The most mesmerizing action sequences i have ever seen


This film had some of the most striking awesomely filmed action sequences i have ever seen! I honestly do not get how people found this film Dull and boring. Also, the "gangster" protagonists ruining the film for those with such astonishingly high morals? Jesus...

Please tell me someone feels the same way about this incredible film!

Sorry, can't do it.

If you want to see great action sequences watch "Aliens" from 25 years earlier.

I think i should have said 'Action SEQUENCE' instead of 'SEQUENCES'. I'm mainly talking about the hallway chase scene, with Moses sprinting away from the aliens. That scene was mesmerizing!

Yes, there are some good visuals here; thought the fireworks made really cool weapons. I hated Moses and his mates in the beginning just as it was intended, but then they became unlikely heroes which was interesting- particularly Moses, who not only feels responsibility for protecting his block, but also realizes he was wrong to see the nurse as unworthy of respect just because he didn't know her before. This is genuine character development which is something you don't always find in an action/sci-fi/horror movie.
