They/Them (2022)
1/10
Not a good slasher
7 August 2022
This is not the first movie I've seen, related to the sexuality theme... But while some are fantastic, like the Fear Street trilogy, this one is awful... The deaths are boring, not "gruesomely funny" like on the Friday 13th franchise or even the Fear Street trilogy... The bodycount is super low, and the movie drags itself for almost 75% of it's length... There's no plot, no blood, no gore... Just a try to make a social thing out of this... But without managing to engage.

The Commando (2022)
2/10
I was, really, hoping to love this movie...
14 January 2022
...but I didn't... I love Michael Jai White. He still has the physique, the skills and the charisma, but this movie failed everything I was expecting it not to fail.

The effects are bad, for sloppy sounds effects to sloppy visual effects of blood and bullet hits... The acting is what we should expect it to be. Not bad, not good... But the way the movie was made, it's so damn sloppy.

Rourke looks like Michael Myers with a tan and a cowboy hat... I was really looking forward to see this movie, and it sucked really bad 😞

A Dark Foe (2020)
1/10
Bad... Just bad
18 August 2021
Bad acting, confusing plot, a movie that just tries to be all over the place, tries to be a psychological thriller, with a pinch of horror, but it's just bad.

The actors are very very bad, the scenes are so vain, so bland.

It's another example of the modern crap movies that walk around the horror /suspense.

In the end, scenes just don't add up, it's just a big mess... Not really worth it... I want my time back.

Black Widow (2021)
1/10
This is a good example...
6 August 2021
... on how to ruin a character... So, first of all, the movie lacked the faithfulllness to the comic... Then there's the choreography... So bad... very very bad... And the real Black Widow is a tough character, a violent one, not a "family-friendly" character... For me, this is a major letdown... but unfortunatelly, this is what happens when Disney buys Marvel or other superhero-labels... they completely destroy it.

The Virtuoso (2021)
2/10
Very boring movie...
30 April 2021
This movie has a great premise. I love movies about hitmen, so, this was one I was really looking forward to see, specially, because of Sir Anthony Hopkins being on it... Man, was I disappointed... The actors were bland, no emotion whatsoever... the movie dragged throughout the whole ordeal, the acting was a bit forced, sometimes... The only good things on this piece of cr*p was the effects on the first kill and the beautiful dog (I love dogs) and the lead acctress, that had a very nice face, not looking "fake" like many others... the movie itself, was boring, dull, and a real letdown... Do yourself a favour, only put this cr*p on if you are having a very bad case of insomnia...

Nobody (I) (2021)
8/10
Very entertaining
29 April 2021
A movie meant to entertain, like all movies should be... With lots of action, violence, brutality and some comic moments... A typical 80s a-like movie... Very direct... Still, too bad Daniel B and Alan M didn't have the screen time to show a bit more of their moves... I liked it... Nothing pretentious, like most movies nowadays.

Army of One (2020)

It felt like a bad 60s movie
28 March 2021
Do you remember those bad, b type, 60s movies, where the actors needed to stop moving just to swing a punch and on between strikes, they could eat a snack and take a nap? This is like that.. Boring action scenes, cgi blood, and weird acting, all over the place.

A very bad movie, at best.

Awful
27 September 2020
This movie has nothing... Boring, stupid, slow... Unfortunately this is the kind of horror we have, nowadays... This is not a 1 out of 10...it's -10 out of 10. Run away from this crap

Disappointed...
27 September 2020
Warning: Spoilers
I'm a huge Mark Dacascos' fan... And, as always, everytime I see a movie with him on it, I have to see it... The movie itself, is not bad... but I felt disappointed... You see, to have a movie with a background scenario being Thailand, the land o Muay Thai, and to have Kane Kosugi, as a bad guy, I was expecting a very pleasant martial art's choreography, at least in the final fight, between Kosugi and Dacascos... man, was I wrong... Only a couple of blows, and that's it...

The story, eventhough not very original, is good, the pacing, very pleasant, not fast enough, but not slow as well... but to have two awesome martial artists not doing a awesome fight, is very very disappointing...

Still, the movie is fine enough to make you entertained for a couple of hours...

This is....nothing...
24 August 2020
Warning: Spoilers
The movie stars up in an unoriginal idea, but, nowadays, we get used to it... The problem is that the tension is built, we get a couple of characters here and there, throwned into the screen, and then.... nothing... there's a killer that we almost have no glimpse, there's no motive, no reason, nothing... The movie is empty... All of the characters die, but there are no reasons for it, no background story for the mansion, no nothing... This isn't a joke, it's an offense to any horror movie fan...

Letdown
26 June 2020
Had everything to work...good cast, beautiful landscapes, and a very good story... Unfortunately, there's no movie director in this god forsaken country, that knows what "action"means...to do a movie like this, without any battle scenes, in absurd, at least... So, don't bother... it's very very boring...

Enjoyable
21 June 2020
Well, another no-brainer, low budget, bad acting, kind of "trash-movies" from the 80s, with a touch of a more modern era... Like I've said in the first one, this is no award winning movie, but it entertains a lot (and it's a breeze of fresh air, to find something like this, after having to spent 2 or 3 hours with boring movies like Hereditary or Midsommar)... Blood, gore, action, and a bad script, make, this film, a very entertaining piece...

