 Feels like a movie from the 90's October 11, 2009

Its old news plain & simple. John Cena cant act or sing. This movie is horrible.
 A first round knockout September 23, 2009
Jonnathan Ritland (Marysville, WA)
Finished watching "12 Rounds" a Fox Atomic/WWE Studios production. It's a simple minded, bare bones action flick starring current WWE superstar John Cena as Detective Danny Fisher, who in the beginning of the film is pursuing a brutal terroist with a constant slipping Canadian accent named Miles Jackson (Aidan Gillen). In the first 20 mins of the film Fisher pursues Jackson and Jackson's girlfirend (his incredibly hot girlfriend I might add) gets killed in an accident that he blames Fisher for.
One year later Fisher has a good life with his girlfriend Molly (Ashley Scott, T.V.'s Birds of Prey, "The Rundown") but all that changes when Jackson kidnaps Molly and forces him to play a game called 12 Rounds (gasp just like the title) where he must complete each task Jackson puts in front of him within the time limit (Die Hard with a Vengeance anyone?). If Fisher wins he gets Molly back but if he loses then she dies.
The movie becomes one action sequence after another each one more elaborate and more ridiculous than the other. Like having to speed through a crowded New Orleans in a fire truck within 7 mins to disarm a bomb or stopping a streetcar with no brakes.
The writing is basic and of course atrocious, and the acting is well about what you expect from a no nonsense action flick. The action is fast and furious, and at times fun, but it feels all too familiar.
12 Rounds is a step above Cena's first film "The Marine" but that still only makes it a passable film at best and the conclusion of the movie is so silly as they try to tie everything together for a predictable explaination. 2 out of 4 stars.
 "Speed 3"? Same idea, different story September 23, 2009
Jim Gateley (Sunnyvale, CA)
An action-suspense movie similiar to Speed (or Speed 2). A police detective is the target of a nutcase he had busted years earlier. The nutcase kidnaps the wife and the detective must run thru "12 Rounds" of actions to gain the freedom of his wife. Lots of good action. A good movie for a Sunday afternoon!

Moving and riveting from start to finish. Manages to have a beginning, middle, and an ending. Keeps you intrigued to see the end.
