Reviews:

I don’t think many can appreciate the difficulty in making this film.
It’s called One Shot because they only have one shot to stop a terrorist plot, but also, because the entire movie was filmed in one take! That takes a lot of work and skill to create and I’m sure is exhausting, yet this is novice filmmaker James Nunn’s first writing credit, and his 5th full length feature film directorial credit. And he did not disappoint.

At first it will feel like you’re behind a player in Call of Duty, and then it’s like you’re right there, behind the action, turning your head to whoever is talking or shooting. It’s kinda epic and magical when you really think about it. It’s non stop energy, excitement and suspense. Obviously the pacing is fast, so the 96 min runtime flies by quickly.

Then add the excellent tactical action choreography, cinematography and special effects, plus the outstanding, convincing and commanding performances ny all – especially Scott Adkins, and you’ll be on the edge of your seat the entire time. I’m pretty sure I forgot to breath a bunch of times.

My only complaint was that I wanted more story and not as much shooting, which seemed to be the majority of the film. But nevertheless, if you’re into this genre, you will not be disappointed. Hats off to Nunn for giving us this amazing action film. It’s a well deserved 8/10 from me.

One Shot Hits More Often Than It Misses
The premise is the gimmick in “Green Street 3: Never Back Down” director James Nunn’s white-knuckled, adrenalin-driven, combat epic “One Shot,” starring Scott Adkins, Ryan Philippe, and Ashley Greene, about a squad of Navy SEALS who struggle to avert a terrorist bomb attack on Washington, D. C. Basically, this nerve-racking, 97-minute firefight, with obligatory dialogue scenes, relies on ‘in camera’ editing. The filmmakers orchestrate “One Shot” as one long continuous take to intensify its suspense and tension. By and large, Nunn and his handheld camera crew have succeeded at their nimble task. Occasionally, the camera takes on a life of its own. For example, hustling behind two Jihadists into a building, lenser Jonathan Iles pans away like a rubbernecker for a glance at a slain soldier. Not only did Nunn choreograph this tense, nail-biting yarn in 20 days, but he also has managed to preserve the illusion of spontaneity. Maintaining relentless mobility, the third-person camera drifts around the cast, pushing-in for close-ups and then backing off for wider angles. Not surprisingly, the firefight scenes resemble a first-person shooter (FPS) videogame as heroes and villains frag foes. Alas, prepare for some camera jiggle. No, “One Shot” shouldn’t trigger bouts of projectile hurling, like “The Blair Witch Project” (1999), “Open Water” (2003), and “Cloverfield” (2008). Nevertheless, this gimmick has drawbacks, especially if an actor blows a line or the lenser stumbles. Mind you, “One Shot” isn’t the first film to appropriate this stunt. Alfred Hitchcock pioneered the technique in the James Stewart crime saga “Rope” (1948), while German director Sebastian Schipper used it splendidly in his 140-minute “Victoria” (2015). Later, the Oscar-winning Best Picture “Birdman” (2014) with Michael Keaton and the World War I film “1917” (2019) won acclaim for their use of this single-take format. Never does Nunn let this ‘real-time’ perspective take the edge off “One Shot.” Actually, the kinetic energy that the roaming camera generates enhances the momentum.

This explosive, bullet-riddled actioneer unfolds on a remote island at a clandestine, black site, prison facility comparable to Guantanamo Bay. The worst of the worst terrorists are confined here for as long as it takes. “One Shot” begins aboard a Navy Blackhawk helicopter flying to this island. We get our first glimpse of Lieutenant Jake Harris (Scott Adkins of “Eliminators”) and his three-man squad. A wet behind the ears CIA analyst, Zoe Anderson (Ashley Greene of “Twilight”) accompanies them. Since she has never flown in a chopper, she suffers from airsickness. One SEAL shrugs, “She barfs. I ain’t moppin’ it up.” As they approach the island, Lt. Harris briefs his squad again. They have come to pick up a detainee, so Zoe can rush him back to Washington, D. C. “Time is of the essence,” Jake adds, and the detainee is “a person of interest in a time sensitive matter.” Nunn and freshman scenarist Jamie Russell feeds us breadcrumbs of information about this mysterious detainee, Amin Mansur (Waleed Elgadi of “Four Lions”), without divulging the mission until the film’s final fifteen minutes. No sooner have our heroes landed than they encounter an antagonistic prison commander, Jack Yorke (Ryan Philippe of “The Way of the Gun”), who refuses initially to turn Mansur over to them. Yorke complains the CIA has exceeded its authority. Nevertheless, Zoe hands him the official release papers, but Yorke doesn’t budge. Meantime, Jake and Zoe visit Amin, who swears he isn’t a terrorist, just a law-abiding British citizen. Zoe informs him Her Majesty’s Government has revoked his passport and no longer considers him a citizen. While Jake and his SEALs are outside awaiting Zoe and her prisoner, a large military cargo truck surprises them and smashes through the black site prison’s front gates. Military Police open fire as dozens of well-armed Jihadists pile out of the vehicle. The Jihadists storm the prison, blow up Harris’ helicopter, mow down everybody on sight, while our heroes retreat to the HQ bunker. Running low on ammo, Harris and company dig in because the relief choppers aren’t due for another 30 minutes.

Martial arts actor Scott Adkins relies primarily on his accuracy with a variety of automatic weapons as well as his knack with a knife. “Twilight” film franchise fans should recognize Ashley Greene; the actress played the vampiress Alice Cullen in all five films. Cast as a green CIA analyst on her first mission in the field, she resolves to prove her pluck in the face of death. Earlier, Greene co-starred with Adkins in the thriller “Accident Man” (2018). “Cruel Intentions” actor Ryan Philippe, who plays the feisty warden constitutes as much an adversary for our heroes as the bloodthirsty Jihadists. These dastards are shown executing unarmed soldiers and innocent civilian secretaries. Contrary to what Yorke believes, these Jihadists haven’t come to rescue Mansur. They want to silence him. Some aspects of “One Shot” are fuzzy. Never are we told how these terrorists got onto the island. Inexplicably, their numbers seem to multiply, too. Jess Liaudin of “Maleficent: Mistress of Evil” is convincingly cast as the villainous French Algerian Jihadist leader. The scene where he recruits one of his minions as a suicide bomber is quite chilling. Shrewdly, Nunn doesn’t explore the ambiguities of Mansur’s quandary. Blind from grief after a U. S. drone attack killed his son, this Englishman started selling withdrawn CAT scanners to the Jihadists who salvaged radioactive materials from them. Lensed entirely on location at the decommissioned “Bentwaters Park” British RAF base in Suffolk, England, “One Shot” qualifies as an above-average potboiler.
