any real gags. It was just actors and the crew talking about how much fun that they had on set and how they become like a family. It isn’t a bad feature, just titled very poorly. It would have probably been a better feature to accompany a movie that wasn’t, you know, horrendous.
Now we’ve come to the most advertised feature on the DVD. Every commercial for it has advertised the two separate alternate endings. Even considering how much I hated the film in theaters, alternate endings are always an interesting feature to see how they could have had things come to a close. The problem is that all three ending options were ultimately the same. The only thing that changed was the person that Danny and Molly encounter after the helicopter crash. In the theatrical they see a couple by a pool and in one alternative ending it is the same two people with a line tagged on or a security guard.
To sum it all up, 12 Rounds in the theater or on DVD is just a bundle of disappointment. You’ll see what’s behind ever turn in the film and that isn’t including the times when what’s going on is entirely generic. John Cena’s acting hasn’t changed at all since The Marine and for people who haven’t seen that its as bad as you would assume it is. There really isn’t any reason for this film to exist other than to give ten year old boys a movie they’ll love and learn to hate as they get older.
