Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

adonis98-743-186503 For Tes and her two cohorts Kara and Dawn, the job sounded simple enough: intercept a double-cross drug shipment for their crime boss Mel at an isolated diner. But when an unstoppable chain of events unfolds, everyone soon realizes no one is who they seem and the job may be something other than eliminating the competition. What started as simple instructions has now turned into a deadly cat-and-mouse game - with large guns pointed at everyone. Catch .44 feels like a boring and bland rip-off of a Tarantino film with Bruce Willis and his wig, alot of boring dialogue inside a Dinner and above all somehow Forest Whitaker said yes to this for some reason. The action is little and the characters are also hard to like or even care for a little bit. This is the perfect example of Willis downfall. (0/10)

Jim Thriller with Pulp Fiction type of flashbacks.Three hot chicks are sent on a heist. Lot's of violence. Turns out tragically as several innocent people are killed. There is a tense three-way standoff that explodes.In the end, there is only one survivor who drives away in a daze. Replaying in her mind the events leading up to the bloodbath.Bruce Willis is the evil gang boss. As usual, Whittaker does too much talking. Very watchable Malin Akerman, Nikki Reed and Deborah Ann Woll.To be honest, the three lovely ladies are the main reason to watch this movie.

Frank Dux I have to thank and appreciate the intention OK the makers of this movie of doing films like this, but when you don't have the talent or the know-how to create this kind of pictures it's very hard to accomplish the mission and impossible to nail it. So, what we get it's a Tarantino movie wanna be. I'll start saying the main scene and "leit motiv" fails 'cause it's badly recorded, first dialog may embarrass the creator, the edition is pretty lame (no excuse about the trying of fracture action), personages without charisma, Bruce Willis don't care about his role, I don't know what for is Forest Whitaker in the movie, senseless. Only Akerman (I have seen lately some of her movies and I hope she will get a big role soon and become a top level movie star)cares about performances. Best thing: some songs and the opportunity of seeing Malin Akerman, and Debora Ann Woll (she needs bigger roles in bigger movies as well)too,

Scarecrow-88 Lame Tarantino knock-off/wannabe wastes a fine cast (Bruce Willis, Forest Whitaker, Shea Whigham) and features an excruciatingly long stand-off that goes on seemingly forever (instead of wringing as much suspense out of it as possible, the director has the three pointing guns at each other rambling on and on, resulting in tediousness). Three babes (Malin Akerman, Nikki Reed, and Deborah Ann Woll) are given the job by Mel (Willis) to rob a diner, but it doesn't go off so well. A shotgun blast takes out Reed immediately as the film opens, blood pooling from her as the credits roll, preparing you for the way the film uses bludgeoning violence for any impact at all. Not one single likable character in the whole cast: everyone's out to grab that brass ring (or in this case, a bag of drug money), and a lot are dead by film's end because of it. Akerman gets the star billing and is designed as the anti-heroine of central focus. Her girls are taken out before her eyes in a job that was ransacked by betrayal from the onset (Mel is a shady scumbag who really shouldn't have been trusted). Then comes Billy (Whigham) and his shotgun, telling Akerman's Tes to put the gun down. This is a stand-off of two that becomes three when hit-man Ronny (Whitaker) shows up in a deputy uniform. Ronny carries a torch for Tes, every since seeing her in the strip club she waitresses. Tes is a natural pickpocket and moonlights as a robber, accepting jobs from Mel, pushing drugs for him. Backwards and forwards in time, replaying the shootout that killed Tes' girls, Catch .44 desperately desires to achieve that Tarantino cool, with long dialogue scenes (like Willis telling a story about Running Bear to Whitaker, Reed and Woll sharing sister-time (each telling the other how they feel about the next job that'd kill both of them) at a gas station, Whitaker using his stolen deputy uniform and cop car for kicks when he pulls over the girls, and Akerman sharing a conversation with Willis over a job) meant to mimic a Pulp Fiction or Reservoir Dogs, failing to conjure even a glimmer of the magic that made those films so much fun. Whitaker, who can be damned riveting in the right part, is saddled with a sweaty, pathetic creep, homicidal and tired. Willis, with these spots all over his neck and face, has seen better days than this. Brad Dourif is a sheriff who just keeps running up on crime scenes. Whigham doesn't have much here other than a character that orders around and shouts at Akerman, with the intent on removing any threats that could stand in his way. Plentiful outbursts of violence, profanity-laced back-and-forth, and full of unsavory characters, Catch .44 unfortunately doesn't feature anyone that interesting, nor does it surprise. Akerman is a babe, though, and she's easy on the eyes even if her character is about (if not just as) rotten as the people she surrounds herself with.
