tonybedford What a strange film!I actually really liked the start, where you don't really know what's going on apart from some military activity of unknown origin. You do have a feeling of being right there in the action, and that feeling is progressed through to the end. This is an idea with legs - and it looks like it will run and run but...There were a few things that ruined this movie:1) The characters seem to get quickly bogged down. Not only in terms of location but in terms of where their characters are going. There seems to be poor motivation for the characters.2) The acting from Brittany Snow was terrible. Is this the actresses fault or do we blame the director for this? Whatever - it just felt really off in places - for example when the Gran died and when the priest killed himself. The poor acting just jolted me out of the moment. Funnily enough I thought the acting from Bautista was very good and I found his character very believable!3) Very odd plot moments such as the church, the laundromat, and the gang house. Felt surreal in places.4) Terrible ending. This is just bad script-writing in my opinion. The ending had a very unfinished feel to it. Events must have some logical purpose to them and a story without a conclusive ending will always fall flat. At least, the ending fell flat for me. I was almost surprised when the end credits rolled. Sure, I understand they had a message to get across on the futility and waste of violence, but the laws of screen-writing still apply - you need a compelling ending with RESOLUTION!On the whole a good idea, with good action moments and well shot so you feel like you are in the action. Let down by some bad directing/acting and a poor ending.

bigdirty1369 My expectations were exceeded and I found myself fully engaged in this film. Cast was strong and Dave Bautista has honed his skills. The only character who's acting I found weak was that of Lucy's Sister Belinda. The opening scene is an amazing aerial view of New York City from Coney Island to the city. The single camera filming style creates a sense of being a witness to a serious situation rather than the usual multi angled, multiple take films with obvious flaws in continuity. Hats off to the camera operators & sound techs. Great film.

vicverg-87655 The worst movie I've seen in my entire life, without beginning or end, the productors should be clarify that it's just a test of actors (very bad), and director. The book, written by a madman.

Leofwine_draca As a huge fan of action movies, I read about BUSHWICK and was entranced. It's a low budget, gritty, real-time thriller set on the mean streets of New York which is in the process of being invaded by a military force operating out of Texas. It turns out that a bunch of redneck states are wishing to break off from the US and invading those wanting to stay. The film follows a couple of characters, the great Dave Bautista and an annoying sweary blonde girl, as they navigate streets and buildings and attempt to survive. It's supposed to be shot in a single take and the roving camerawork is a real asset, although there are many cuts hidden by sweeps and CGI. The characterisation isn't very good and the bits where the leads settle down to chat inside buildings are quite dull; the worst character is the druggie who is a real irritant. However, the shooting and fight scenes have really fluid choreography that works nicely and are as good as, if not better, than those seen in many a big budget Hollywood blockbuster.
