The Bluff

Couldn't even start the movie...

I couldn't even get through the trailer. More feminist garbage as a woman kills hundreds of male pirates that are bigger and meaner than her yet she can easily dispatch them all.

I really was hoping this would be at least watchable as I like pirate movies. But it's not. Hollywood loves to latch onto minorities with limited to no talent and just shoving them down everyone's throats. Chopra Jones is their newest DEI project they seem to be pushing as a female action star and like usual her acting sucks. The movie is filmed competently enough but the acting is pretty bad all around, even Karl Urban is pretty bad here. The action scenes are decent but unfortunately this is nothing more than a girl power feminist fantasy. Even though the movie is heavily black casting it takes place in the Caribbean in
the 1800's where there was an actual large population of Black as well as Indian so the Indian/black couple and black casting is probably realistic. There are also bad and good portrayed black and white as well. The Chopra Jones character however is so over the top superhuman its laughable. She has no problem physically fighting and overpowering multiple large male pirates at once. She gets clubbed in the back while laying down at full swing from a standing pirate and just shrugs it off then hits him in the leg with a seashell and he collapses to the ground. Pirates can't manage to shoot her from 20 feet away with a clean line of fire while standing still. This is utter and complete feminist nonsense and I shut it down after about 45 minutes. Not recommended.
