“Armed Response” (*1/2 out of four) was an utterly generic action thriller starring Wesley Snipes as the leader of a team of highly trained government operatives (Anne Heche, Dave Annable and others) who are trapped inside an isolated military compound when their system shuts down and they have to fight to stay alive and gradually uncover what killed the previous team who was there. Story gradually gets duller and talkier as it goes along and is deficient in thrills or scares. It’s routine duds like this that gradually killed Snipes’ career and I don’t know what the hell Anne Heche is doing in this. Bizarrely, Gene Simmons has a minor throwaway role as a prisoner at the beginning but he should probably kiss his acting career goodbye by this point.
