Review of Wounded

Wounded (1997)
3/10
Wounded: Great idea, shoddy execution
20 November 2018
When a pair of park rangers discover a host of dead bears they call in reinforcements to track down those responsible. Sadly they get more than they bargained for, one single man who is far more dangerous than they imagined.

Essentially at its core Wounded is a revenge thriller starring Madchen Amick and a host of faces you'll recognise but struggle to put a name to. Among them is Jim "Bobby from Supernatural" Beaver who doesn't get all too much camera time.

I like the story, I think it's fantastic but somewhere along the way the creators dropped the ball and wasted it. It could/should have been so much more but the finished product is a really rather boring little thriller.

It's movies like Wounded that need remaking, a film with a great story but was made by people who didn't know just quite what they had.

Damn shame.

The Good:

Great story

The Bad:

Really boring

Horrible opening

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

At no point did I care about a human more than the bears and the dog

Jim Beaver in something without him calling someone an idjit is just weird
