Vendetta (2015)
Rated R
Starring Dean Cain, Paul "The Big Show" Wight, Michael Eklund,
Directed by Jen & Sylvia Soska
The Story:
When Detective Mason Danvers (Cain) life is shattered, he lets go of his badge to get himself tossed into the same prison as Victor Abbott (Wight). However, life for a former cop isn't so easy on the inside.
Well, if you were ever wondering whatever happened to Dean Cain, now you know.
:)
From a few years back, this WWE Studios effort is actually a fairly decent action thriller.
The depths that Mason sinks not only to get into prison, but what he does after he's inside are truly horrifying for a former cop.
Of course, when you're in a prison as crooked as Shawshank, everything that is going to unfold behind the prison walls is not only possible, it's encouraged.
Eklund is particularly slimy as the warden, but Wight, otherwise known to a generation of wrestling fans as the Big Show, is particularly well suited as the gangster who is willing to go back to prison as long as he destroys Mason's life.
Nothing new and earth-shattering in cinematic history, but WWE Studios continues to put out well made films that will keep your attention from start to finish.
I'm okay with that.
Final Grade: C+
