i know i wasted 90 mins of my life.
a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
View MoreThe thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
View MoreIt is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
View MoreI am speechless. Just please don't go to see or rent the movie.It is a waste of time, money and energy!!! I don't know what Keanu Reeves was thinking when he accepted to play in this movie.
View MoreLet me stat by saying I really like Keanu Reeves. Most of his movies are very entertaining and have a relatively simple plot. There's good guys and there's bad guys. This movie ain't that. This movie does keep with a familiar theme though, angels, devils, heaven, hell, and of course, wickedness. But the problem is that it is a story told in a very unsatisfying manner. If you walk away, after seeing this movie, with a satisfied feeling, you are a very strange person. I'm tempted to give it 2 stars, because of the feeling of emptiness when the movie ended. But the actors did a credible job at telling the tale. The production values are good and the movie did fit into a certain genre, it's just that I felt worse for seeing it. If you love Keanu, you'll stick with it. But for me, I need to rewatch the John Wick flicks. Maybe a couple of times. Just to reset my head.
View MoreJust on a technical level i'd give it a 6.5 out of 10. The two story lines move at a snail's pace and don't have much depth. The movie plot can be summed up in one long sentence. The acting is pretty spotty apart from the lead actress who does a decent job. The script is pretty robotic sounding and Keanu Reeves delivers his usual robotic performance which he does so well and it fits the character that it's actually OK. The movie has it's moments, uses music effectively at times and does portray life as not always being neat and packaged like a lot of Hollywood movies mistakenly do and lose their interest by being artificially black and white. I lower the score from a 6.5 to a 4 though because the movie's underlying message is pretty bad.It seems to excuse murder as being OK or even good. Murder isn't the correct response to being upset by something. Even if that something is a horrible experience. You're not a hero when you do worse things than the villains do. Sorry. Basically don't waste your time on this.
View MoreThis was one of the worst movies I've ever seen. I've never seen a movie with so many plot holes. When someone dies in the movie, you don't know about it until a character mentions it, that's only one instance of a plot hole. After watching the entire movie, the movie also basically tells you the entire movie was pointless except for the end, which pointed back to the false beginning. It is a slap in the face for anyone who watched the movie, it makes the entire movie seem pointless. The protagonist also hallucinates the whole movie, and you can't tell what was really happening or fake. I would urge you to not watch this movie, you will be gravely disappointed and confused.
