Watch Never Die Alone For Free

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Plenty to Like, Plenty to Dislike

Fantastic!

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Considering DMX's previous movie fare – which typically paired him with martial arts stars – I was expecting this to be an action flick. Well, in some ways it is – there are a ton of bloody shoot-outs and it partly follows the classic revenge drama formula – but in other ways, NEVER DIE ALONE surprises, exploring DMX's character in some detail and taking a downbeat look at the life of a drug dealer. DMX takes a role a little heavier than he's used to, and he's very good in the part, a really hateful character that you can nevertheless understand. The supporting cast is also pretty good, excepting David Arquette, who's hopeless as usual.Sadly, NEVER DIE ALONE's subject matter is ultimately depressing, whilst the revenge drama is just too clichéd to be any good. The only good scene in the whole movie is the bit where a thug finds himself distracted by dollar notes which come floating down the alleyway towards him – an original and fun moment in a film otherwise devoid of laughter.

This is a story about revenge. If it were about somebody named Hamlet or Oedipus or Corleone then the violence would be described as in service to the art of the story. In this movie two young men, one black the other white, get caught up in a story of illegality and revenge. The two wind up tied together around the story of a third man, who one tries to rescue and one kills.This is not a great movie; the soundtrack is predictable and the pacing is uneven. Still, when the dead guy starts talking, the viewer's perception changes, and that kind of moment indicates something is happening in the script and on the screen that is important. "He had this nobility..." the white character enthuses about the dead dealer to his black girlfriend. She is less than impressed. This is a movie where no one is noble: why is the white character hanging with a black girlfriend? Does he like her or does he need "street cred." If race wasn't a part of this movie, then this would be a movie about characters who take a series of missteps and pay for them. However, in the reviews of this movie, because the main characters are black, it is a movie about depravity. Like the narrative of victims of Hurricane Katrina innocence or guilt... salvation or damnation... is determined by the color of skin. For a viewer who doesn't see skin color first, this is a well- acted, disturbing revenge story.

It was my birthday and I was snowed in. I was bored to tears, nothing was on TV. So I went to one of those Direct channels and picked 2 movies. One was a Man Apart with Vin Deisal a terrible movie and the other was this movie. I was pleasantly surprised. THis was a very entertaining movie. Not a Oscar winner but very good. It is about a ex drug kingpin name King David who is back in town trying to repent for his sins. Well he gets killed before he can. No surprise because the first thing we see on the screen is him in a casket. The story picks up because when he was killed a reporter( David Arquette) was at the scene and tried to help him. In return King David gives him all of his worldly possessions, one being a stack of cassettes King David made of his past life. His tapes are the story. We get flashbacks of his former life. Yeah he was a son of a gun. A man who obviously hates women so much that he makes them into dope fiends, basically he turns them out. I actually knew guys like that. One he falls in love with but he is upset because he considers it being a weak trait and he rebels against the girlfriend, who seems to have a good head on he shoulder until she asks to snort some coke. You see these are the girls bad guys love and the guys good girls love. In any case she threatens him at one time to go to the cops. Dumb move because earlier we saw what happened to a woman who had made the same threat. I am not going to give away the twist. The movie was very good. DMX is good and so was his supporting players. I really wasn't expecting much but I got a lot. I would recommend this movie to anyone who wants to be entertained.

When reading about the plot of this movie upon its release, the concept although extremely familiar sounded promising, even though DMX was involved. Although DMX's music has been very well received, there is a good chance that his movie career will not be of a similar level of praise. DMX plays King David a man who returns after 10 years, only to die. David Arquette is the man who pieces together the fragments of King David's life. Within the few minutes you can tell this is different from your usual Hip-hop kind of movies with fast editing and lots of serious bling within the few minutes. Continuing with the manner of the opening half hour, the movie could have been much better than it was. It is obvious that the movie is a vehicle to glorify DMX. This is part of the problem, the other problem is that the movie is a mess. When going into recap although interesting at times, the movie doesn't develop, instead we have DMX in his usual role. There is no depth to the character of King David, we have no real remorse shown, no character, no emotion. There are elements in the story that could be involved much more but instead the camera cuts to shots of drug usage, some sex and some violence. The thoughts of DMX come out as if they're heavily lifted from somewhere, and the thoughts are not really backed up. David Arquette although used very little, does not offer anything to the movie. Although a very likable actor, he has not really given a stellar performance in a movie yet.Never Die Alone is much better than a lot of the rubbish that fills the screens nowadays but it lacks so much. There is potential but it is never explored. My rating-4/10
