Trigger Point

Started ok, and nice to see Mr Pepper in a lead role. But, quickly descended into tropes wide and deep enough to drive a bus into: Infinite bullets in the gun, single shot kills by the good guy while the bad guys miss consistently, bad guy speech just before being killed at the end, inexplicable re-appearance of the bookstore lady (who apparently got shot earlier), music score desperately (and unsuccessfully) trying to create drama/tension. Yawn.

Almost minimally watchable, though all in all 'Trigger Point' makes for an underwhelming 90 minutes. It's like a mix of 'John Wick' and, less so, 'The Equalizer', but unfortunately it never reaches the heights of either of those two flicks. Barry Pepper is actually a relatively solid lead, I could see myself enjoying a performance of his in a role like this - but only if the flick had more going for it, which this sadly doesn't. It would seem a trilogy of these could be on the horizon. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't interested in seeing where they'd take things, but that's merely some sort of morbid curiosity that I have as opposed to any kind of excitement or anything.

It's a good Canadian motion picture, Trigger Point, 2021, directed by a Canadian Brad Turner...with strong castings, a Canadian, Colm Feore...and of course, the leading actor, also a Canadian-American, Barry Pepper...

One of the worst TV shows ever put to air. The script is awful. The direction is a shambles. And either their ‘expert advisors' didn't want to be a part of it and walked away, or they have been totally ignored. Total rubbish.

I keep coming back to this- whats the point of having a bomb disposal squad that systematically fails to stop bombs exploding? What's the point of having a supposed expert (McLure) who looks bemused by the technical tasks facing her. Big flaw in the story for me- hope in the real world she'd have been fired before the end of the series.

Far too slow with no real plot, and overly dramatised scenes. There's only been one episode so far and my review is based on that, as I was really disappointed with it and had to fast forward the whole nonsense light switch scene as was getting really angry with it. She in no way needed to be clinging on so dramatically to that switch, that if you watch back, she literally just had her fingers on, and at no point did she switch it on. What is a very standard and basic circuit switch, which would have made a connection made when switched on, never had its contacts made and only would if she flipped the switch. I was outraged that this has all been shown, as what a load of bull!

A decent premise, but not explained very well as to the background of the characters involved.

He's hiding in a small town when his former operative life comes back for him. His memory gone, it takes a while and some a few shootouts for the truth to surface.

Pretend the greenhouse scene never happened and the movie is not bad.

Great film, very well done!
