“Armor” is the kind of low-budget endeavor that makes you appreciate professional actors who demonstrate what professional means. They know the movie’s bad, but despite the stifling ennui that must descend upon them, they give it their best shot, regardless. Integrity is what you want to see from an A-lister.
