MR DIESEL CAN ACT!!,
By Jason Thorne (England / Oxford) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Man Apart [DVD] (DVD)
I have never really been a fan of Van Diesel in films like Triple XXX ,Pitch Black but after watching this the guy can act really well. He played this part with ease after losing his wife in a shoot out at his retreat he stops at nothing to track the killer down it's that simple. The story is good and the acting again is better than most films out there more so from Van Diesel. The action is full on from the word go with some great gun fights this is well worth a view if you like a good action film. If you are a big Van Diesel fan and you are reading this why haven't you watched it I would say it's his best acting role to date by a mile.

Diesel Power,

This review is from: A Man Apart [DVD] (DVD)
In this film Vin Diesel shows that he has acting skills galore! His range of emotions and his facial expressions are really impressive! He is constantly improving.....and the only thing I think he should work on now is his voice. He should use even more tonalities, painting shades of emotion and expressions that go directly to our ears and into our hearts.......then he would definitely be second to none! In this film he is also supported by an excellent Larenz Tate and other actors who help to move the action-filled story along quite nicely.Although Diesel gave us some outstanding moments as far as his acting abilities are concerned the film was hobbled by a seriously confusing plot "directed" by F. Gary Gray! It is obvious that Diesel did the best he could with the what the Gray gave him! Too bad that it appears that something happened in the editing room and some scenes and information that would have helped us viewers to understand things better got left on the cutting room floor! For instance: why would "Diablo" destroy his own cocaine empire or blow up his own wife and son? Who or what is Vin Diesel smiling at when he leaves the scene at the end of the film where the drug lord is being arrested again? Is that supposed to be a smile or a nod to his dead wife or a sign of satisfication that he finally got his man!?...perhaps both?! Maybe it is just me but it also seems to me that some of the action scenes were confusing....in one scene in particular it was not clear who were the "bad" guys and who were working with or for Vin Diesel! If the director edited it that way to create "suspense" well the only thing he created was more confusion! Anyway I liked this film well enough to buy it to add to my Vin Diesel collection! But ONLY because Vin Diesel is in it and does a fantastic job with his character! Good thing that this Gray cloud has a silver lining: Vin Diesel!

This review is from: A Man Apart [DVD] (DVD)
duh! A poor script written along tired lines with questionable editing, irretrievable whatever the quality of the actors. A disappointment to me having watched all Vin's other films.
