Awfully forgettable, but Harlin makes things go boom again, with ruthless efficiency that puts the flick just over the hump of the straight-to-cable Jeff Speakman school. [Blu-ray]

A very satisfying and well made action thriller that could only be improved if Arnold Schwarzenegger was the star.

The future of vacuous action movies is clearly with the likes of Cena, humans who resemble characters from video games, albeit without the acting chops.

...a decent action movie that could've been a great one...

as a fast-food action director, Renny Harlin still delivers a fun movie
July 04, 2009
With its wonderful post-Katrina NOLA setting and the standard stunt spectacle as only Harlin can deliver, 12 Rounds is actually quite good. It's no masterpiece, but then again, few post-millennial adrenaline rushes have been.

There's a decent little action movie somewhere inside '12 Rounds': a bit more complexity of character, a few more jokes and a hero who doesn't look like a two-by-four with a buzz cut might have gone a long way.
July 24, 2009
With all the nuance of a fist to the groin, ... (it's) the kind of forgettable film that isn't impossible to enjoy but that only a Cena fan could truly love.
March 30, 2009
Renny Harlin's 12 Rounds satisfies, on the most primitive level, the expectations for a second-rate action flick.

12 Rounds is an occasionally exciting but always empty action movie experience.
September 01, 2009
Heavy on stunts but light on plausibility, humor, surprise, visual ingenuity or psychological depth.
March 30, 2009
12 Rounds is the unholy stepchild of Die Hard with a Vengeance and Speed, starring a man whose lack of range makes Steven Seagal seem nuanced by comparison.
