Surprisingly incoherent and boring
Simply A Masterpiece
Beautiful, moving film.
Absolutely brilliant
Unfortunately, but this is the last movie of Chuck's career in the cinema. And, as a big fan of Norris, I was glad to watch this movie, named "Cutter". It's the movie, which full of action, interesting episodes and cool fights. I noticed, that this's very nice action for last Chuck Norris's project.Finally, "Cutter" is a typical motion picture of 80's, but with something modern, fashion and cool parts. Norris as strong and fast, as in his "Walker Texas ranger" TV series, so I pleased to look at him and to see, how he kicks asses of bad guys and, for sure, his last fight scene.So, I advice to watch to You this wonderful and really interesting movie, especially, if You're a fan of Carlos Rey Norris.10 out of 10!..
I bought The Cutter in a bargain bin at a place her called Rogers Video for 5$. Chuck has never been known for his acting ability,but I am a fan of his action movies,so I decided to give it a chance. 85% of the time, I was bored by the lack of action,there are barely any fights,the story isn't very interesting and even Chuck himself looked bored. You have two great legit Martial Artist's in Chuck Norris and Dainel Bernhardt,why not give the fans a special fight,instead of giving us the crap they did. I was just so disappointed in it all,how on earth could they screw that one up?. The story itself is routine and unimaginative,Diamonds??..We've seen this story too many times before and done better at that. Did Chuck need a decent paycheck that badly?..this sure looked like a paycheck film,I didn't see the point of this film being made what so ever. I really should stop watching all these DTV action films,but every once in a while you find a surprising gem in a batch,however The Cutler is definitely not one of them. If you wanna see some good Chuck films,perhaps you should go back to his glory days and start there.Performances. Chuck Norris looks asleep for the most part of the film. Why did he make this film,if he didn't care about it?. He looked so bored half the time,only showing up for a couple of fight scenes. The charisma is non existent,his dialog is awful..what happened Chuck?. Joanna Pacula is OK. She's pretty but not much else. Daniel Bernhardt is a well known martial artist, But he plays it much too over the top as the villain. He was wooden and his potentially classic showdown with Chuck is never delivered,what a shame.Bottom Line. The Cutter is yet,another terrible DTV Action film. No thrills,no excitement,boring dialog and amateurish acting. Not recommended unless you want to cure your insomnia.3/10
The acting in this movie was surprisingly good and very believable. Of course, it was fairly Hollywoodish in some parts, but I personally enjoyed it. If you are a fan of action, then this film is definitely for you. It has everything in that regard from guns to martial arts. Chuck Norris does a fine job of fighting and he and Ms. Pacula do a great job together uncovering who has kidnapped her uncle and why, but there is no romance at all between them. It does have a historical point to it as well, which I thought was interesting. I loved how it all tied back into the Judaism, that made it interesting if you are a fan of history at all. Some things happened way too easily for the characters, but some of it was believable. Spokane Washington is where the film was set, and coming from WA myself, I think that they could have filmed somewhere else that was smaller and had a far more interesting film with more scenery. All in all, this film was interesting and if you want to see an action packed Chuck Norris movie, this one is for you!
Chuck Norris finally got this project completed and Norris's acting seems uptight at times but does give a genuine facade that he's got a few films left in him. His physic is Total Gym Norris as his first real big production since Top Dog. Top Dog got released due to Sidekicks success or the potential of, as the studio was going for the same demographic. The theme of Nazi Germany is implied with the cutter that Norris's character goes looking for after the jeweler's daughter comes to Norris since he's been missing. The fight scenes are authentic and show that Norris can still move well, compared to Seagall who can't even stand on one leg and do rapid fires. The bus fight scene is very well done as its result is something you don't see much of. The obligatory fight finale is better than I thought. It's definitely choreographed but hey if it wasn't someone might get hurt. Overall, the production quality had 1980's written all over it, but sometimes it's good to nostalgic. Norris still has the confidence and his popularity seems to re emerged on the spoof level. It could do his career good look what it did for William Shatner.
