You know you're watching a bad movie when you immediately dislike it after 5 minutes and then in hope of the movie improving it doesn't after 20 minutes. Then when you have lost all hope that this movie will improve you immediately turn off the movie. Kite is one of those movies that has the dishonour of being one of those bad movies that I have pressed stop after 20 minutes. Yes, this movie was so bad I could not go a minute further.Kite seemed like Kick-Ass (2010) meets Mad Max (1979). This movie is unpleasantly and unappealingly violent and the action scenes were also very poor and unexciting. Apart from the little known cast, what on earth was Samuel L. Jackson doing in such a rubbish movie?! Looks like he needed a bit of extra money to pay the bills and to keep up his work ethic.Unless this type of movie appeals to you, don't bother.1/10.

If You Like the Films of Luc Besson, the Kick-Ass Movies, Girls With Guns and Comic-Book Style Ultra-Violence than This One's for You. Very Colorful Template and Some Rousing Action Makes this a B-Movie Worth a Watch.Incredibly Cute Young Heroine with Wigs, Make-Up, and Wardrobe Straight Out of Japanese Anime. This is a Dark Tale of Flesh Peddling, Drug Inducement, and Survival Among the Worst of Humanity.Flashy with a Club and Dub Soundtrack this Makes for Some Sleazy Entertainment for the Pulp Minded and has Enough to Offer Grindhouse Fans and Cult Movie Enthusiasts. It Rarely Disappoints and Delivers the Goods.Underrated Low-Budget Kicker that is Exploitive Entertainment Extraordinaire. It's Slick, and is Better than its Reputation.

As the saying goes, not many surprises to be found here, but still a somewhat decent low budget effort. Formula is well known and with an added gravitas such as Samuel L. Jackson, you give the movie some weight (it's not like he can help all the flaws this has, but he's always mesmerizing to watch).The other actors are mixed bunch. The action (choreography) though is pretty good. Always taking into account what movie that is. There is also a lot of blood and drug use fyi, though I'm sure you can read that in the rating explanation too. There are not many shades of gray character wise, you do get them in color scheme of the picture though. For some it might be a bit too dark of course.

Reviews on this seem to range between worst ever and careful analysis of the movie compared to real live. Hello? It is an action movie, with futuristic elements to boot. Also, most reviewers have suspiciously only reviewed 1 or 2 movies and an IMDb account for several weeks or months. I call those reviews in doubt. Is it a great movie. No. But neither are most movies by Bruce Willis, Sylvester Stalone and basically anything by Michael Bay. And still, most of you watch it. Quite frankly I rather watch this than yet another Die Hard franchise movie or something out of the Expandable series which is basically recycling for has-been actors. So what DO we have here. Just a nice action movie, manga remake such as Aeon Flux or Ultra Violet, while the style is more reminiscent of Leon or Banlieu 13 (both by Luc Besson), but without the quality of either of the latter. Just a nice movie on a Saturday night or a rainy day with friends watching a cute naive girl kicking the crap out of some guys. Don't analyze the characters or the story, as you wouldn't with the majority of these kinds of movies, and you'll be OK.
