Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
GrimPrecise I'll tell you why so serious
SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.
Beulah Bram A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
Maziun This is Norris last movie , not counting his appearance in "The Expendables 2". What can I say ? It was a painful experience for me to watch this movie.Let's start with good things . Joanna Pacula after all those years is still sexy . There is one really good joke here – "Told you, he was the bad guy". The movie is short , not even full 1 and half hour. The story actually had potential for good movie.OK , now with the bad things . The director Bill Tannen directs it with obvious and annoying MTV-style. There are moments where the movie treats its audience as retarded idiots who can't remember simple facts , so we are forced to see some unnecessary flashbacks. The action scenes are badly placed . There is quit a lot of them in the first half and almost none in the second half of the movie. The movie deals with delicate subject as Holocaust in not very subtle way. There is lot of stupidity here . Chuck Norris only needs one pistol to defeat everybody. It doesn't matter that the opponents have Uzi or even better guns . He will kill them anyway. Also , what's with the bad guys beating Norris almost every time ? I like when action hero has difficulties , but this is just embarrassing.Anyway , this is a bad farewell to Norris . I give it 1/10.
johnyoshinobu Chuck Norris has been around for a long time. Some know him from his Karate days, he was world champion for 6 years in the late 60s early 70s Most of us saw him first in 1972 in Way of the Dragon (he was a minor villain). If you missed that he stared in about 20 films from the late 70s to early 90s. Then he had the long running TV show Walker Texas Ranger. In 2005 he made his final movie, this is that movie. Its pretty good for a 65 year old action star who is given one of the worst scripts of all time. Spoilers Below Chuck Norris is a private investigator who specializes in missing persons cases. A girls uncle gets kidnapped by neo Nazis to cut two demands of religious significance to the Jewish people (he is Jewish and what a victim of the Holocost) Chuck Norris finds him and kills Nazis. Thats about it. The acting is decent, the dialog is bad, the story has loopholes big enough to drive a semi truck through. But at the end of the day its good, cheep fun. I got it for five dollars and don't regret it in the least. I advise you do the same. I also apologize for any spelling mistakes.
callanvass I bought The Cutter in a bargain bin at a place her called Rogers Video for 5$. Chuck has never been known for his acting ability,but I am a fan of his action movies,so I decided to give it a chance. 85% of the time, I was bored by the lack of action,there are barely any fights,the story isn't very interesting and even Chuck himself looked bored. You have two great legit Martial Artist's in Chuck Norris and Dainel Bernhardt,why not give the fans a special fight,instead of giving us the crap they did. I was just so disappointed in it all,how on earth could they screw that one up?. The story itself is routine and unimaginative,Diamonds??..We've seen this story too many times before and done better at that. Did Chuck need a decent paycheck that badly?..this sure looked like a paycheck film,I didn't see the point of this film being made what so ever. I really should stop watching all these DTV action films,but every once in a while you find a surprising gem in a batch,however The Cutler is definitely not one of them. If you wanna see some good Chuck films,perhaps you should go back to his glory days and start there.Performances. Chuck Norris looks asleep for the most part of the film. Why did he make this film,if he didn't care about it?. He looked so bored half the time,only showing up for a couple of fight scenes. The charisma is non existent,his dialog is awful..what happened Chuck?. Joanna Pacula is OK. She's pretty but not much else. Daniel Bernhardt is a well known martial artist, But he plays it much too over the top as the villain. He was wooden and his potentially classic showdown with Chuck is never delivered,what a shame.Bottom Line. The Cutter is yet,another terrible DTV Action film. No thrills,no excitement,boring dialog and amateurish acting. Not recommended unless you want to cure your insomnia.3/10
smiley-32 I saw THE CUTTER not long ago. It was a good film, especially in Chuck Norris's honor.In this film, he plays as John Sheperd. A former police officer turned Private Investigator who takes on any job for a price. Following a job that went wrong.. after failing to save a daughter.. Sheperd's life is shattered, when he blames the police for not doing their job. Determined to get over it, he runs himself into another case.. This time, when a diamond cutter's father is mysteriously kidnapped. Sheperd takes on the case, which leads into something more sinister. Someone has stolen an artifact from the Sinai desert, and the diamonds have been vanished.Enter Daniel Bernhardt who plays Dirk. A ruthless criminal who works for Col. Speerman (Curt Lowens).. As the film goes on, everything about these characters begin to fall into place with some consequences..This film is one of Norris's best. Although he maybe old, but still he's tough enough to play the good guy all round. Still beating the cr*p out of the bad guys.. Daniel Bernhardt who plays the villain.. He was good.. He was more of a ruthless assassin who just gets what he wants.. Killing people who stands in his way until he squares off against Norris in a climatic fighting scene at the end.There was also Tracy Scoggins.. who I haven't seen on film for quite some time. She stood out great. She was amazing! And Joanna Pacula.. Great performance.. Still the same Joanna!Bill Tannen's directing was also good. Although the idea of this fast forward sequence which we see in the film is good. At least, in some films.. It didn't drag on too long. Tannen kept the pace going right until the end.Well, I had a great time watching this flick.. Good action from start to finish! 8 out of 10!
