there's nothing imposing or John McClane-like about Willis; It's oceans away from Bruce Willis' "Die Hard" salad days and likely the worst film of 2021. "Apex" should have been called "Nadir"
a tedious genre exercise; Cheap and cheerless sci-fi action thriller pits cunning prisoner Bruce Willis against wealthy hunters in dreary genre retread
a science fiction thriller that is tedious and derivative in terms of narrative and execution; Mindlessly stretched out to pad the runtime, "Apex" is a stupendously dull, feeble ghost of what a gritty Bruce Willis action starrer could have been
"Apex" doesn't have any tension or compelling acts of violence; As with other offerings in Willis's recent oeuvre, "Apex" is mindless and motionless, inspiring viewers to simply fixate on the star, who isn't present when his back is to the camera
