Death Sentence

Weekend!
Movie night with home made food, cola and popcorn (Our microwave has a popcorn preset mode!!!).
Different movie wishes, as usual.
United.
Breakfast Club - Awesome movie.

Then.
Watched the trailer for Death Sentence. Looked promising. Sort of psyched we were!
Started to watch it.
And, at first is was promising. Maybe a little bit jumpy storytellingwise and some B-acting here and there, but still intriguing with a well executed parking garage sequence.
But somewhere halfway through something goes terribly wrong. It all falls apart. All credibility and  authenticity goes straight to hell as the movie tries to fit in every single genre there is. A pretty solid revenge driven drama/thriller/action-movie in line with Taken turns into a forky splatter/videogame/grindhouse wannabie where there's absolutely no sympathy for the main character (Kevin Bacon) what so ever.

What went wrong?

Here's some assumtions:

A. The entire production team was swapped out. The new team was led by Uwe Boll.
B. They didn't have a finished script and were running out of time. 
C. Kevin Bacon wanted to shave his head and play Rambo one time before seeing his career come to an end.
