    Made for Direct to DVD

    Bloody horrid in all aspects beginning with the predictable plot to the sub-par acting (except Laurence Fishburne). An absolute utter waste of money where the ridiculously priced theater popcorn is of more value than this movie. Someone obviously knows someone else in the right places to even get this movie to the screen. Expect to see this movie run on an endless loop on cable in the near future.

    Armored: Not so exciting

    by ForlornSky

    Unfortunately for this heist thriller, it fails to live up to it's potential, and ultimately ends up falling apart. This movie will dazzle you with it's plot, however on every other front, expecially the acting, is what weighs this movie down. Even Laurence Fishburn couldn't save this movie. The script wasn't too bad, but could of certainly been better. Older people will more than likely enjoy this over the younger crowd, although most people will find this apparent "action" movie quite boring. Armored had it's moments, but really was not an enjoyable movie. Go see the movie for yourself, but in my opinion save your money for matinee times for when tickets are cheaper, because there is the possibility you might be irritated. Armored certainly did not live up to my expectations, so I would save your money for the new releases for this coming Friday.

    Armored

    by captainbob

    Well, let's just say that none of the actors needed to actually study lines. Anyone, anyone could have taken the 'idea' and wrote the script. And no stars are 'challenged' in roles. And if I'd not purchased a large popcorn...was thinking of leaving in first 20 minutes. But then again, if you do leave, you're destined to have to watch it again on cable 'On Demand'...or worse, make the mistake of renting it! But it's a bit of fun, if illogical at times. Great ending. Good 'message' of redemption. Might be tempted to tune in when it's free on cable AFTER the first 30 minutes.

    Amored

    by SOTO

    My 7 year old son and I went to see the above movie on Sat. 12/5. We both thought it was an excellent movie. A lot of action, sad parts, funny part but overall a very serious movie. What we as family would do for another family member? The actors especially Cobbs was really great. I would not take a child that is not already in school but every parent has their own opinions on what movie they will allow their children to view.

    Yes I would recommend it.
