I guess there are some statements and pieces of dialogue in there which are supposed to be funny. I cant classify any of that as jokes though.
Too much is just over the top.
Quite impressive cast though. Crappy movie.
Quite an impressive actors lineup.
Quite impressive how entirely shit this movie still has become all because of the impressive leading man...... who keeps being the same character over and over again. And only manages to become more and more annoying each and every movie.
Probably the only good thing about this movie in the first 25 or so minutes is Nathalie Emmanuel.
So... I'm around 26 minutes in and I already hate the stupidity.
First the positive:
Looks of the surroundings and nature in general are superb,
it seems more attention has gone to making some beautiful shots than actually having a proper story and dialogue.
Stupidity in the movie:
- 3 guys with guns, short distance, not one gets a hit of? I never fired a gun in my life, but I am quite confident to do better than these morons.
- car chase scene - wtfff what a bs.
- car chase scene - with a shotgun you shoot a car mirror straight off. for real? thats what you aim for? you even are aiming at all?
- car chase scene - one moment its clear, next moment it is snowing.
- wtf is up with the guy his teeth???
- fall through centimeters thick ice without any apparent reason.
- after going through the ice and fully under, no problem - getting back up and back to the hole and through it without much issue even with the thick winter clothes
- wolf attacks a human boy on his own? just like that? right.
- in general all dialogue is just....... really wtf.
... and this is only after just 26 minutes.
The first 30 minutes could be summarized in around 5 minutes max. Quite disappointing story all in all. I enjoyed the book quite a lot, but this movie is hardly worth the tag of "tom clancy". It doesnt reach the level of complexity anywhere, not even close or by a long shot.
Also not a fan of this woke black washing. John Kelly at least is played by someone with a strong appearance. Especially Greer is a weak character and the whole person does not make any sense either. Not as a black woman military commander in the place of an iconic role as Greer. Ok, at least they changed her name to Karen, but still..... nope. Plus illogical to sent such a high ranking person on a special forces mission to a country where they famously dislike colored people.
Overal this movie is a 6 out of 10 max. And that is being very kind.
Predictable and a bit too easy of making CIA the stupid bad guys (which of course is portrayed by a white guy).
The whole plane crash scene makes very little sense and... well.. too many things make little sense.
This movie just seems to lean heavily on being woke and just use the title of a tom clancy book to attract viewers.
Overal I found the movie entertaining. Lucy Hale was carrying this movie though.
The ending of the movie is disappointing. Too easy. I guess it was this or a happy hollywood ending, but I would have strongly preferred that. Perhaps a happy ending but then some final closing scene where sweet do-good Olivia in the end turned into a aggressive freaky b*tch when a guy would have tried to charm her or hit on her like Carter did when getting her in trouble. That would have been far - far better then this cheap simple solution.
A bit too much drama for me unfortunately.
Very simple action movie. Good entertainment where you can turn off your brain or even walk away for a minute to pee. Great cast with Samuel L. Jackson, Michael Keaton and [strike]T-1000[/strike] Robert Patrick (yes I know he was great in many other series and movies, he was good in X-Files as well).
Maggie Q was enjoyable to watch. She managed to keep being the lead character even while surrounded by such an established cast.
So bottom line: good entertainment, but nothing special you have not seen many times before and no plot twists you have not seen coming.
Seriously wtf. Already the opening scenes near the plane are so extremely stupidly over the top........ not even Rambo in his best days would be doing that sh**. And then the minefield.... and that was not even 20 minutes into the movie. Things got worse from there.
Maybe if they'd made this more into an actual comedy, things would have been better.
Predictable. No plot twist that you didn't see coming from miles away. Just another action movie like many, many others.
On the plus side : no woke b.s. for once!
The conclusion of the movie felt a bit like an anti-climax. The conclusion of 'things having already happened', as the girl says, is a bit strange remark for an explanation why she cannot change the past. It's the whole basis of the movie that she goes back in time to change the past, to change the future. The butterfly effect would of course be huge to undo that outcome of the first meeting between Locke and the girl (avoiding spolers here as much as I can)., but its just a bit strangely contradicting on just about everything.
The movie is a bit of a mix between Kill Bill and Hanna.
