Absolutely amazing

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

An ex-CIA agent and his estranged daughter are forced on the run when his employers erase all records of his existence, and mark them both for termination as part of a wide-reaching international conspiracy. In terms of acting Erased stars Aaron Eckhart and Olga Kurylenko are very good and the acting in general wasn't bad. Now in terms of plot and pacing it struggles and it takes a lot of time to reach what it wants to be is it a thriller or an action movie? It's boring and feels kinda like a rehash of Taken 2 the actors as i said do a nice job but the script didn't let them accomplish what they really wanted. Overall i give Erased (2012) a 5.7/10

ERASED is your latest garden-variety Bourne knock-off which copies the plotting, style, choreography, and even the music of the Greengrass-directed Bourne movies. This one stars a rather bland Aaron Eckhart as a former CIA agent who finds himself on the run with his estranged teenage daughter when his former employers decide to get rid of him.The plot is almost an exact copy of THE BOURNE SUPREMACY in which the protagonist is framed for a crime they didn't commit and then people try to silence them throughout. There are fight scenes with assassins, shoot-outs and chases, and the action is quite fun for what is essentially a B-movie rip-off. Certainly it's hard-hitting in places and the R rating is a refreshing alternative to the usual PG-13 thrills and spills.Unfortunately, ERASED falls down when it comes to the writing. The characters are flat and certain ones, like Olga Kurylenko's (QUANTUM OF SOLACE), have zero presence whatsoever; you wonder what on earth they're doing in the film in the first place. Even worse, the main character is saddled with one of those bratty teenage offspring whose only purpose seems to be to intentionally irritate the viewer. It spoils what is otherwise a workable if derivative thriller.

Whilst the movie has a good plot.. The character of Amy (the daughter) is awful and I kept thinking she could benefit from a good old fashion spanking. This in turn made me want to stop watching it.At some point they should have written into the story where she (Amy) becomes more compliant and therefore more believable as a character in the movie.The acting itself for the character of Amy was extremely annoying and if I wasn't an Eckhard fan I would have stopped watching it.However, I must say the action sequences were quite good and Kyrelenko is always a good addition to any movie.

This movie is a typical example of the kind of spy-story crime movies, often related to the CIA, that have been so common these last years. Not a brilliant one: there's nothing really distinctive about it, nothing to be remembered after the movie is over. The bottom line is, after the Bourne movies, this sort of films desperately NEED to have something distinctive about it, otherwise they are just a bad copy of Bourne (hard to do better). Exciting and entertaining to watch? Well how exciting can it be when you're watching a thriller whose unfolding is pretty obvious from the very first 10-20 minutes? Another issue with this one is the lack of interesting characters. We don't know enough about the main character to care about him or his daughter, and some simplistic father-daughter melodrama just won't cut it.
