Going by the first reviews, Armor may be one to miss, earning a rare 0% score on Rotten Tomatoes. Critics have notably taken aim at a lack of originality, labelling it "uninspired" and "toothless".
Here's what they've been saying:
Variety
"Sylvester Stallone has seldom played the villain onscreen, and judging from the stolidity of his turn in Armor, it seems unlikely he’s wanted to. That lack of enthusiasm will be echoed by most viewers watching this uninspired action programmer."
RogerEbert.com
"Even at its relatively trim 89-minute runtime, Armor feels padded."
Loud and Clear
"What we have here is a toothless and repetitive thriller that lacks ambition or even basic thrills, and that features Stallone in a thankless, mostly supportive role."
Fandomwire
"When tropes become too common in a movie, it makes the action setpieces feel far less successful. In many moments of Armor, it’s not only predictable, but feels like action movie karaoke."
Blu-ray.com
"Armor is built to be a low-budget endeavor using occasional blasts of action to keep viewers interested in what’s a routine tale of parental guilt and criminal pressure."
Armor is out now in US cinemas. A UK release date is yet to be confirmed.
