Cathardincu Surprisingly incoherent and boring

Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

bkoganbing Ever since Heathers, made when Christian Slater was a bubblegum pop idol, he's specialized in quirky roles. They can be quirky psychotic like Heathers or quirky lovable as Kuffs. In Pursued Slater falls firmly on the psychotic side. Parts like these allow actors to pull out all the stops and Slater does it with gusto. He's on some kind of anti-psychotic drugs and I'd hate to see him when he's not taking the meds. He's a corporate recruiter who gets hired by companies to find the best executives. Sometimes they're an easy sell and sometimes not. But one thing though, Slater never takes no for an answer.His latest project Gil Bellows has a stubborn streak of loyalty to the company he works for and its president Michael Clarke Duncan. He does not believe that Slater has resorted to murder in the past to obtain his objective. He then gets good and sufficient reason to believe it. Slater does not like to lose at anything, he sees corporate head hunting as a blood sport and wants his trophy every time.If you're a fan of Christian Slater this film should not be missed. Director Kristoffer Tabori had a loose rein on Slater throughout this production and he ran with it.It's overacting to the max, but the part calls for it.

tsar_ina This movie is such a big bore. I failed to understand why would a director drag such a story and pictured a real life drama in the most unrealistic way. From the beginning to start Mr. Slater is apparently attempted to be projected as a terrorizing opponent to the good corporate culture. It is so sick that the sequence of story dragged and ended up with couple of killings (Are the cops gone mute ?) which has no effect to the society. Oh I forgot to remember that the story began with a killing. Sick. A total bore. Please do not pursue to watch this movie. It is sicker than what you expect. Stay away and spend your time somewhat more useful. I am sorry. Have a good one.

davidphogan74 The movie has its interesting points, but the writers left a lot of bad gaps in the plot. Ben Keats is a character who is too laid back, has no spine, and is apparently not very intelligent. It becomes quite an unbelievable story given that he is supposed to be one of the best management people in the United States.The pace of the movie is quite slow, the twists are not unexpected, and basically its a movie about someone who is a complete pushover playing opposite a great Christian Slater role. He's comparable to his role in Very Bad Things, only the supporting cast is not even comparable.This movie really has no redeeming qualities, and I somewhat wish I could just have the two hours of my life back that I lost. It's not Bellows' fault, the character is just terribly written.

Pratyush I 'pursued' this movie with low expectations but was presently surprised.It is a fast paced thriller with a good flow. The pursuer will do any thing to get the pursued recruited. Good acting from every one in general with specially good one from Ben in the movie.One question is why the wife is so immature to not trust her husband and find it good when a stranger keeps giving free gifts. Also, the police can be brought on if some one is stalked the way it is sown in the movie.Its a neat movie which slowly goes into the violent aspect without being totally unreal. Good editing is of of the strong points. Over all, if you are looking for a movie which would give mild thrill without testing your brain too much and yet be slick and cool, its very much perfect.
