  GO..... if you are an action fan....

  by lovestalentmoviefan

  ....or even like redemption type movies. Not an oscar nominee,no wonderfully laudable talent...just alot of grittty,quick revenge,and some thinking moments. Comprehensive plot and a couple of secondary stories too. This is not a totally predictable film either. As always,with this genre,allow for some suspension of belief and enjoy your popcorn and a movie that keeps your attention. If you don't like this type-stay away. I laugh at the criticisms that point out exactly what this type of movie is supposed to be as some kind of disappointment. I will go one more time at matinee price.

  Potential never realized.

  by Gearhart1776

  My feelings about "Faster" are very mixed! The core mechanics of this film work well. The action is gritty and realistic, and everyone performs their characters well. It unfolds much like a mystery that keeps you engaged. However the subplots completely bog this actioner down! While Billy Bob is essential to the film, his whole subplot is lengthy and slows the action majorly, but really shows what drives him. The most unnecessary part of the whole movie however, was a subplot about a hired killer sent to take out Dwayne. It involves the killer and his girlfriend. It felt like they shoved a love story down our throats when none of it was necessary at all. They took forever to try and flesh-out this killer and make him human and it just hurt the pace and cause of the film overall. The director should have kept the killer's subplot to a minimum, if keeping it at all. So all-in-all a decent film worth a viewing, but the potential was wasted by the director.

  Revenge is best served cold!

  by MovieLover131313

  It was nice to see a straight up revenge story without all the sentimental backline that these stories often have. This film was well done, better than I expected. It was very entertaining even though the story was rather straight forward. Worth seeing!!

  Real Review

  by mwalczuk1920

  Alright, I really wanted to see this movie. I saw the preview and was really excited about it. WELL the first 10 minutes were great but the story never really followed the rock. Everything seemed to revolve around other characters especially the dumb story of the person hunting the rock down. Why did we need to see the love story with the assassin? Why did we need to see him do yoga? Why did we need to see him shooting bottles with his wife? Everything should have been about Dwayne Johnson, NOT the other characters! The plot was alright but proper character development and priority should of been used. Why did they show the days listed in the film. They had no meaning! It seemed very CSI like. My review is dont go wait till it comes out on DVD!

  Story of Redemption

  by BillBrinkley

  A good movie with a good plot. The acting is excellent. The movie drags some when developing the plot line but has plenty of action for the adrenaline junkie. Billy Bob's character was not developed enough to either love him or hate him.
  In the end movie finished strong with Dwayne's character choosing the to save his own soul.

  Don't Waste your money

  by Nords

  You obviously know what you are getting into seeing a movie starring 'the Rock,' but this one is absolutely horrible. As the 'star' of the movie, the Rock has maybe 15-20 minutes of actual dialogue for the whole movie. For most of the movie, he finds and shoots the bad guys in the head without saying a word. By the way, this is after easily finds each one using a sheet of paper with their names and addresses. There is no suspense, there is no "I wonder if he will be able to find this guy" moments. I knew it would be bad and corny, but this was just terrible.

  Predictable

  by vgaltx

  I liked the movies and actors but the only downside was how it was so predictable. I love movies with a twist but not when I can figure them out even before the half point.
