Savage Dog: Mindless action drivel
I went into this as a random pick and mix film, they tend to be horrors.....this wasn't.
Savage Dog is an old school action flick starring Scott Adkins and the excellent veteran of the industry Keith David.
It tells the story of a disgraced former boxer in 1959 who finds himself at the mercy of a local baron who wants him to fight for money. It's full of your usual mindless action tropes and though the action certainly looks good it doesn't make it any different than 10k comparable titles.
The narration/performance by David is solid as usual, as for Adkins I don't see the appeal. The man is dull and lifeless much like Van Damme and Lungren were when they first started out in the industry.
Every square inch of this film has been done before and better. I may not be the demographic, I may generally not like action films and therefore am hard to please but this is so generic it hurts.
The Good:
Action looks great
Keith David
The Bad:
As shallow and mindless as they come
Things I Learnt From This Movie:
Action movie actors start terrible and get marginally better over the years
