"Fortress" is a movie that will bore you to death. No really, I do not understand what Bruce is doing here. After watching his previous flops ("Survive the game", "Apex", "Hard Kill" etc.) Too many bad movies to write down here. Bruce Willis has had a rewarding career as a butt-kicking action star from his days in the 'Die-Hard' Franchise. However, as age catches up with him, he can't quite move the way he used to, and he seems to be losing his flair as the projects he has been landing latest aren't the Box office kind of titles. All his latest movies are not worth watching. I try to understand but it seems that he lost his appetite for acting. Is he trying to set the world record for acting bad in every new movie featuring Bruce? I don´t get it. This was only part one, so two more to come as it is apparently a Trilogy. Aren´t we lucky? But just maybe part 2 and 3 will be so good that we forget all the recent films with Bruce. Also when he speaks, he lost his tonality. We have to wait 66 minutes before we hear Bruce with his acting voice. But by then the movie is over. The combat scenes with the sexy girls are ridiculous but sometimes fun to watch. The storyline is better than his recent movies, not his acting. For me there was one surprise. Outstanding acting from Michael Sirow, who plays Ken Blain. One of the US Special forces who is befriended with Robert (Bruce Willis). Michael Sirow also plays in "Survive the game", just like Chad Michael Murray (Balzary). The only difference is that Michael has something extra to give to the audience. Chad´s acting is consistent, meaning he cannot act better given the cast and the plot / storyline to work with. Overall a 4/10 which is twice as high as I rated Bruce his last movies. If you are a Bruce Willis fan, you might enjoy this movie. But if you are a "Die Hard" fan, you will not. No punch lines, no funny quotes, nothing but emptiness.
