CheerupSilver Very Cool!!!

Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

Cassandra Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Prismark10 End Game certainly has a star studded cast with Cuba Gooding Jr, James Woods and Burt Reynolds. Thankfully for your eyesight Reynolds is only in for a few scenes because he looks awful with his plastic surgery and bad wig.Gooding is a secret service agent who was injured as the President was assassinated. A pushy journalist uncovers a conspiracy and people start dying. She teams up with Cuba and discover that there are CIA black ops people involved and people close to the President might have been involved in the assassination.End Game is never going to rival Three days of the Condor or The Parallax View. The writing is no great shakes, the photography looks cheap. Yet the cast actually make it watchable. Its rather a decent time waster. The film drops a few clues as it goes along and there is some nice action sequences.

p-stepien Cuba Gooding Jr just hasn't had the best of script servicing after his rise to fame. Despite being an enticing personality this movie is I'm afraid not salvageable.The whole premise for the story is bordering on stupid. But it is nowhere as moronic as ultra secret service agents planting bombs to kill off an elderly lady and a homeless man. One would have thought they could come up with something at least the slightest bit subtle. But nope - big blasts and machine-gunning police cops in broad daylight is apparently very CIA slash secret agent type behaviour.The acting starts out on a real low and even Cuba looks dredge-awful... Everyone else in movie is at best unmemorable, but Angie Harmon makes a great effort at acting out of a paper bag. Unfortunately she fails miserably... but at least she tried.Nothing really good to say about this movie. It was trite, repetitive and needless, but well... it is watchable. With must count for something.

chriscopp I guess I'm the only one reviewing this excellent movie who thought it was very good, up there with the best of the conspiracy movies. I thought the script was well written, the dialogue pared down to essentials, characterisation of the protagonists was well thought out and the actors were all top notch, the directing was snappy and economical with a near documentary feel...shot on a grainy film..this added to the gritty feel of the movie (not face powder as one guy on the message board states...it's film grain!!).The plot was slowly revealed and the twists and turns unravelled nicely. A surprise ending....sexy leads and a cooking music score all added to my enjoyment, it held my attention and suspended my disbelief.A bluddy good film!

guilfisher-1 I blame it on the writing first, directing second and finally some pretty bad performances. Cuba Gooding Jr. walking through the film with no focus, James Woods, a fine actor wasted in a nothing role; Anne Archer, who I like in much of her work, hardly in this and when she is, is not very good; David Selby wasted in more ways than one; Burt Reynolds makes an appearance and that's all. The worst of all is Angie Harmon as a snoopy reporter who would never get away with what she does in this. I was so happy when she gets beat up near the end. A well deserved smack in the mouth could have happened earlier in the film to shut this female up. Poking around getting others killed and not blinking an eye. She was just awful and ruined what was any chance of this being passable. Arrggghh!
