Known everwhere else as "S.P.L.", Killzone is a competent Action flick, with a decent story. There is not much to hate here, but I didn't feel like it was the "must see" cult classic hit that it seems to get lots of hype for. Other than the movie being pretty clean cut and filled with icons of the genre, I just can't figure out why this movie is such a big hit. I think in some ways the clean cut, almost hollywood nature of the flick is probably what turned me off. The movie almost seems like it has no soul, no grit under it's teeth. Basically it is too "clean". Like a rock album pro-tooled up to sound perfect, this movie didn't leave any lasting impact on me. The story would have fit well in an episode of the Shield, and the action bits weren't terribly entertaining.
I enjoyed it, but it left zero lasting fondness. I wouldn't show it to friends.
