Riot (2015)
Nothing spectacular, but all around good to watch.
Was an enjoyable, if somewhat predictable movie. Some of the characters were a little obvious in their place in the film, but with one like this it's to be expected. The core characters for the most part though, were decent. Actually, if you count a couple of little things to pick apart (like grabbing a weapon to lead a swat team - in a suit), and that's stuff that many major movies do also, well that's why it's a movie. The only issue I had really, with the movie as a whole, were some of the action sequences. There were times when watching them where it felt that you were watching the choreography being rehearsed instead of a full-on fight scene. There were plenty of stuff left to the imagination, a lot of back story that you just get a vague overview of and are left to just take on faith that Yep, that's why this is this way, and that's why this is this way. If you can overlook those things though, it was exactly the kind of movie it sounds like, and worth a watch on a weeknight when you're bored.
