Liam Neeson's fresh action film sparks anger within me
==============================================================================
Liam Neeson, known for his action-packed roles, has a new film available for streaming titled "Ice Road: Vengeance." Directed by Jonathan Hensleigh, who has worked on films like The Punisher and Kill the Irishman, the movie also features a star-studded cast including Bingbing Fan, Bernard Curry, Michala Banas, Mahesh Jadu, and Amber Midthunder.
However, the movie seems to fall short in delivering the action-packed sequences one might expect from a Neeson film. Despite its PG-13 rating, viewers may find the movie lacking in action during violent scenes. This is a stark contrast to films like The Ice Road, which received a rating of 2 out of 5 stars from CinemaBlend, and Heads of State, which was able to be more violent while maintaining a PG-13 rating.
Another issue that viewers might face is the confusion surrounding the fates of multiple characters. The deaths of many characters are left ambiguous, with the camera cutting away from the action or the scene entirely. This ambiguity extends to some characters who are expected to reappear despite their deaths being left unclear.
The author, who initially thought it would be fun to see Neeson's character Mike McCann again in a sequel, found it hard to get through "Ice Road: Vengeance." The movie has a habit of pulling away from the action, leading to a sense of disengagement for the audience. The ending of the movie does not necessarily set up a sequel, according to the author.
Despite the film's flaws, Neeson and Midthunder share a good chemistry in their scenes together, providing a glimmer of hope for those who enjoy their on-screen partnership.
"Ice Road: Vengeance" is currently available for streaming on Netflix. However, the author, who is a "sucker for punishment," couldn't take much of the movie and advises viewers to approach it with caution. The movie is rated PG-13 and features occasional violence.
