The System was more brawn than brains and it could be argued very strongly that no brains were involved at all in what is a mediocre action film. Either Jeremy Priven had too much spare time on his hands or he needed a bit of cash very quickly. He's far better than this.
The System does have its fair share of action that action seekers will probably enjoy short term but will quickly be forgotten, even the prison scenes weren't really anything new.
Acting was good by Priven as one would expect. Tyrese Gibson, who many will recognise from The Fast & Furious franchise also plays his role well in what is a dull outing that lacks freshness and any new ideas. A drug bust that goes wrong and those above getting the small guy to do the undercover work is something we have had on our screens since screens were invented.
There is a debate to be had that The System should be called The Cistern instead, but, and it's big but, if you want to be entertained for an hour and a half this will do, but you will hold your head in your hands for some time afterwoulds.
