So we have all seen the look I'm in a gang, I'm hard I've got a gun bang bang roll credits type movies, the shelves are full of them this is what makes it oh so different. Kill Kane starting out shows Vinnie not as the usual Hard Nut but as a family man going about his daily life, then they see something that changes the course of there lives which forces Vinnie's hand. Very well laid out and bring together a multitude of nightmare scenarios being in the wrong place, firm after you, family being held hostage and the rest I wont say you will just have to watch but to all the other reviews seriously unfair.The Direction was excellent and the whole thing was excellent

This is a lethal dose of horrendous acting, crippling pace and horrible script bundled into one. Usually B-movies, the type where Vinnie Jones dabbles in for these recent years, can at least be appreciated for their silly antics or embellished action. However, "Kill Kane" can barely produce basic elements of actual movie, which makes it terribly cheap and utterly boring to witness.Using vengeance theme, Vinnie Jones is on the warpath to avenge his family. It's all presented in two interweaving timelines, one where he is on a rampage, and the other one where the deed happens, as though regular narrative is not complex enough for the refined production. There's no way to sugarcoat this, the acting is so poor, none of the characters even remotely seem believable.Everyone acts in a heinous outlandish soap opera manner, while also manage to seemingly reading from a teleprompter as they gaze randomly. It often shows ridiculous scenes of people shouting in profanity, yelling useless banter or just Vinnie Jones doing solemn musing. As a lead, he does try, but the performance is rigid at best. This doesn't create any semblance of connection, and the insipid script gives no aid whatsoever.Action is practically a couple of people skulking around in random alley or room, firing toy weapon and thus trying to pass Betadine spill as gunshot wound. It has no structure beyond this come and shoot. The setting isn't portrayed well either, lighting would pan inconsistently or the shot would linger needlessly on weird expression. Furthermore, it tries to create emotional tension on the supposed important dramatic scene, yet the acting ruins even this.The movie will kill only good mood one has when watching it. This one should just be avoided like real life bullet.

Vinnie hits a new low, very low. I couldn't even get through twenty minutes of it before giving up. Charles Bronson's version of the same concept was so much better. There is no plot because the suspense required to carry it is given away in the summary and there is little surprise at any point in this movie. Vinnie is your basic brute in everything I've ever seen him and he follows a typical path of blood and punishment. The only difference here is that the script is so bad and the scenes so disjointed in an effort to be dramatic that it becomes worse than comical or even satirical. It would have been a better movie to go all out on the satire of the genre. There are no redeeming features to this movie. Even the English accents can't hide how bad it is. Trouble is, the actors are doing their best in an otherwise copy cat movie with a generic script. They don't have much to work with. Vinnie should have run as far as he could from this "movie". He is capable of something better.

Watched this at a friends house and it was cardboard acting at its worse. Should be called "Vinnie Jones Killed This Movie"Not even worth reviewing due to the fact the movie lacked any substance and weak acting abilities to keep me focused. The story was the same old done over time and time again in many other films and Jones with his typical hard man act that has been done to death.. The small amount of cast speaks volumes and that this was done on a tight budget so therefore justified going straight to DVD.. I found myself drifting off in the first 30 minuets from the start but managed to suffer it until the end. Unless you are a fan of Vinnie Jones films then i would spend your money on a far better movie than Kill Kane.Verdict: Do not bother watching.
