And here i am enjoying posting it again.

I think the bigots who keep on reporting don't have muscles cos of their pathetic diet n they must be depressed by their flaccid n short assets.

Regarding the movie - Sometimes Nic Cage's films r like jackpots, especially when his Cage Rage n wide eyeballs r present (Mom n Dad and Mandy).

The film becomes a double jackpot when Nic Cage is beaten or tortured (Wicker Man).

So viewers shud be careful before watching Nic Cage's films.

As far as this film is concerned, the acting is atrocious. The lead actor cannot act, his blank face is perfect for poker games.

The editing is lousy, the action choreography is duds n one of my fav actor Frank Grillo is not given enuff screen footage.

The script is atrocious n this one is Nic Cage's those kinda films where u know that it's gonna be bad.

The film is devoid of Cage Rage. May be this is the reason some of his fans r also against this film.

This is the worst film I've ever seen in my life. The special affects were abysmal, the acting was awful, I don't even think they did any Jiu Jitsu either.

This movie is laughably bad in every way possible... end of review?

Eh. I'll say some more. I could tell it was poor filmmaking almost immediately. Bad everything (acting, dialogue, music, and cartoon cgi). The movie makes zero sense. There are a thousand dumb moments or things to make fun of.

But i figured, if it has good fighting, i could enjoy it. And i saw tony jaa in the opening credits so i thought we might get that.

What do i even say. The fight scenes were TERRIBLE. And it's very odd that it's not because of the usually suspects: quick cuts, shaky cam and close up shots. In most of the fights, none of that was present. And in many, there were extremely long takes with wide shots.

So why were they so bad? I'm not really sure. One of the best compliments i can say about fight scenes is that i could feel every hit, like with john wick and the accountant. This movie was the exact opposite, i couldn't feel the hits at all. And i don't know why.

Maybe it has to do with sound mixing. There was almost no noise with the hits, and sometimes the noise seemed off by a half second. Could also be that they didn't focus on the moment of the hit. I can't figure it out.

But what i do know is, the fight scenes gave me zero pleasure. Combine that with every other movie attribute being terrible and this is just a straight-garbage movie. Damn you nick cage!

... i wonder what movie of his i'll watch next (1 viewing, 5/7/2021)
