I don't want to give away any spoilers but I thought it took a strange shift at a certain point. I thought it was OK though. Interesting enough to keep me watching to the end.
it turns out it’s not based in Manchester, is appalling, and was a waste of a Friday night.
the script is appalling at sort of lower junior school play level, and the characters are very weak. One or two of the actors might make of go of a career.
only thing holding it together was Smiths songs all the way through
Compare it to say, Blinded by the Light ... in fact don’t!
Filmed in Torridon though.... Pretty scenery and surprised they got enough clear days.
5/10... but 7/10 if you have some 7-9 year olds kids to entertain.
If so, yeah it’s very watchable - I have a soft spot for it !!
It ain’t no ‘Ring Of Bright Water’ but at least it does not traumatise and scar a kid for life.
Very cartoony and with the spurious video game link which feels tagged on.
It didn't really have a convincing underlying plot of any meaning to give it any substance, though, it's just the gimmick. Naomi Watts should have been in it more, and there needed to be a better reason for her doing what she does. She kinda comes across as the ultra villain of the piece, she knows this thing could end the world and not only completes it but activates it?
Only a 4/10 from me, I did like the humour of the violence and assassins.
To me it feels it is like a jigsaw of different ideas lifted from a bunch of classic novels and films that does not quite fit right. A fan of the genre might enjoy it though.
Granddaughter was watching it. Surprised to learn that Lyndsay Lohan has a twin.
The Korean #Alive is also much better than "Alone/Final Days" , especially if you like "Train to Busan" .
"Alone/Final Days" is also missing the final part of the Korean original .
Can't recall ever seeing the original so can't draw a comparison.
This story is fairly basic, seven guys come to the aid of a town of simple folk who have their land stolen and who are pressed into slavery by a maniacal villain who owns the local law and has a penchant for shooting people in cold blood should they dare to stand up to him.
The cast is pretty good with Denzel Washington in the lead role along with the likes of Chris Pratt and Ethan Hawke.
While the movie is pretty good entertainment it feels a bit flat afterwards. The whole premise of the plot is that there's going to be one huge fight at the end - and there is, but the substance leading up to the finale is lacking.
Some of the cast fall into their roles really well but for me, Washington is just too Denzel for his part and it doesn't work very well. Compared to Peter Sarsgaard who plays the baddie Washington is just a name to put bums on cinema seats and with a more dynamic actor in the role it would have left a better lasting impression.
6.5/10
