Verdict on The Bouncer

The Bouncer is an action thriller following a bouncer for a gangster who steps in to protect the latest victim. He goes on the run to find safety while being hunted down by the gangster and his men.

This movie gives us the traditional action idea of a reluctant hero doing the right thing. It lets John Ozuna show his fighting skills and Costas Mandylor is always entertaining to watch as a twisted villain. This struggles to be anything more than a simple late-night action movie but a short runtime makes for a good time.