Well... not the best ever, but pretty decent. Watching Karen Gillan for nearly 2 hours is of course a nice treat. Too bad Freya Allan doesnt have a bigger role in it, that would have been even better :)
Overal it's extremely predictable, but still well done. A very decent near-2 hours of popcorn entertainment.
That Ezra Miller is an annoying actor. What worse than having one? Exactly: 2 of them.
This movie had a fun amount of cameo, but that's about all there's good about this movie.
Too bad it was apparently needed again to add the wokeness where the white man was of course the main bad guy. That really took away too much for me. The near superpowered feminist main person is of course the (almost) only smart hunter. Kept down and little by the men in her tribe, when let loose she alone can kill any alien. From outer space or the old world. Right.
this desperately needs to be a full length movie or series, with Anne Winters and William Fichtner
seriously wtf - how bad a Mad Max ripoff can you possibly make. After 21 minutes I was basically done....... trying to continu watching, but this.... is.....
This is probably one of the most stupid movies I have ever seen........... and still it is captivating. Bill Murray is carrying this whole movie of course, but superb roles by Willem Dafoe and Cate Blanchett and Owen Wilson and Anjelica Hustun.......... only Jeff Goldblum his role is a bit underwhelming.
Anyway. For a stupid movie - it's pretty good.
Ruth Wilson steals the show, the first few scenes. And Saoirse Ronan is absolutely beautiful and lovely.
The movie feels a bit like a (theater) play in a way. Just not very funny. Unfortunately. And not as smart as some other movies it seems to try to steal or borrow from.
refreshing no woke bullshit for once.
but oh my God this is a worthless piece of crap movie. lol.
Stupid dialogues, extremely poor acting (but might also be because they just had nothing to work with), stupid script without any interesting plot.... uh what else. Just crap. Too much focus on the 'sam' kid, making it seem like some overly violent nickelodean movie.
Only 1 interesting plot twist I did not see coming, but that kind of just made everything even less believable, fitting in with the rest of the story just fine.
If there had been much, MUCH less of "sam" scenes, things might have been less crap and more of a 80's movie like Cobra (1986). Just missing the meat hook where some bad guy can 'hang around'.
This movie is made for 14-15 y/o's I guess.
Peer pressure crazyness. It shows all the bad things that come from that.
Hope people watching this realize what a stupid shit comes from giving in to these kind of things because other people tell you to do dares or just are convincing you to do even simple things you dont really want to. Have a spine. Say no.
Ending of the movie is one big disappointment though...... too bad.
The whole prison-escape scene is probably the biggest b.s. that I have ever seen from all prison escapes ever in a movie. Action packed, sure, believability somewhere around 0 Kelvin.
Quite disappointing, considering I actually enjoyed the first movie. This felt more like an insult to anyone's intelligence.
this movie is a totally stupid simple action flick. the goal seemed to be to make some humurous movie with a lot of action.
the only good thing about the movie is ms Ryan who is truely gorgeous.
other than that, this is a movie to forget. 6 out of 10 for the popcorn entertainment
no surprises, nothing you didnt see 12 times before, nothing you didnt see already coming for 30 minutes.
just "ok" action flick.
Hmm well. Yeah. What to say.
It was ok.
Not liking how Wanda again ended up being the evil one.
The 'actress' playing America Chavez seemed rather pointless. It could as well have been a totem or random artefact.
Start was interesting but soon after things started to get derailed. Ending was disappointing.
the movie seems to be as stupid as the name of the movie. calling this a b-movie is a huge insult to all real b-movies.
At least this movie starts out pretty good and its less boring then Last Seen Alive, Butler his previous movie that I saw. Is it realistic - hell no, but still enjoyable enough :-)
decent popcorn amusement, but nothing special and not really a movie thats going to become a classic. no plot twists. nothing you cant see coming from miles away. but yeah. its ok :) it's a bit Jane Doe level quality, so seeing Jamie Alexander in here makes perfect sense.
there are unfortunately only 2 good things about this movie:
- Willa
- not destroyed by wokeness
Other then that it's just boring :(
euhhh.... not bad, not great. They probably had a lot of fun making the movie. Less fun watching it though.
the "humor" was beyond me unforunately. Harrelson put a smile on my face, probably once.
