Point Blank Reviews

Whilst it follows the original film's narrative fairly closely, Lynch really makes Cavayé's source material his own thanks to his frenetic directing style and some really savvy script changes...

Point Blank takes a by-the-numbers plot and floats to a finish. There's nothing wrong with that. Just nothing note-worthy. And in the battle for our attention that's not going to pay the bills.

| Original Score: B- | Jan 8, 2020

For the most part, Point Blank is forgettable - a fact that feels not only like a letdown for viewers, but a disappointment for leads Mackie and Grillo.

A remake can be a dangerous thing. A remake of a film that is critically acclaimed and heavily appreciated must be done well. In the case of Netflix originalPoint Blank, the film proved to be a dangerous thing, and it wasn't done well.

Point Blank is a forgettable action thriller. Anthony Mackie and Frank Grillo have a solid dynamic throughout, but a weak script and undefined tone leave for a messy end result.

| Original Score: 5/10 | Aug 16, 2019

For movie lovers, Big D's running commentary will at least induce a few chuckles (but even his lines suffer from the same amnesia that plagues the plot).

| Aug 13, 2019

A half-baked remake of Fred Cavaye's 2010 French thriller.

| Original Score: C | Aug 2, 2019

Point Blank could have potentially gone in a different, bolder, more exciting direction but instead the film chooses predictable paths and flatlines in the process.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 29, 2019

Netflix's Point Blank is a damn good action movie full of grievous bodily harm.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jul 22, 2019

While the film doesn't reach the fantastical heights of Okja or the emotional lows of Kodachrome, [Netflix's] Point Blank offers an entertaining experience which works due to the chemistry of the cast.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jul 19, 2019

The remake of Point Blank has the ingredients for success, but the film never delivers, consistently fizzling out instead of coming to a boil.

| Jul 19, 2019

If anything, the film emanates a startling ineptitude, unable as it is to clear some basic standards of craftsmanship.

| Jul 18, 2019

Super-violent action thriller with profanity, blood.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 17, 2019

Point Blank makes sense as a Netflix release, given the flimsy potting and lack of electricity from its main cast.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 17, 2019

Who cares if the ending of "Point Blank" seems a bit cheesy? It's the exciting journey that counts.

| Jul 14, 2019

You can see the beats coming from a mile away in this movie, but just like it says in the film, it doesn't have to be perfect just believable.

| Jul 14, 2019

Comes off like a watered down, bootleg version of Collateral if it was presented as a buddy comedy

| Original Score: 5/10 | Jul 14, 2019

A remake with proper personality. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jul 14, 2019

Point Blank is death by a thousand cuts. There's no single great flaw in the story or the characters, just a bunch of little things that add up to frustration.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jul 13, 2019

A remake of the 2010 French thriller of the same title, Point Blank mostly runs on the fumes of its chase-movie formula.

| Original Score: C | Jul 12, 2019
