If the film had focused on its set pieces and not made time for dialogue scenes, One Shot would be a helluva ride. But there’s no getting around the fact that these are cardboard characters, even by action movie standards.

What are people saying?
What are critics saying?
One Shot is merely an experiment in filmmaking chutzpah, and a failed one at that.
One Shot manages to avoid seeming an overly schematic technical stunt. The mayhem depicted isn’t always fully convincing, but it does have a certain live-wire edge.
The story? It’s a patchwork mess.
