  Cena did a great job. i was impressed. It was a good movie for what it was. Patrick really did a good job.

• KJ P

  
  This was cool! But nothing more, and the action is pretty awesome!

• Anthony L

  
  Why the hell did I watch this film, why? Its sooooo bad you have to see it to believe it. Robert Patrick what are you doing? I think this is the worst film ever made! I didn?t realise it was a WWF production. Doh!

• Film C

  
  its a prety good movie and john cena proved to be a pretty good actor but its an entertaining action packed movie though cenas character did remind me of halloweens killer where he is practicular indestructable which makes it unbelievable and annoying

• Leigh R

  
  Not too bad, pretty decent movie.

• Martin S

  
  This is just useless action, violence, stupid catchphrases and bad-effect-explotions. Who are they trying to reach out to with this crap? And the car chase is gotta be the most stupid thing I've ever seen. Robert Patrick was good offcourse...but whata fuck?...We all knew that… More

And the car chase is gotta be the most stupid thing I've ever seen. Robert Patrick was good offcourse...but whata fuck?...We all knew that Cena sucked...but now...he officialy blows. It just looks like a parody of action

  Big action with huge explosions is what this movie is all about. Maybe a little unreal and over the edge for my opinion. The cast isn't bad John Cena performance is exactly what he know to do kicking and fighting all the time, Kelly Carlson looking hot and Robert Patrick with avery unusual villain. My conclusion, watch it if you like big explosions and non-stop action with very little acting.

  "Is this what you do all day? I had a GameBoy... they took it" What to say about this? That's a problem. If WWE is the company behind this film, be prepared for bad acting and a lousy script. The soundtrack reminded me at times of a 70's porn movie (not that… More
  "Is this what you do all day? I had a GameBoy... they took it" What to say about this? That's a problem. If WWE is the company behind this film, be prepared for bad acting and a lousy script. The soundtrack reminded me at times of a 70's porn movie (not that I've seen one..), so no help here either. The whole script is an embarrasement. Hey, I'm not a screenwriter but are these guys? Not so sure. Have fun! ...or don't. "We should have gone to the beach" That is absolutely true...

  General formula of any action fugitive movie with some stars acting. Good for 20 year olds.

  All I asked out of this film was for an average 2 and a half stars. Unfortunately, the WWE shows me how another one of their films just falls flat.<p>The story for this film is as thin as a piece of paper. The first 30 minutes are used totally for character development. In… More
  All I asked out of this film was for an average 2 and a half stars. Unfortunately, the WWE shows me how another one of their films just falls flat.<p>The story for this film is as thin as a piece of paper. The first 30 minutes are used totally for character development. In other words, it goes nowhere. Literally. That thin piece of paper, I mentioned earlier, only begins to come into play after this long failure of character development, and from then on out the film takes a turn from going nowhere to going nowhere even faster. The setting is bland and horrible and the dialogue is just ridiculous at times. Corny and full of racial slurs. Not to mention, there are a couple of useless characters in the middle.</p><p>The acting, as expected, is horrible. John Cena should just stick to wrestling. Even with popular names like Kelly Carlson and Robert Patrick the acting is still poor. I do think Robert Patrick is a good actor, but his character in this film is just plain crap. Why even consider doing this movie Robert?</p><p>The only decent thing about this film is the amount of action. These scenes are filled with potential, but what happens? The bad editing just takes that potential and throws it all away. At least you don't have John Cena performing wrestling moves left and right. If you like action in a movie and NOTHING else, then this may float your boat.</p><p>Take it from me, a wrestling fan, and stay away from this film, unless you are a die hard fan of John Cena. Just remember, the 90 minutes you spend watching this film will never come back to you.

  Well, isnt this movie a throwback to the action films of the early 90's, where nothing else mattered is kicking ass and things blowing up! ^_^ Pretty much thats what you would watch it, the action is okays, but it had a great car chase, one of the best Ive seen in recent… More
  Well, isnt this movie a throwback to the action films of the early 90's, where nothing else mattered is kicking ass and things blowing up! ^_^ Pretty much thats what you would watch it, the action is okays, but it had a great car chase, one of the best Ive seen in recent times. Acting is dodgy, except for Robert Patrick, another one of those undone actors who deserves more credit than he gets, he was great. And Kelly Carlson is hawwwwt. Anyways, Give John Cena some acting training and maybe some more good action movies will be churned out... more brainless and mindless violence, but don't we all love it?? I do. XD They coming back peoples, in the form of Matt Damon, Jason Statham, the Rock and others... make way for the new generation of action stars.

  Pure all out explosive, action fun.......and easy on the brain!

  Whoa! Amazing! Incredible explosion action I ever watched as I believe WWE champion John Cena should be the next new Arnold Schwarzenegger. Cena's really fantastic performance of non-stop action in his debut movie including his own stunts. When I looked at the locations where the city was filmed seemed familiar... should be in Gold Coast, Queensland, then I checked at the end of credit that I was correct.

  One incrediably lamre and cheesey action flick. It has it's pleasing moments but all out retarded

  I was not thrilled that I seen this in theaters. I am a huge fan of WWE ( so ill continue too see all) but let's face it, as a movie, this movie bit the dust. John Triton was like the terminator - it dissapointed me too see they really over done his character. I'd like too see a real man as a marine, then a man who seems immortal. Jumping out of exploding cars and spinning too saftey? Ridiculous.

  For people that think this film sucks, it doesn't. John Cena and the creators set out to make nothing more than a fun, thrilling, action-packed piece of entertainment that goes well with popcorn and soda. They succeeded nicely. The acting is so-so, but with a film like this, that is to be expected. If you're looking for a movie where you can just turn your brain off and relax for 92 minutes, then go see this.

• Roy G

  
  It's not a good film by any practical standard, but The Marine is bad in just the right way, a mindless throwaway that's at least smart enough not to take itself too seriously.

  John Cena - Wrestling superstar, Rapper and now big screen actor as he take's on the role of "John Triton", a special forces marine sent home from Iraq after disobeying an order. On a his way to a relaxing break with his wife (Kelly Carlson) she gets kidnapped by a gang of Diamond thieves led by "Rome"(Robert Patrick). It's up to "John Triton" to use his military experience to hunt them down and to save his girl. It's pretty much terrible in most areas. The acting and dialogue are of the very limited WWE standard, the plot - completely dumb, so many plot holes and mistakes it's unbelievable. What the film really relys on is the action sequences, they are exellent and do save the movie from being a complete disaster. Car chases, huge explosions, shoot-outs and some good ol' brawls all feature to thrill you throughout the 93 minute duration. Robert Patrick is great as the lead bad guy and gives the stand-out performance amongst the cast. John Cena can handle himself through the action scenes, but acting wise he fails. A complete no-brainer of a movie, but entertaining none the less.

  I don't know how to rate this. Some people would say that you have to "leave your brain at the door" to watch this movie. That doesn't work, because without it, you would not be able to make fun of it nonstop like me and my friends were doing. The movie is so… More
  I don't know how to rate this. Some people would say that you have to "leave your brain at the door" to watch this movie. That doesn't work, because without it, you would not be able to make fun of it nonstop like me and my friends were doing. The movie is so ridiculously hilarious, which is why I went, and I was satisfied within the first 5 minutes. There are explosions everywhere, bullets, babes, and brawn, all you would want, if your with the right people and konw what to expect.
