12 Rounds -- Action Movie Review

The movie itself was a good movie. If you are wanting to see a good old fashion action movie then this is the one for you. If you saw Die Hard and Speed put them together and you get this movie.

John Cena is a decent actor and this movie is a good one for him. He doesn't show off his physique and that helps give him some credibility other than just a wrestler. The biggest problem of the film is the camera work. I think the camera work is horrible. If you saw the Condemned with Steve Austin there were several parts in that movie that the camera work was horrible.

That is the only drawback to this movie. The camera work at times almost makes you sick because it is moving so fast and it is hard to make sense of what is going on.

But the acting I think is fine and the story plot is enjoyable. Just don't go into the movie expecting a movie with a deep plot. It is a good old fashioned action movie with an excellent actor as the villan who is always one step ahead.
