The Nest

This really reminded me of an Assault on Precinct 13 except in a warehouse. Not a bad thing. A pretty good action movie, even though I felt some confusion during the first shoot out scene at the warehouse. Decent action as well as acting for this kind of movie.

Feels like the lower-budget action movie it is because it crams in as many cheap thrills as it can - darkness, swearing, minimal locations, lots of gunfire and squibs - to get the blood pumping without having to splash out on a larger-scale action sequence. Being French, it's a refreshing change from seeing the typical American action movies, but ultimately the story is fairly soulless with no true innocent character we want to root for. Fairly forgettable.

I had to do a really big effort to see the whole thing, I even started cleaning my room while I was seeing it because I was so bored I had two options; stop watching or do something productive.

competent action with choreography direction&editing working to sell the sense you are in the midst of a very tactical series of firefights. Combatants and camera alike duck furiously to and from cover whIle both sides try to get by on the other in believable ways.down to earth, skin-of-the-teeth survival shooting. long stinking first act and the fact that the barebones of emotion isn't glossed over by glorious, jaw dropping setpieces.action is never enough to make you forget you're bored

A lot Hollywoodish, but still packs a punch. A well-made action movie.
