Putting aside, the bad reviews, it's definitely on the list, if you like vengeance movies.

Man, if your up for an old school revenge movie then this is it. The best part of this movie is the partnership between Stan (Travolta) and Dennis (Meloni). The banter between the two is just spot on and hilarious. As the movie goes on it really feels like these two have a past and are syncing back up into their old ways. Stan tries to keep Dennis out of it at first but, when Dennis keeps pushing Stan let's him in on the mission and it feels organic. Of course there's some cheesy moments in this movie but, suprisingly there aren't as many as you would expect. Yes, you did expect some cheesy moments or your not too bright... the movie is called 'I Am Wrath' for heavens sake.If your looking for a movie to pass the time, expecting it to be worth watching but forgettable and then suddenly come out pleasantly surprised then check this out. I know I wasn't expecting too much from this movie and ended up loving it. Perfect ending too.My only problem with the movie is there's a clearly significant death around the end of the movie that has no emotional reaction from any characters at any point. I kept waiting to see a funeral or a freak out but it was like the person killed just didn't exist. It was strange.Well worth the watch.

Columbus. Car Manufacture manager Stanley Hill (John Travolta) flies home to Ohio from a job interview. His wife gets toasted in the parking garage, in a city where we have been told, "nothing's random." After identifying the culprit in a police line up, the cops let the killer walk. Well it seems John worked as "the real ghost stuff" and has a friend (Christopher Meloni) who runs a barber shop and black ops operation in Columbus, Ohio...I guess due to the high demand. Once you can get past this and the Botox face, the film becomes a decent vigilante movie.The film is simple. The twists are so overt and so clue heavy, it is hard to even tag them as a twist. The production includes some token religious scene so we can get the title. The banter between partners provides humor. There is plenty of killing by gun fire, hand to hand, knives, and explosions.Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity. Solid vigilante entertainment.

According to Wikipedia, Michael Caine, asked his opinion of "Jaws: The Revenge," is quoted as replying, "I have never seen it, but by all accounts it is terrible. However, I have seen the house that it built, and it is terrific." Well, Caine wanted a house, Maybe John Travolta needed a tweak or two on his jets. It's the only reason I can think of that Travolta took this part

or rather, take the money and fly. Maybe the exhibitors attended a showing of "I Am Wrath." Their response? The movie went straight to video. Actually, the film is not bad if you give it a very long leash. One can figure out the real bad guy within 10 minutes. The whole affair is a hodgepodge of "Death Wish" films (all five of them) the John Wick films, hundreds of buddy type movies, and other genres of films already seen if you are over 18 years old. Maybe the only film "I Am Wrath" has not copied in some form or other is "The Sound of Music."
