Mack was the victim of a traumatic brain injury. Sorry not sorry.
Had a very basic understanding of the premise going into this, but wow, it did not go where I thought it would. If you're into slow burns, great acting, and fantastic cinematography, this checks all the boxes.
And the craziest part? It draws inspiration from events that actually happened: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarah_Jacob
Before you watch this movie, think of literally anything else, and watch that instead.
A good movie until it isn't. The slow burn was good, the acting was good, the tension was good.
But it lacks one critical thing - common sense. Nobody thinks to call the cops, and any reasoning for not doing so isn't well conveyed to the audience. Meh.
All I can really say is "What did I just watch?"
It's worth mentioning it - RIP Niki Lauda.
It becomes painfully clear why Justin Long hasn't been in many films as of late. This movie is boring, drawn out, cringe worthy, and really could have ended when it became clear that yes - Adam is definitely an asshole.
Look at all me hearties watching this before its official release. We be the real pirates here.
It's one of those movies where you just kick back and enjoy the ride. I'm a fan of the Resident Evil movie series in general so I knew what to expect. Nothing too serious, nothing that'll change your outlook on life, just a solid action movie despite its flaws. Ties up a lot of loose ends, it's got Ali Larter in it, and it's got some really great fight sequences. Don't expect too much from it and you'll be sure to enjoy the last or is it movie of the franchise.
It's not the most well edited film. It's not the highest budget film. In fact, there's a lot of things it isn't. But even now, nearing 20 years later, this film is in my top 10 favorite movies of all time. The humor, the soundtrack, and honestly even the underlying theme itself makes the movie worth watching all these years later.
It's become a tradition to watch this movie on St. Paddy's Day while drinking a Killian's or a Guiness.
