Review of Standoff

Standoff (I) (2016)
5/10
When a single foolish cliché spoils the whole experience.
17 June 2021
Until the middle, it was 7: The usual normal film of its genre. No particular pros or cons. Just a strong middle of interest ... but in the middle of the film I wanted to put 1 from the wildest, utter, strongest disappointment and anger. I hate with all the chakras of my soul and despise this stupid cliche in films, when a police officer acts stupidly and does not do what he has to do in strange situation. And in this film there were so many things that should have seemed very suspicious to him that talking about some kind of "I'll check it first" would be the greatest mistake from the viewer's side, and to forgive this. Even if the rest of the film would be perfect, I won't put it higher than 5.
