Daniel Zirilli likes to direct movies, and he’s made a large amount of them in recent years, with nondescript titles such as “Acceleration,” “Invincible,” and “The Asian Connection.” He’s a VOD helmer trying to make a career out of action endeavors, with his latest being “Hollow Point,” which intends to offer viewers a critical look at the police and justice system of Los Angeles, but primarily offers quickie fight choreography and shootouts around the empty spaces of the city. It’s not without some low-wattage thrills, but “Hollow Point” isn’t the intellectual exercise it initially positions itself to be, finding the screenplay inching away from challenging ideas on law and order, more comfortable with snoozy scenes of confrontation.
