Sacrifice (I) (2011)
Beige
16 October 2011
The whole idea/storyline is unoriginal and screams 'Foxtel cop show', The acting at the beginning of the film was about as convincing as the acting in a porn movie. Cuba Gooding Jr's performance gained momentum as the movie progressed, however his character was not memorable, though that was probably due to a bad script. As for Christian Slater, he was foolishly cast as a priest, for which he gave a weak performance where he came off as uninterested and far too smug, with a different script it might have been slightly funny, but as this is a serious movie I doubt that was the intended affect. As for the characters from the drug-ring, they were painfully stereotypical. If each character from the film had been made just a touch more clichéd, and with an edited script, it could be a satirical comedy. All in all a predictable and unmemorable movie that smacks of childishness despite it's large amount of curse words and sexual references.
