So, I want to let you all know about 2 suprisingly good movies that you may have never heard of being released to video tomorrow.
First, is “12 Rounds”. Starring John Cena (professional wrestler), it’s suprisingly good. I wasn’t expecting anything spectacular, and I actually thought it was going to suck, so I wasn’t set up to be dissapointed if it blew. Basically, Danny (John Cena) is a cop, who accidentally gets a criminal’s girlfriend dead. One year later, the criminal wants revenge. So, he has 12 Rounds of challenges for Danny to pass, and if he does, he lives. whooooooo
The action is pretty good, script is pretty good, acting is pretty good. For a movie I hadn’t heard of, it was a pleasing suprise.
The second, is “The Betrayed”. It moslty stars Melissa George (Sadie from Grey’s Anatomy) as a woman who is kidnapped along with her son because her husband is suspected of stealing millions of dollars from a crime boss. The result is a woman who realizes that she doesn’t know who she married, and has to find clues to the money or she and her son die. It’s a psychological drama that will keep you wondering and suprise you atleast twice. It’s really not that bad of a movie.
Neither one of these movies got very good reviews, and if it’s because they were lower budget and didn’t have REAL Hollywood stars in them, then it wasn’t a very good reason. Both movies were not bad at all. I’ll give them both a 6. So, if you’re looking for a new movie this Tuesday, these 2 are good ones to get. They’re a little off the radar, but sometimes, the best discoveries are the ones you didn’t think you’d make.
