Movie Review : Cold Light of Day

Share

Will Shaw (Henry Cavill) goes to Spain for a weeklong sailing vacation with his family but his whole world turns upside down when the family is kidnapped by intelligence agents hell-bent on recovering a mysterious briefcase and Will suddenly finds himself on the run.

PROS

  • Good action scenes
  • nice to see Bruce Willis is still making movies

CONS

  • The plot was very loose and predictable.

Favorite quote

Lucia: I was not your father’s lover… but my mother was!

Jean Carrack: You’re scared, and scared people holding guns in my face… that scares me.

Conclusion

Cold Light of day is a good action movie for a lazy Saturday night but it will not live long in the memory . It has some gripping action scenes but the plot is too loose and will leave you scratching your head thinking “why is this happening” . It is over-reliant on chases, the villain of the piece is a bit too easy to identify (there could have been some uncertainty which would have been helpful in terms of plot dynamics), and there are vast numbers of unanswered questions .
