American Badger (2021)

Updated: Jun 1, 2021

My quick rating - 4,3/10. The story in this one is extremely played out. Another hitman assigned to take out a girl but ends up having feelings for her and finds himself at war with basically everyone. For a low budget flick, this one actually has some pretty nice fight and action choreography. It doesn't shy back on violence either which I would assume would be common play when you kill people for a living. I wasn't a fan of the hooker turned target part of it. How they tried to bring that together was a stretch. Kirk Caouette as the hitman was an interesting take on a tried character. At least he gave it some originality to a standard persona. But unfortunately that is about all the positives I can drag out of this. The villains are so stereotypical and acting all around is less than average. I wish they could've just come up with something that at least veered off the usual path a little bit to give it it's own style but instead it is just a rehash. Not upset I watched it and I believe action movie fans will be fine with it (the fight scene with the knife on the floor is one I haven't seen since old school 70s kung fun flix) but it is a one view and done entry.
