subxerogravity's Review of The Firing Squad - IMDb User-submitted review of "The Firing Squad"
6/10
Possibly a good story in a badly made movie.
5 August 2024
So, I'm not sure how much money Cuba Gooding Jr. Makes these days, but I feel like this whole movie's budget went to getting him to do 10mins of screen time.

As much as I hate to say this to such a positive story, I do feel like the storytelling was so bad that you could not help but to see the mistakes made in production. Thank God the sound was good i hate it when sound is off, but I could not help laughing at the bad visual effects use to make this movie at times when the film was supposed to be dramatic.

I will say they got their money's worth with Gooding. He's an actor who can hold his own and you can see that with him delivering the simplest lines in this flick.

Doesn't hurt that almost everyone else seemed incapable of doing this. Drama can be hard; this movie proves that.

The production quality of this movie though really through me off man. The nasty jail cell was a good concept, but it was a little too obvious this film was done in one place. There was a time in which Indonisea would be a cheap place to film a movie but that tells you something about the money they were working with that they could not afford to do it in Jakarta.

I cannot say that I wasted my time watching this film but i can't recommend because the cheap quality of production took me out of it.
