Security (2017)

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

What did i just watched ??? i never write bad stuff but damn this was terrible movie wtf? bad acting and story at its best sry ...

Mr. Bandaras turns in a convincing turn as a tough military veteran with undisclosed post- traumatic stress issues forced to employ his combat skills against mall thugs. The villain, played by the great Ben Kingsley, is coolly evil and great in his role. While there are clearly some odd aspects to the setting and an overabundance of dufus Millennial mall cops in an out-of-the-way mall, the fight scenes are extremely well-staged and a dark humor surrounds the mall cop heroics. The actress was too wise for her years, as is common— and very irritating—in stories coming out of Hollywood these days, but over all was well- directed. A fun evening at the mall.

This film begins with a convoy of U.S. Marshals transporting a young girl by the name of "Jamie" (Katherine de la Rocha) who is the sole witness to a crime committed by a dangerous mob boss. Suddenly the convoy is ambushed on a secluded road and everybody is killed except the young girl who manages to escape and run away into the night. The scene then shifts to an Army captain named "Eddie Deacon" (Antonio Banderas) who has just gotten out of the service and is haunted by this past experiences in battle. Desperate for a job he accepts employment as a security guard at a local mall on the night shift. As luck would have it he sees a young girl banging on one of the doors to the mall and screaming to be let in. Naturally, he opens the door to see what is going on and this is when he and his fellow security guards discover that they have a problem for which they are not equipped to handle. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this was an okay action movie which pretty much covered all of the bases but didn't provide anything out of the ordinary to enhance the film in any way. That said I have rated it accordingly. Average.

Read the reviews and put it on in the background for some B movie noise... 20mins in I'm planted on the couch engaged as the story unfolds, 40mins in I'm thoroughly enjoying the action. Expectations weren't high after reading a few of the reviews but it held itself well for what it is.Some were relating it to being a "ripoff" of Die Hard and Assault on Precinct 13. Comparing it to two movies over 30 years doesn't make it not worth watching. The story is easy to figure out but wasn't really expecting too much there. The clichés were smoothly entwined amongst some nicely choreographed moves.The movie poster got me here and the action ensured I enjoyed it more than the average B movie. With a $15m budget, it felt like more than just a DTV after half way.Great to see Banderas back to form as it was cringe worthy watching him in the The Expendables 3. At 57 he's looking great and very believable for his role. Some good moves and sequences ensured he kept the bad guys (and the single Token Bad Girl) at bay long enough, despite only using handguns for most of it.Ben Kingsley also had a good turn after seeing him in some pretty average movies. Although his accent (South African to Scottish to Hannibal Lecter to something else) was quite entertaining.Watch it and enjoy!
