Jackson perform throughout the entire 90 minutes.  He\u2019s the star and is literally in every scene.  Without cheating and looking on IMDb.com, it\u2019s tough to recall the last the time the cool actor had to carry a flick in a lead capacity.  So seeing him show, or attempt to show, some range in his depiction of a former criminal looking to go on the straight-n-narrow has an instant appeal early on.<\/p>\n<p>Initially, the story is going through the fundamental motions of all these types of \u201clooking for redemption, but can\u2019t escape the past\u201d tales.  Mainly driven by dialogue, the script does entail a few interesting convos as Jackson reaches out, and is confronted, by people from his past.  And during these chats, this is how we get to know the man, who was obviously respected in the criminal underworld.<\/p>\n<p>Once the standard \u201creason\/motivation to not go back to his old-ways\u201d is introduced, via a young working-girl (Ruth Negga), the story begins to crawl even though the screenplay is choppy.  And frankly, this leads to the story losing audiences\u2019 interest.  But then, there\u2019s a mid-script twist that wakes one right back up and changes the dynamic of storytelling.<\/p>\n<p>Now while the twist is inserted just to enable Jackson to perform the often alluded to \u201cgrift\u201d \u2013 con a white-collar criminal (Tom Wilkinson in cameo mode) out of millions \u2013 sadly, the audience barely gets a glimpse of the planning stages.  From there on, it\u2019s just a montage of shots showing a ponderous Jackson reflecting and walking around a fancy apartment.  There\u2019s no engaging <em>Ocean Eleven\u2019s<\/em> scheming sessions to be seen; we don\u2019t get any idea on how this will get pulled off except for a vague dinner table discussion with a couple other people involved (Luke Kirby &#038; Deborah Kara Unger); and even with another subtle twist right before, and during, the climatic showdown \u2013 which is as basic as one could get \u2013 the payoff is about as tasty and satisfying as eating cardboard wafers during church communion.<\/p>\n<p>Even though the story gets across its point and the acting is fairly decent, the scattered and mostly uneventful screenplay dilutes the entertainment value.  Seeing a few people get tortured and shot by refined criminals is one thing; but then complimenting that with Jackson just slogging around and raising his voice once in a while can only carry this so far.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, <em>The Samaritan<\/em> needed assistance in the on-screen storytelling and editing department.  It\u2019s too vague and simplistic to lure an audience in all the way.  There are some details, which if properly expounded upon, would have enabled this to be a more engrossing watch.  It\u2019s not painful, but it definitely didn\u2019t appear to be final cut ready.  <\/p>\n<p>In other words, be glad I was your Samaritan and took this cinematic bullet for you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Technical:  D<\/p>\n<p>Story:  D+<\/p>\n<p>Acting:  B<\/p>\n<p>Overall:  D+<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_94036\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-94036\" style=\"width: 570px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/TheSamaritan.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/TheSamaritan.jpg\" alt=\"The Samaritan\" title=\"The Samaritan\" width=\"570\" height=\"307\" class=\"size-full wp-image-94036\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/TheSamaritan.jpg 570w, https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/TheSamaritan-300x161.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 570px) 100vw, 570px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-94036\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Don&#039;t Jackson, you did all you could my man.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Title: The Samaritan Director: David Weaver The Samaritan allows audience the pleasure, well, depending on your opinion of the guy, to see Samuel L.
