Some of you are probably thinking, whoa, dude, it’s an action movie. Calm down. The hero is supposed to be just a cardboard cutout who makes people bleed. Chill out! … or something along those lines.
Here’s my retort:
When a movie merely tries to push the audience’s emotional buttons the result is bound to be less than memorable. It’s a mechanical approach to movie making. If no interesting characters that the audience can identify with are developed, the people in the cheap seats won’t care much about what happens when the good guys win. And I didn’t. It’s just too predictable.
Silencer (2018) Directed by Timothy Woodward Jr. Written by Sean Mick. Starring Danny Trejo, Johnny Messner, Robert LaSardo, Nikki Leigh, Chuck Liddell, Timothy Ortiz.
