for sure, but hardly a bad effort imo.
Edit: I read about the real life events that inspired this film, one of the most frightening things I have ever read, I must say.
Before Scott Adkins, before Jason Statham, there was Gary Daniels flying the flag for blightly, as our home grown action star/martial artist.
The opening 20 minutes of Recoil is a ridiculously awesome escalation (to be fair, the rest of the film is punctuated by action set-pieces. But that opening 20 minutes really needs to be seen). What begins as a violent bank robbery, becomes a shootout on the street outside the bank, then cumulating with a car/bike chase. This is the sort of old skool action film, that can put any modern action film to shame. And it's all done in less than 100 minutes!
