Les Condamnés

Valorisation de la débilité cinématographique. Ce qui critique d'un côté, submerge le spectateur de manière masturbatoire. Des films comme celui-ci salissent le nom de l'industrie cinématographique hollywoodienne dans le monde entier. J'avais une meilleure opinion de Vinnie Jones. Seuls les désespérés acceptent un rôle comme celui-ci. (02/01/2008)

This could have been a perfect instant package of tasty B-movie that would have combined themes from Battle Royale and Undisputed... that is if it wasn't a) so blatantly "correct" (an honorable FBI agent, the twisted past of the main character, the blonde girlfriend), b) didn’t have full the contact fights so chaotically shot and edited, and c) wasn't so incredibly long. Beyond that, Steve Austin has decent charisma for an ex-wrestler, unlike the handsome John The Marine Cena, and Vinnie Jones scores full marks as the British representative of the tough guys. A good film worth a single watch that will come in handy for a Sunday evening after a busy week. (18/11/2007)

Entertaining and quite attractive for fans. Unfortunately, the action is slightly weak (bad editing). I think it would be hard to make it more imaginative, so within the genre, it is a solid average. With more organized action, fewer tears, and happy endings, it could have made it a solid hardcore fan-friendly carnage, but it's somewhere halfway. Steve Austin is pretty cool, though, that cannot be denied. (30/10/2010)

Still, I do think that it's a bit stretched out, but this is a film where Steve Austin and Vinnie Jones act really well, these are simply roles that are meant for them. You can watch them and it's not dumb. Although I missed it being a little more explicit and rough in some scenes, because those boundaries are visible, but this is just an interesting story that will always entertain in any execution. Well, probably... (09/11/2015)
