This film has references to multiple films: since John Wick to Rocky they're present. He vows to find their killer by drinking too much and getting beat up in underground fights. I have lot of problems with this movie. But that was the only 2 things I liked in this movie everything else is boring we have seen it all before crap from people that have no passion and should be fired from the movie industry forever. Well, don't think about it just don't watch "Acts of Vengeance.". Synopsis Is the same old bloody revenge stuff that has just is getting so old by now that is just a dying genre.

I think that the people who have made this movie don't know what the f they are doing. Acting is alright - Banderas and Urban do the job as much as the script allows them to, the rest is typical B-movie stuff. First thing I noticed at the beginning of the film was that it was very cheesy and poorly executed. The Acts of Vengeance served as Marvel's bridge from the 1980s into 1990, so they went overboard!
