Interesting

The story was not horrible, but there really was no "Tournament" like the '95 movie.
The movie set design for most of the movie was rather bland as they used a lot of industrial/worksite or normal buildings that just make it feel blaa compared to the sets that were built for the '95 set. Visually, it is better , has better fights, and has more characters from the game.
This movie was still missing a few of the characters '95.
It is more serious than the '95 movie and not as much comedy as in '95 movie.

Interesting

Love that they used the music from the games in the movie and used the many catchphrases from the game.
Lots more jokes and comedy than the reboot serious.
Good set designs that look like places from the actual games.
Actually has a tournament.

One of the most retarded movies of all time

The movie is just a dumb leftist talkin' point about enviromentalism.

Oh and in the end the presidents says: "now we are guests in countries we previously called the third world", shows how anti-western the movie is.

Oh and the weather freezing your body in mere seconds? Yeah, Roland Emerich is a dumb retard.

What happened to Beckinsales career? This is almost the same movie and review as for her terrible Canary Black movie. It's a generic boring, badly written action film but I think it's actually the worse of the 2 movies. They are so similar in look and feel I actually think they filmed a ton of generic scenes and then edited it into 2 different movies. The acting here is not very good. Kate has the same weird deep raspy voice that sounds like she's been smoking 2 packs a day her whole life. Her hair is dyed the same and cut the same in both movies, she walks around in the same black leather coat and high heel boots that are out of place to be doing action scenes in. This one is more woke than Canary however. A lot of DEI overrepresentation, all leadership
roles and positions of power are held by females with the men being thugs and followers. Beckinsale is in her 50's and way to scrawny and small to be beating up on much smaller younger males sometimes multiple at once. They also had to have her banging the Chinese dude because we just have to get that mixed race box checked. Then
there is the deaf daughter and the use of sign language. I've seen so much of this casting having deaf characters in particular and some sort of disability in general lately this has be considered some sort of woke overrepresentation at this point. I mean only an estimated 1% of world population is deaf so this has to be a diversity and inclusion push that would fall under DEI. I gave up on this one around the 50 minute mark when she walks into an s/m club with a bunch of duds walking
around, dancing and get spanked in leather outfits. No one wants to see that garbage.

One of the greatest shows of all time

It has to be one of the most truthful and realistic depictions of the birth of the Roman Empire.
From a cesspool of degeneracy ruled by decadent nobles, purged by one great man to establish the greatest empire every formed.
It does take a few liberties, for example the brief incestuous relationship between Octavian and his sister, but it does not alter the history.

Really fun comedy

If you like slapstick and corny jokes and stuff that Chris Farley is know for then this is a must watch!

Decent movie

Not great but not horrible. Only really great thing about it is Mel Gibson.

I only made it to 30 min but nothing really woke at that time. Listed as a thriller it's basically husband cheats on his wife than is harrased by
the other woman and blackmailed. The scenery and cinematography is great, at least until they get onto the hot air balloon. At this point the terrible green screen is so poorly done and noticeable. The biggest issue though is the awful acting. Although it says it is from the U.K it's like they hired all non English speaking actors. All of the lines are delivered with this sort of stilted dialogue it is so distracting and unnatural. By 30 minutes I just couldn't keep going and the story seemed like it was going to be very slow and unoriginal anyway.

An odd little forgotten gem from the 70's

Mother, Jugs & Speed is an odd black comedy from the 70's with Bill Cosby and Raquel Welch. And Larry Hagman. There's a handful of quite cringe scenes, including one where Hagman tries to have sex with an unconscious women in the back of their ambulance, and there's 70's style sexism and racism with a bit of resolution to that at the end.

I'm rating this because it's kind of a forgotten film that's held up pretty well over the years despite the 70's era not giving Raquel Welch her woman's rights and over-the-top craziness from Hagman's part. There's also more than enough darker moments to surprise the viewer. If you look just a little deeper, you get a ton of one-liners out of this one too.

Nothing really woke. Another 80's set comedy that actually does a pretty good job of getting the period right. Unfortunately it's just not
that funny. The acting is ok and the writing is decent but there's a lot of eye rolling too stupid comedy. While there is a few good genuine laughs it's not enough. It feels like it's on the verge of what could of been a great comedy, there are some really good setups for funny scenes but the punchlines and payoff too often miss the mark. The whole time I was watching it I kept visualizing ways the scenes could of been so much funnier. It's still kind of watchable but it just misses the mark a little too much in my opinion. This movie spends a lot of time bordering on hilarious it's a shame it rarely manages to get there.

It was a struggle to make it 30 minutes into this movie, not because it's woke or really bad but because it's sleep inducing levels of
boredom. Listed as a sci-fi thriller it is anything but thrilling. It's a psychological drama about astronauts in space and questioning their sanity. I feel like we get a couple of these exact same movies every year. Half the movie is flashbacks but everything is just so boring and nothing
happens. The acting is so so but Casey Afleck seems to be on valium the entire time delivering every line like he's struggling to stay awake, its
so monotone and emotionless. I didn't notice anything really woke but I was bored and losing interest pretty quickly.

Holy Hell Running Man is in-your-face

Spoiler alert. I can't give The Running Man more than half a chance. I gave up on this movie. If I missed anything good, maybe the ultra-pro commie rhetoric that other reviews speak of, let me know.

Completely unknown Alyssa Benn plays Ben's wife. She's kind of a looker, but the couple is absolutely so mixed that it's kind of not even realistic. She even kind of speaks jive.

Jesus. The first half hour, we're bombed with the aforementioned mixed race couple, a rant on the rich ("those rich people are more full of shit than me" to paraphrase), yet another black-n-white lesbian couple and, naturally, the oppressive hand of those capitalist swine leaning heavily on the backs of those little people.

I was skeptical this film could be as terrible as this. Like, I'd go in and see it's got Glen Powell who I think is cool, maybe it has some action and all of this propaganda could be discounted for that. I always think like that and I'm always wrong. This film is absolutely nothing but a vehicle for the liberal message. These commies should have dropped leaflets from a helicopter. That's how transparent all of this is. I suspect most involved have more cash than myself, so campaigning on being a commie is disingenuous anyhow.
