cpanch This film is the first to be shown in a first person, and it really helped to put yourself in henry place. Some motion were to quick, and did make me feel sick, but for an action film it does that. This movie is great if you just want to see gore, action, and comedy. I would recommend this movie, but their is a feeling that this would be a great game, I can imagine myself playing this. In the end it is still and enjoyable film.

insipidio I could have done without the gratuitous nudity, but the movie mostly pushed beyond typical boundaries. A modernized Pulp Fiction - one wild ride after another.I never heard of this movie or 1st person view movies, just saw a reference to the movie somewhere down the rabbit hole of the internet this eve, so had no knowledge or expectations going into the moive. That was the best way to see this movie, maybe. I didn't get the effect of a vid game til about the hour mark, then it went full in on the game metaphor, with unrealistic kill ratios - ha. I actually had to check to see if this wasn't a real video game. I had played DOOM way way back now, the only game I ever played, not a gamer, so I had a good reference as to what the basis of the film was, after a while. However, the movie never slowed down, achieved its mark in creating disorientation through the whole movie.
NickIrv Here's the gimmick, this film is shot purely in first person view and it never breaks from it throughout. It's also an action movie so lots of shooting and crazy death moves. That's it really, you could quite easily just watch fifteen minutes of this, go "ah, clever, nice idea" and you are done. Nothing else to really keep you there.Its shot very much like a computer game, so its like watching someone else playing or watching one of those dreary walk throughs on YouTube of a computer game that you don't really like.To keep the computer game facade it's complete with fast panning, chase scenes (both in the car and on foot), quietly listening to guys on the other sides of walls and fighting 'bosses' at different stages. Like the flamethrower boss, the mansion boss or the head honcho guy who has some crazy mind moving powers.As a gamer sometimes when you play a game you think it could be film. But this film proves that yeah it could be film, but it couldn't fill ninety minutes. Twenty minutes at a push.
