Storyline
FAVELA, the first installment in the CODENAME: FALCON franchise, introduces former marine John "Falcon" Chapman, a dark anti-hero driven by guilt and suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder, who will destroy himself unless given something else to destroy - a useful weapon-of-last-resort for the U.S. State Department. When Chapman's sister is brutally attacked while on assignment in Brazil, Chapman flies into Sao Paulo to track down her assailants, quickly entering the city's seedy underbelly and discovering a world of drugs, the sex trade, corrupt cops, and organized crime syndicates battling for control.Movie Reviews
This film wasn't as
good as I thought it was going to be. I got this film after seeing a
trailer for it on IMDb and I also had the film "Blood and Bone" in mind.
Both films star Michael Jai White. Although "Blood and Bone" was simple
and predictable it was pretty good, unlike this film. There were a few
good action scenes in this film but not enough to compensate for the
lack of a deep story line and strong plot. John 'Falcon' Chapman
(Michael Jai White) is an ex-marine who goes to Brazil to find and fight
the Yakuza gang who violently attacked his sister. See, simple but it
could have been way more effective. The acting in this film wasn't bad
but it wasn't the best. Some people like Laila Ali should keep their day
jobs. I'm not throwing shade I'm just telling it from an artistic view.
Some of the acting was a bit stale at times and not very convincing. I
just expected more from this film. Now don't get me wrong, this film
wasn't so bad to where I couldn't stand it. It's worth watching if you
have absolutely nothing else to watch or do.
