The Hard Hit

Truly unwatchable.

Please don't be fooled by the early rating. This is really bad and it doesn't get better. They make you enter six hundred characters to submit a review, but there is nothing else to say. There is nothing that redeems this movie. Not the script, not the acting, not the production, not the soundtrack, not costumes - literally nothing.

About the acting - the lead in this movie and the impact to the entirety of the crew that support the movie industry are two good reasons to the hate the AI clause of the proposed SAG contract.

I hope you find a better way to spend 80 minutes.

I have never in my life seen such a pathetically bad movie. Stilted,wooden, acting doesn't begin to describe the performances in this POS. It's difficult to believe that any thinking person would finance this thing. The only reason it has one star is that there is no provision for a zero, or negative numbers, which this so richly deserves. Any casting director who has the misfortune to have to watch this, and still hires anyone from this thing, should be tossed out of the profession and never work in film production again. An AI chatbot could write a better script than was used in this pathetic excuse for a movie.

I love Richard T Jones in The Rookie so I was looking forward to this. He's only in it for about 3 minutes by the way and the rest of it looks like a student movie.

The concept has been done many times before. There's nothing new here.

The acting is appalling (especially by the lead actor). To say it is wooden would be generous.

Terrible script, terrible acting, terrible soundtrack, terrible directing, terrible stunts...you get the idea.

I'll tell you what this movie reminds me of: a low budget parody of a 1980's porn movie. There's a knock at the door, a buxom blonde answers the door and says "You must be the plumber". "Yes I am the plumber". That's kind of the level of acting on display here.

Save yourself the disappointment and find something else to watch.

Don't be fooled by the 10 ratings. Obviously that was seeded by the movie team. The 1 ratings are the authentic reviews. The acting is horrendous and cheap. Most of the time, the actors have a slight smirk on their face as if trying to make themselves look tough and unafraid. Their expressions don't seem real and it reminds you that they're acting, really bad acting. The music score at times doesn't really vibe with the scenes. The fight scenes don't seem realistic. You can actually see the step by step in the choreography with the pauses. The plot sounds good but is executed poorly. The camera work looks like a school project for cinematography.

I would give this film a zero if I could. I can not think of a single redeeming thing about this film, actually yes I can the 75 minutes of run time, but even this felt more like 3 hours long. Everything about this film is bad. The plot, it almost has a very slow one which is so obvious its painful. The wooden acting is well wooden and awful in every way, the random wobble camera effect at least that makes you feel off balance so takes your mind off the film for a few seconds. The mind numbing back ground music, it's almost endless it will not just shut up and stop. All it needed to make it even worse if that is possible would have been a Steven Seagal guest appearance as a hero, actually that may have improved it just for the giggle factor.
