TheLittleSongbird If it wasn't for, agreed, the cool-looking getaway car Ready 2 Die would have had no redeeming values at all. It could have been fun if done right, in the end it just ended up being unpleasant and ineptly done. The scenery and lighting look dull and the effects are cheesy and rather amateurish, but the camera work and editing do them no favours. In fact, the movie's visual look was one of its biggest flaws, it is shot so cheaply and in such a rushed way that it is enough to make one feel nauseous. The dialogue is riddled with clichés, doesn't even try to make sense and is horrendously stilted, the constant joking at horrible things like shooting people in the face were I feel in very bad taste. The story and characters are a huge issue as well. The story has no fun, excitement, suspense, momentum or any sense of danger, instead it's plodding, predictable and tasteless with very little happening in the storytelling, events that you can smell a mile off and the joking that makes you hate the characters more. The characters are incredibly shallow and you never get to know or identify with them, instead they are very obnoxious and have no redeeming qualities(no humanity at all seemingly) at all basically. They are also so similar that even figuring out who is who and who's the main one is difficult. The acting are a painful mix of annoying over-acting and some not even trying, it's not worth bothering naming standouts because there's not a single good performance among the cast. You know that's something wrong when the getaway car upstages the lot of them. The direction is on par with the camera work in ineptness, particularly in the action scenes which are incoherent and lacking in pretty much everything. The music is at best forgettable and is often repetitive and overbearing. All in all, apart from the car there is next to nothing good about Ready 2 Die, there are worse movies around, but that is no consolation and certainly no excuse for this level of badness. 2/10 Bethany Cox

doublebky So I saw a decent rating on this film om IMDb and thought to myself "Hey, it is only 80 minutes long and sounds interesting...why not?" HUGE MISTAKE!!!! This movie has so many Grand Theft Auto clichés that I truly think the writers of the movie/script played the game while coming up with material. Stereotypical thugs rob banks and flee from the police but at no time do they seem to be worried/threatened. Word gets out about the money they have. The dialogue is BEYOND horrible. Junior high kids talk about better things. Shot on a low budget with low expectations.The only reason why it gets a 2 is because the getaway car is pretty cool. The camera work sucks The acting looks worse than a junior high school play. They did manage to have a few explosions but even those looked cheezy.At no point in time do you feel any sympathy for the "good guys" (use that term loosely, after all, they brag about shooting innocent women). I found myself hoping they would get killed just so it would be OVER! After 60 minutes of watching, I literally was laughing at how horrible the plot was and why the hell I was still watching. If you make it that far, you deserve some kind of award.AVOID!

Stuart Conover I was looking for a new crime filled movie (lets admit it gangster flicks are always a blast) when I stumbled across Ready 2 Die. The plot is pretty straight forward with a bank robbery gone wrong as they are trying to get somewhere safe after stealing quite a load of money. Of course the cops are after them as you would expect but to top that off they also have to avoid rival gang members who want the money for themselves. The characters within aren't people you are going to necessarily like but if you love to watch people getting away with (quite literally) murder this is a joyride you aren't going to want to get off of. The plot is a pretty standard robbery flick with a low budget but but the action really stood out as gritty and fun. Honestly the budget is what hurt this film as if the filmmakers had more to put into the effects I really could see this as something that could stand out. As it is if you are in the mood for some pure violent fun this one would be worth your time!

genandkel Worst movie I've seen in ages. High School kids could have done a better job filming this in my opinion. The film looked like it was shot on a fifty dollar budget. I had a house full of people that wanted to burn the movie after the first twenty minutes. I couldn't help but semi watch it to the end do to the fact it was like an accident, You couldn't look away. The video was choppy and the special affects were nothing less than school kid antics. How anyone could even market this film is beyond me but it obviously caught someone's attention. It has the usual makings of a action film, sex, violence, murder and car chases and it still didn't meet my expectations or the expectations of my peers. Im really having a hard time summing this one up but don't take my word for it give it a look for yourself.
