Rijndri Load of rubbish!!

Borserie it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.

Cooktopi The acting in this movie is really good.

Ariella Broughton It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

Floated2 First Kill appears to be a straight to video drama thriller starring Hayden Christensen and Bruce Willis. The film isn't quite good as it is quite bland, with typical acting and nothing in which truly stands out. Some thrills here and there but overall nothing in which hwe have not seen before. A lot of camera zooming in with its close ups which was noticeable. The plot is okay but things become unrealistic. First off, Hayden and his son witness a near murder, then decide to bring in the victim into their home o take care of him and help his wife to heal him, and once it occurs, the victim suddenly becomes rogue and targets them, eventually hostage the son.This is another film where Bruce Willis is quite sleep walking through the film which was also noticeable, as his acting wasn't much up to par. The trailer originally saw when this film came out made it quite intriguing but of course trailers tend to do that. Overall, First Kill is only a quite decent thriller but doesn't offer anything new. As it shows how far both star actors Hayden Christensen and Bruce Willis have fallen off.

shakyavivek Just awful. I watched the entire movie just so I could hate on it. If you want to watch a cringe-worthy movie, this is definitely it.

kowmungcamel More plot holes than a Swiss cheese target at a shotgun convention. I know we are supposed to suspend our logic when it comes to movie plots but please don't treat us like total idiots. The premise of 'First Kill' is plausible enough. Wall street dad takes his paternally neglected and bullied son on a hunting trip to spend time, pass on some fatherly wisdom and make a man of his 11 year old boy. Unfortunately as we get to know the characters they just don't work. Dany who is the bullied young boy in the story comes across as the sort of kid who would be terrified on the teacups ride at Disneyland let alone about to go out in the woods to kill a huge mammal with a large hunting rifle. Ty Sheldon who plays Danny does a great job in his role but is just not believable. His father Will (Hayden Christensen) is equally uncomfortable in his role. Will takes Danny to his childhood home territory to show Danny where he grew up and how to use his father's hunting rifle. Danny is not at all into this and not particularly good at it either. Off they go into the woods against the wishes of Danny's mother Laura (Megan Leonard) Blah Blah When the action starts things just get a whole lot worse. The story tries to twist and turn but instead trips then stumbles then just falls flat on it's totally clichéd face. Characters are shot at point blank range only to pass out from blood loss then miraculously recover in minutes to be perfectly fine. Blah Blah Enter Bruce Willis, perhaps Bruce can save this confused abomination... Nope, unfortunately at best Bruce appears to be bored and totally disinterested in his character, the script the plot...Blah blah Bruce, Just another B Grade cameo kinda..Blah..as a bad cop. Perhaps Bruce really should let someone who may be a little more committed have a go at this role. It wouldn't have helped the movie but as an actor many of us have very much enjoyed watching over many years it just doesn't sit well. For those of us who consider themselves Bruce Wills fans it's very disappointing. Give it a wide berth.

TdSmth5 Somebody breaks into someplace presumably for a black bag. Some Wall Street big shot (oh yeah, we're all going to root for this guy) who looks like he's 16 is told that his son is being bullied, so he takes the family on a trip out to the small town he's from.Then he takes his son hunting, because, uh, killing an animal is going to make a man of him? Well, they end up witnessing two guys arguing, one of them tosses a key, then the other guy shoots him. When the shooter sees the kid running around he turns to shot him so Wall Street shoots the guy. Turns out he is a cop. No matter, Wall Street decides to take the other guy, who's only injured, back to his place so the wife can heal him. Huh? Yeah. The guy does recover and takes the kid hostage back to his place. There he bonds with the kid. Wall Street in the meantime has to come up with stories for the cops. Then he finds the key and goes to the hostage-takers place where the main cop finds him. Now both go to the place where the exchange will take place--the black bag for the kid. And there everything will be resolved after a couple of surprises.I can't even get myself to write a summary of this mess of a movie, which was almost painful to watch. We are asked to put up with so much nonsense and ridiculous stuff. This movie is complete amateur-hour but with a budget. Sure, somewhere there was an idea. But the writer's lack of experience comes across very quickly. This movie seems to be one of those that underwent countless re-writes by different people struggling for control--except it isn't one of those movies. I appreciated the fact that a coupe of the Southern characters weren't actually the really bad guys here, for a change. But I didn't appreciate this habit they have in movies of not naming the male young characters. As always the dad calls his son "kiddo," "kid," buddy" but never by his name. Who in the last 70 years talks like that to his son? Direction, too, is a mess. And don't be fooled by that action-movie marketing. It really isn't. It's more of a drama thriller. And a poor one at that.
