Prismark10 End Game certainly has a star studded cast with Cuba Gooding Jr, James Woods and Burt Reynolds. Thankfully for your eyesight Reynolds is only in for a few scenes because he looks awful with his plastic surgery and bad wig.Gooding is a secret service agent who was injured as the President was assassinated. A pushy journalist uncovers a conspiracy and people start dying. She teams up with Cuba and discover that there are CIA black ops people involved and people close to the President might have been involved in the assassination.End Game is never going to rival Three days of the Condor or The Parallax View. The writing is no great shakes, the photography looks cheap. Yet the cast actually make it watchable. Its rather a decent time waster. The film drops a few clues as it goes along and there is some nice action sequences.

namashi_1 James Woods is among the GREATEST Actors in Motion-Picture History, I can't look at Cinema minus him. And even in a passable entertainer like 'End Game', where Woods is seen in a role not worthy of his talent, Woods still comes up with Another Terrific Performance! Seriously, has Woods ever been bad? 'End Game' Synopsis: A secret Service agent and a news reporter investigate the conspiracy behind the assassination of the President.'End Game' is a passable entertainer, that offers fair entertainment. Its not remotely remarkable, but it definitely is worth a watch. This direct-to-DVD flick has an interesting premise & the execution is just fine. The Screenplay is well-paced. Andy Cheng's Direction is apt.Apart from Woods, there's Cuba Gooding, Jr. in the lead role & he seems to have acted with a lot of sincerity. On the whole, 'End Game' works till it lasts. For me, this is a James Woods film. His performance is the biggest merit here.

Comeuppance Reviews "End Game" is one of the biggest Direct-To-Video movies of the year. Like "Edison Force","The Big White", and "Grilled", it shows that any movie with a all-star cast and good premise can go DTV.The plot: The president has been assassinated. Secret Service Agent Alex Thomas (Gooding Jr.) feels responsible. He starts to fall into a deep depression. When reporter Kate Crawford (Harmon) realizes that there's a conspiracy about the killing, she enlists Thomas's help. When they start to dig deeper, The assassins start to target them and all witnesses. Can they escape? This movie was slated to have a theatrical release, so the action scenes are 100 times better than your usual Seagal\fast cut crud.The whole cast does a great job. I don't want to forget to mention James Woods and Burt Reynolds. They both put in their usual professionalism. They have a good confrontation in the beginning. The only problem with the movie is the ending, I won't spoil it, but I will say they don't stop while they're ahead.Overall, "End Game" is one of the best straight to video movies I've seen in a long while and if you like Cuba Gooding Jr. Or Woods, definitely check it out.For more insanity, please visit: comeuppancereviews.com

p-stepien Cuba Gooding Jr just hasn't had the best of script servicing after his rise to fame. Despite being an enticing personality this movie is I'm afraid not salvageable.The whole premise for the story is bordering on stupid. But it is nowhere as moronic as ultra secret service agents planting bombs to kill off an elderly lady and a homeless man. One would have thought they could come up with something at least the slightest bit subtle. But nope - big blasts and machine-gunning police cops in broad daylight is apparently very CIA slash secret agent type behaviour.The acting starts out on a real low and even Cuba looks dredge-awful... Everyone else in movie is at best unmemorable, but Angie Harmon makes a great effort at acting out of a paper bag. Unfortunately she fails miserably... but at least she tried.Nothing really good to say about this movie. It was trite, repetitive and needless, but well... it is watchable. With must count for something.
