   Roger Ebert February 07, 1986. Tweet. Now streaming on: Powered by JustWatch. "F/X" is Hollywood shorthand for "effects," or special effects, the art form that creates bullet holes and gaping wounds, fake shotgun blasts and severed limbs. In the movie, Bryan Brown plays a special effects man whose customized truck is a mobile effects lab.

   Does f/x have special effects?

   • The movie, which looks as if it had been made on an A-picture budget, has a lot of the zest one associates with special-effects-filled B-pictures. F/X doesn't have the surprises when it needs them. [8 Feb 1986, p.C7] A movie special effects man is hired to fake a real-life mob killing for a witness protection plan, but finds his own life in danger.

   Is f/x a good movie?

   • In the hallowed Hollywood tradition of mindless flash, F/X turns the suspension of disbelief into airy entertainment. [7 Feb 1986, p.D3] The action sequences are well staged and the twists and turns of the convoluted plot will keep viewers guessing. A competent and unpretentious entertainment.

   Is 'f/x' a good thriller?

   • The irony of "F/X," which is a very good thriller indeed, is that it avoids the pitfall of so many thrillers; it doesn't degenerate into a mindless display of special effects. The effects in this film just happen to be the ways the hero has of expressing himself.

   F/X is a movie I had been hearing about for years, so I finally buckled down and rented it, and I was pretty surprised. It's a good, suspenseful movie with nice effects, a decent story, and some good performances (except for the girl who plays the effects assistant, though she's not on-screen a lot).
