Expect the unexpected in the wild and wicked Til Death Do Us Part. The movie will have you pinned to the screen from its calm beginning to the roller coaster ride to revenge. The story gets predictable, but it’s the show thriller that makes it all worth watching. If you like a movie where graceful women are as vicious and devilish men, you are in the right theater auditorium.
A Woman (Natalie Burn) and a Man (Ser’Darius Blain) are faking a honeymoon to finish one last job for the syndicate they belong to. Flash to their wedding where they are now the Bride and the Groom. The Groom is waiting for her to walk down the aisle, but things don’t go well when the Bride gets cold feet and bolts. Not happy about it all, the Groom sends his 6 Groomsmen and Best Man to find her and bring her back.
But, that’s not going to be an easy task as when the Bride says no, she really means it. Beyond beginning scenes there’s a blood bath more brutal than a rabid dog fight. Bringing the film to the screen, Director Timothy Woodward Jr. puts a lot of action in the an hour and 20 minutes. His never say die depiction uses enough fake blood to fill a ten gallon drum using every bit of the gore till the credits roll. That said however, the dialogue from the groomsmen and best man is delivered by the actors with as much excitement as a turtle fight. But who needs words when the action begins, right?
Starring as the Bride is Natalie Burn (“Black Adams” “The Enforcer” “The Executioners” “Expendables 3”) and she shows her fierce kicking, punching, clawing, stabbing, chopping, slicing and dicing. It’s been her thing as an actress appearing in probably more thrillers than most of Hollywood’s finest female kickass characters. Here she shows her hot blood pulsing vengeance against some very angry groomsmen led by the Best Man (Cam Gigandet).
Til Death Do US Part has not been rated by the MPAA, but think R with a lot of non-stop violence, extreme gore, language throughout and a sex scene. For fans of violent thrillers I give this film 4 out of 5 stars. Especially since I loved Natalie Burn in the role of the Bride.
