fredgfinklemeyer 07/21/2018 A predictable revenge storyline with lame/cliché dialog. Not even close to what we should expect from John Travolta's acting, nor his contemporary fellow actors and this absolutely low grade, poor choice of a movie. If this is his future, then he's done. And his Count Dracula/Nicolas Cage hairdo sucks/looks fake because it is fake, he's bald in real life and would look much better/more real life as a bald guy. Not what I expected in a J.T. movie - very disappointed. Five (5) stars is about right.

hrkepler 'I Am Wrath' is by the numbers cliché ridden action ride that fails to offer much entertainment. The script is so dull, that all the twists are not twisty enough and the drawn out dialogue doesn't give much material to the actors. And that's sad, because the two main stars, John Travolta and Christopher Meloni have nice free flowing chemistry between them, and both of them are charismatic and talented to pull off bad ass tough guys with emotional range. But the charm of these two actors weren't just enough to enliven otherwise dull film. Maybe the film would have been better with William Friedkin's (who was in talks to direct the film) treatment. Not totally bad film overall, and I don't say that very often, but 'I Am Wrath' is complete waste of time.

Leofwine_draca I AM WRATH sees director Chuck Russell (whose magnum opus is still THE BLOB) return to directing after an absence of a decade and a half. He's chosen an action thriller vehicle for the latest ageing leading man turned action star, namely John Travolta, complete with a hair transplant and a fine line in bad-ass one-liners. This is a rather cheap copy of the kind of formula that TAKEN has popularised these days, and it sees Travolta going on a rampage of revenge after his wife is brutally murdered by a gang of thugs.The problem with I AM WRATH is the familiarity of the plot. You can work out the big twist in the first five minutes and often the writing feels lazy and second-rate. Travolta is okay as the lead but the film lacks decent choreography in the fight scenes and the Thai guy they got to do the choreography did an only average job. Some bits could have been great, like when a Stanley knife is used as a weapon, but GREEN ROOM did a similar moment much better. Supporting Travolta is a near-unrecognisable Rebecca De Mornay, but the best player is Christopher Meroni who gets all of the best lines as the wisecracking buddy.

NestorNestor 'I Am Wrath' is very moving film - it is not hard to move on after first fifteen minutes. I managed to sit through it somehow. It's almost like John Travolta wanted to make a lousy parody of Nicolas Cage. 'John Wick' made revenge movies look cool again, and 'I Am Wrath' really tries to emulate similar coolness but it falls out like toothless alligator trying to eat buffalo. Travolta and Christopher Meloni has good chemistry between them, but the script is too shallow that the actors don't have enough material to work on. It uses every, absolutely every known cliché to human kind, that all the twists of the film can be guessed at the opening credits even if you have turned off your brain almost comatose like state. No surprises, no style. Totally unnecessary movie.Oh yeah, John Travolta's hairpiece deserves it's own movie.
