Game On
A greedy, smug little maggot wants to make a TV show but no one is gonna produce it for him. Why? It's a show of pure violence and anything goes. He's pulled inmates who are condemned to death out of third world country prisons to fight in a kill-or-be-killed game. No one volunteers, but do they have a choice? Not really.
Stone Cold Steve Austin stars alongside Vinnie Jones as contestants for the web streamed show. Millions of viewers watch as various treachery occurs between opponents, within a 30 hour time period. All the while condoning what turns out to be basically one giant snuff film.
Why would anyone with morals want to watch a movie about a TV show about killing? The Condemned shows what could happen if reality Tv really got out of hand. No I mean REALLY got out of hand. Its not as graphic as it couldve been. It's more of an action flick and way less gorier than a slasher film. It's a little predictable, although it's never boring. The cast of actors come off totally genuine and nail their lines with precise capability. Plus, Stone Cold is so charming. Not to mention the soundtrack was pretty good too. Overall it's satirically entertaining.

| I mentioned in my review of this that I thought at first that Stone Cold's acting was a little stiff but then towards the end I think it was sh*tty editing which made the acting so script sounding.....I liked this better then the Marine.... |
