Do you want to know what is like you are a man? Well, the most superficial introductory that you can currently find on Tubi, is called Life on the line. He was appointed in Texas, and it includes John Travolta using his best (reading: not with this wonderful) a southern tone, Life on the lineWhich apparently depends on real events, casts a look at the harsh acrobat who placed … their lives on the line.

Unfortunately, the double title of the title is likely to be the most intelligent in this movie that swells with unnecessary B audio, full of jam with every disasters that can push it to 97 minutes.

The main story

Life on the line We first offer us to beau ginner (John TravoltaAn old school, Badis player Badas with a heart of gold works one of the most dangerous jobs in the country. He did not remain with this profession, which is what remains with their wife (Kate Bosworth), who left without the parents after that day hashish, who was chasing a previous tragedy on the work site that killed his brother Danny (Tae Olson).

The having to re -update a huge re -update of the entire power network in a very short period of time before the storm season Life on the lineBeau races and its energy around the clock to ensure safety standards are met at the highest level as they risk their lives while working under a huge amount of pressure.

Side stories

if Life on the line It was narrated a simple story about the blue collar workers who work through an impossible and dangerous task, it will be a strong movie because it will be able to explore all the colored characters behind a profession that applies life, but instead, we get a lot of conspiracies B that does not leave any room to develop personality.

The first, and the most important conspiracy B can be said in Life on the line Involve Devon SawaDucan, her ex -boyfriend of Billy, who takes care of the profession after she learned that she is leaving to college. Billy has other plans, as Dantan reveals that she is pregnant with his child, which is annoying for Beau who wants to see her becoming more than the wife of the line man. Of course, this conflict between Denkan and Biu, who often enter into small networks on the workplace around this developing family dynamic.

The two above all of this Life on the line Needs, but two side stories are presented more than the world looks slightly larger in the movie, but they are completely unnecessary.

First, we have Ron (Matt Palfor), one of the former Billy friends who show affection by intimidating his interest in his love. Second, we got acquainted with the new couple who move across the street from Beau and Bailey, Carlain (Jolly Benz(Ryan Robbins), which was the last of the old warriors in the war began working for the energy company. Pelly Carlin, who clearly sleeps when Eugene is at work because the war “changed him”, which causes frequent running with Ron whenever they come out.

Less planning, more work

One aspect Life on the line It is a difficult position but in the situation, and how his excessive behavior towards Billy is a contradiction with this position regarding its relationship with Denkan. Many conversations reveal with his crew that he is totally tuna, but we never see anything that proves this point. After making a hard day, when everyone goes out for a round of drinks, the best thing we get is that beau is publishing a battle with a loud shepherd in the bar, which ends with the speed that began when Beau says this option with a handshake and moves to their lives, and that the righteous shepherd does not want to know the option B.

The hostile relationship that beau and Duncan on the future of Bailey is the real conflict in Life on the lineAnd every other side plot is forced to reach his head in the third action in order for these relationships to be fulfilled, which is not done because the workboard must go to a very specific place that now depends on a decision in these side stories.

Life flow on the line

While I admire the intention behind Life on the line Because it was supposed to glorify one of the most difficult jobs in the country with the interest in many men who lost their lives, one references on Spoiled tomatoes Its summary is completely with, “The One A” of films “depends on real events” that gives you a distinctive feeling that real events deserve better. ”

What could have been a painful story that is separated from a blue -collar man trying to do it properly through his family that was found, such as the amplified chaos of the auxiliary figures who do not lead the story forward until they are imposed on the scenario. To give credit when it deserve Life on the line It is estimated at a budget of $ 12 million, but it is very few and far apart to be effective given the amount of the unnecessary exhibition required to tell his story.

Until writing these lines, you can broadcast Life on the line Free on Tubi.
