Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.
Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
View MoreThe plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

If you like Jamie Foxx,(Alvin Sanders),"Date From Hell",'01, you will love his acting as a guy who never gets an even break in life and winds up messing around with Shrimp, (Jumbo Size) and at the same time lots of gold bars. Alvin Sanders has plenty of FBI eyes watching him and winds up getting hit by a brick in the jaw, and David Morse,(Edgar Clenteen), "Hack" '02 TV Series, decides to zero in on poor Alvin and use him as a so called Fish Hook to attract the criminals. There is lots of laughs, drama, cold blood killings and excellent film locations and plenty of expensive cars being sent to the Junk Yard. Jamie Foxx and David Morse were outstanding actors in this film and it was great entertainment through out the entire picture.
View MoreNow, some people say this is just your standard genuine popcorn movie- and they're right. There is no big surprise, no overly brilliant acting, no twisted story, no well known producer (you all know who I'm talking about..)..But it's a very well made, nice to see movie. Acting is good. Or better, it's like it should be in any movie. Photography seems sometimes a little bit careless, but it's OK- it does the trick. Directing is well done.To get to this conclusion, I compared that flick to Last Boy Scout, because it's basically almost the same background. And I have to say: while LBS is supported by the acting of Bruce Willis, this movie is founded on the acting of each actor. They all do well, the evil guy is convincingly evil (flat character maybe, but hey- it's a popcorn flick, don't forget!), the effects are pleasing, the story is neat, and the director does his best to put all of this on the screen so you can enjoy the picture.What do you want more? A bag of popcorn.
View MoreThe film was.. decent. It's Enemy of The State meets Seven, basically. A lot of high tech gov't gadgets.. Think of it as Kevin Spacey'scharacter in Seven, with Gene Hackman's NSA knowledge from Enemy of the State..Hutchison did an excellent job imitating Spacey's John Doe character.. right down to the expressions & movements.. I wonder how many times he had to watch that movie, to get it just right..It's too bad he didn't bring something original to the character though.. If I wanted to watch Seven.. Id watch Seven.Jamie Foxx was hilarious though.. he needs to do MORE films.. he's someone you could never tire of..David Morse also did a great job.. he plays a dick, just as well as a good guy.. we need to see more of him in movies too.The movie itself.. kinda drawn out, but tolerable.
View More"Bait" is the type of film that makes you say "Wow!!!! I enjoyed this film.There are several things I enjoyed about "Bait." The first thing was the villainous character played by Doug Hutchison. His character is played with excellence and brilliance.The second thing I enjoyed was the fact that the script seemed to be so unique in what was being played out on screen. When I watch movies I look for originality and I found this with "Bait." Finally, I enjoyed how "Bait" never let up from the beginning to the end. Also, each cast member brings something special to "Bait," which makes it much more dramatic and funny film. "Bait" is a film that will appeal to everyone who enjoys dramatic scenes as well as comedic scenes.
