End of a Gun Audience Reviews

TinsHeadline Touches You
WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
Leofwine_draca END OF A GUN is another cookie cutter DTV thriller for ageing action star Steven Seagal, doubled in his fight scenes and with his orange-tinted glasses and dyed black goatee beard glued to his face as usual. This one teams the star with his go-to director Keoni Waxman for a cheaper-than-ever story that begins with Seagal rescuing a beautiful young woman from the clutches of an abuser and ends with the usual shoot-out in a warehouse. In between you get the typical abruptly-edited fight scenes, unbelievable flirting and romance between Seagal and his 20 year old beautiful love interest, and stock bad guys.
zardoz-13 Action hero Steven Seagal seems to make nothing but abominable, low-budget thrillers. Occasionally, he churns out a decent one, but nothing comparable to he did when he was slim and trim during his theatrical release days back in the 1980s and the 1990s. Since those halcyon days, he has made several potboilers with director Keoni Waxman. "End of a Gun" is their latest collaboration, and Seagal doesn't skulk around the edges on this movie. Indeed, he stars as the indestructible protagonist, a former DEA Agent named Michael Decker who got booted out of the agency for doing things his way. As this yarn unfolds, our tall, imposing hero intervenes when he spots a man mistreating his stripper girlfriend in a parking lot one evening. Like most Seagal fights, this one doesn't last long, and the arrogant Ronnie (Andrei Ciopec) makes the mistake of brandishing an automatic pistol. Predictably, Decker decks him with a minimum of shots. The Paris police confiscate Decker's favorite pistol, but his old pal Jean (Ovidiu Niculescu) doesn't arrest him. The beautiful lady, Lisa Durant (television actress Jade Ewen), that Decker rescued has an idea. She suggests Decker team up with her and the appropriate all of Ronnie's loot. The catch is that small fortune is locked up in the trunk of Ronnie's car, and the vehicle is parked in the police impound garage. Instead of taking ten percent, Decker decides to cut himself in for half of the loot. Meanwhile, Decker's chief adversary Gage (Florin Piersic Jr. of "Youth Without Youth") assembles a couple of gunmen, and they track Lisa down to the less than fashionable motel where Decker left her. The bullets fly, and Decker ices Gage's two henchmen without breaking a sweat. Nevertheless, Cage survives and manages to escape with Lisa. Gage's boss Vargas isn't pleased with his henchman's lack of progress in retrieving his money. Lisa convinces Gage to let her live so she can bargain with Decker. They set up a rendezvous to make a swap--the rest of the dough for Lisa--but she isn't fooling Decker. Decker relies on his Parisian friend to back him up. Mind you, Jean doesn't get out of all the gunfire without catching a slug for Decker. Unfortunately, all these shenanigans lack artistry, and Waxman lenses everything like the B-movie that it amounts to just to get it in the can and get on to the next picture. Waxman and co-scenarist Chuck Hustmyre generate nothing in the way of either suspense or momentum because the villains never properly challenge our hero. As the femme fatale, shapely Jade Ewen looks gorgeous, but she doesn't shed a stitch. Of course, she doesn't fool anybody either. Seagal talks a lot about honor in his gravelly voice. "End of a Gun" isn't anything to shout about, but it is better than the typical straight-to-video shoot'em up.
namashi_1 There was a time when Steven Seagal could set the box-office on fire & leave the action-movie fans to ripples. I was & still remain a fan of this man, despite his career having declined & his appearances strictly seen on direct-to-DVD films. And 'End of a Gun', his 5th film in this busy year, is a mediocre film, that doesn't even improve as it progresses. Its got a fairly decent plot, but it makes almost nothing out of it.'End of a Gun' Synopsis: A former federal agent crosses paths with a drug kingpin's enforcer after he saves a woman from danger.Keoni Waxman's Writing & Direction disappoints. Waxman has made many movies with Seagal, but this time he stumbles. Of the cast, Seagal delivers adequately. Jade Ewen looks hot & performs ordinarily. But its Ovidiu Niculescu, who's splendid as Seagal's old friend & is easily the best thing about the film.On the whole, 'End of a Gun' is a missed opportunity.
Junebug23057 Of all the former action stars (Van Damme, Lundgren, Schwarzenegger) Steven Seagal has had the most pathetic decline. While it is true that Lundgrens movies are filmed at a lower budget, at least Lundgren is in shape and is actually emotionally present in his movies.Seagal hasn't given a f*** about his movies in the past 15 years. And this one is no different. There are few fight scenes, and the few there are, are so horrible and cheap. Seagal just touches their arms and they fall down. Not even his body double does much movements this time. The shoot outs are slow and just look awkward. Seagal just mainly sits down in this movie and mumbles something about honor, the past and friendships. The movie has a weak attempt at trying to emulate a heist movie, but it fails miserably. The acting from the supporting cast is standard Romanian fare and the female lead is nothing special, and her story arc is garbage, she for no reason does a complete break of her characters logic at the end of the movie. For some reason there are scenes with a head boss talking on the phone. You never see his face, and his voice is clearly dubbed over. They never return to this character, and it makes no sense whatsoever to have him in this film.Don't waste your time with this movie
