First of all the entire concept of this movie is nonsense. It all plays out like the 4th or 5th mission you would do in most GTA games with bikes. I didn't particularly like or dislike any of the characters and the whole thing is ridiculously over stylized. Now that I have that out of the way I can try and figure out why I kinda enjoyed this movie... it moves at a very fast pace so although I was never entirely engaged, I wasn't bored either. The two leads are great as they usually are in everything so they're a safe bet. Love triangle not necessary but whatever. I suppose you could call it enjoyable nonsense.


Got 5 mins into this and turned it off, it's Tony Scott on crack.
ReplyDeletetis a confusing one,it is a piece of shit but also kinda fun,maybe that's the worst type of movie?
ReplyDeleteMore like Tony Scott with an iphone and google maps, but yeah 5 minutes? I couldn't do that with any movie ever, I'd have to stick it out so I could really praise or rip it to pieces! The only possible exception I could think of is if you accidentally stumbled upon a family members sex tape, but even then if you make it to the 5 minute mark your pretty sick, in the head!
ReplyDeleteAlso it's worth pointing out (and I think you'll agree with me on this Aindriu) that although I picked 5 as my score, I see this as a ceiling for the movie. I would never dispute a 2-4 score, yet I really don't feel this ever deserves a 6...
