Breach (2020)

Breach (2020). Another movie I found and watched via scrolling through Amazon Prime today.

I've seen this movie show up on Redbox and was tempted once or twice to take a chance on it. I only gave it an inkling of a thought because it had Bruce Willis and Thomas Jane. I mean I know that Bruce hasn't been in the best of movies these days. It's almost like he's got so much money that he's like "Sure, what the hell, I'll do your shitty movie for a thousand million bucks" or he's in need of money but unless he's totally fucked up his finances, I'm leaning towards the former. Thomas on the otherhand probably needs money.

The story line of this movie is like many movies these days and, in fact, probably over the past decade: been there, done that.

Turns out Thomas's screen time was very limited. I think he probably got his 15 minutes of 'fame' spread over the course of the movie. Bruce, on the otherhand, was present almost nonstop although his character was fairly lame.

The graphics and CGI were circa 2000s or even earlier. And as mentioned, the plot has been done many times before in the same AND different ways so therefore was very predictable. Even though the story line has been done before, it initially seemed like it would be a decent movie. WRONG!

FINAL VERDICT: This movie is highly passable. I watched it because it was 'free'. I would have been very disappointed if I had rented it from Redbox for $1.80+tax and even more so if I wasted my Redbox points on it to make it a 'free' rental. It just wasn't written well, filmed well or acted well.
