Story: FAVELA, the first instalment 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.
Likes : Falcon Rising is the kind of movie that is easy to sell with an action packed trailer, although watching the film is slight lets down as this film doesn't really show that much action other than a few fight scene's that are brilliantly choreograph.
Lateef Crowder Brazilian martial artist your know from Tekken movie, doesn't really have much of a role in speaking terms but show off some pretty awesome martial arts moves in this film.
The movie its self starts with the usual story line of the hero character having some past issue & someone that cares about them until that person come involved in something that put them in danger, the hero set out to investigate which put them in the cross fire of the villain of the story that end it a battle.
Ive got to hand it to Michael Jai white even at the age 46 he still in shape & still moves the way he was when it was younger with the martial arts which still looks awesome on screen with the fighting, although i feel he should be given better role in bigger film's. This is clear one of he better film in a while since blood & bone, but i still think he should be give a better film career, with better scripted films.
One good thing about this film is the fact the fight scene aren't filmed with the shaky camera effects, no cut scene or no implied deaths, which make a film interest to watch, special when it come to fight scene i prefer fights in films you can see the action without the shakiness which is refreshing.As it not a bad film just not a brilliant film.
Dislikes : Some of the acting & pace at time can be questionable, i really feel they should give Michael jai white better role with people that can act because his performance is kind of let down by others in some of the film they get him to do.
Overall : Great fight scene, some what good acting, pace is slightly slow with the lack of action.
Rating: 4.3 out of 5 for entertainment / 6.7 out of 10 for storyline