Way better than I've expected
21 June 2020
So, I just went along, and rented this one... I had low expectations, but I really enjoyed myself... Ok, the acting is poor, the story, not original at all, but it had that feeling of the 80s "trash-movies", I do love. So, if you enjoy those old horror movies from the late 70s or 80s, you will enjoy yourself... it has blood, gore, action and bad acting everywhere, the way we love it...

If there's one thing I hate, it's censorship
4 June 2020
Warning: Spoilers
Me and my wife started watching this a couple of days ago... We found it entertaining...until we reach a couple of scenes where blood and injuries were blurred out... I'm used to Korean movies, and I love them a lot, because most of them have raw violence, brutality, without any sort of social awareness or politically correct standards... So, to watch this with censorship in it, was a complete letdown... Nice story, nice characters, nice action scenes... Spoiled with the PG13 effort on it

Another dull psychological pseudo horror movie
12 May 2020
This movie is dumb and boring... I fed up with psychological horror movies, that support themselves in human emotion... If you are like me, a very indifferent person, that doesn't feel empathy, you will find it very hard to enjoy the movie... It's very predictable, bland... It's not a movie that I would recommend.

A total letdown
7 May 2020
The acting was awkward, almost amateurish. The fighting choreography is bad, slow, very slow and gets boring. The idea was good, an homage to the 80s...but poorly made. Too bad, I was expecting something much better

Not that bad... Seen worse, with a bigger budget
27 April 2020
Well, let's start by the beginning : this is not an A game kind of movie. It's low budget, with some decent gore and cgi for a low budget movie. But, then again, what would we expect from a movie based on the video-game? Doom hasn't got a very good story, that would work out well as a movie, so, there's not much to see here, if you're looking for a good sci-fi script.

This movie is a filler, a movie to pass time, with violence, blood, gore and zombies... It had a good pace... The acting is c-grade movie type, there's a couple of known actors here, but this is a low grade type of movie, where you can turn off your brain, pick up a few beers and some chips, and enjoy violent, a bit dumb, kind of movie, just to pass some time, you can't go wrong with this. Just remind yourself that this is not a state of the art movie, so there are limits to the quality of the cgi

No Surrender (2018)

Don't expect nothing, and perhaps you will be entertained
2 March 2020
Well, this movie is hard to see. It has a nice story, and a well balanced pace... but... First of all, forget Adkins... here, he is only a secondary character, a decoy. The actors aren't great, but I've seen a lot worst in Hollywood, so... The audio, oh man... The accents are awful... For me that's the major let down on this movie, the awful accents... Why didn't they keep this in their native language?

Still, the first time I saw it, I was disappointed... I saw because of Adkins and the awesome trailer, but he only shows hopoe for a couple of minutes... The second time, I forced myself to rewatch it, with low expectations, and I was entertained.

That's it... not good, but way better than the first Hulk movie (2003), and many others after that...

Countdown (III) (2019)

Same lame story
16 February 2020
Well, this tries so bad to be good, that it's shameful. Bad acting, no blood or gore, lame jump scares. It borrows stuff from The Ring or Final Destination, but in the end, it doesn't know what to do with it. Not worth it...

Booooriiiiing
15 February 2020
Well, when I saw Jai White's name in this, I was almost immediately interested on seeing the movie... But, unfortunately, the movie is bad, very bad. The dialog seems forced, the sound editing is poorly made, and the fighting choreography is dreadful. They seem so amateurish, so clumsy. Too bad... The movie is very very boring

A disappointing effort
2 November 2019
The movie had such potential... It has everything we needed, to a fantastic action flick, that would not only entertain, but also become a classic. But it failed in almost everything... The action scenes aren't that bad, but they turn out to be shallow and empty. They should have given less emphasis on the scyfy part, and more on the medieval history, itself... Awful movie...

Awful movie. Lacks everything, from talent to originality
31 August 2019
The movie is dull... Another torture porn movie, where the victims are illegal immigrants, and the torturers are a couple of american sellers... The main actress sucks, is dumb, no real talent there... The same to the actor portraiting the husband... Stupid script, bad acting...

Loved it
4 July 2019
This movie, at least for me, is awesome... The true embodiment of entertainment. The acting and the story are nothing outstanding, but the fights are fantastic, with fast pace, and very brutal. I don't care about depth, in movies... I'm not looking for a movie that makes me think... I'm just looking for something that entertains me, simple as that... And this is pure entertainment... I loved it

Very nice movie
16 June 2019
The story goes around Júlio Santana, a small, rural town boy, turned into a hitman, by a twist of fate. The movie shows Santana as a real person, not a killing machine, with no heart or feelings... Some say this movie is all about choices, and that's true... the choice of killing or not killing, the choice of having riches and a wealthy life, and taking lifes, or having a modest living, without blood on his path. There's doubt, sin, and redemption, in different phases of this movie, and that makes the main character "likeable", eventhough we may question some "life choices".

The pacing of the movie is good, there isn't a single dull moment in this movie, and, eventhough I would like to see more killing, the ones showed, are good enough for a "bloodhound" like me. There's violence, there's blood, there's romance, there's drama... there's a bit of everything here... ...And that shows why brazilian cinema has such potential, in the "post- Elite Squad" age.

Try it, you won't be disapointed at all...

It could have been great, but...
28 February 2019
The movie has style... The actor isn't bad, and the story, eventhough not original, is very good... But... The movie seemed to have two different parts... The first one, the building of the characters, was very well paced, not rushed... But the second one, when the vengeance finally starts, is thrown away, all over the place... There's no logic sequence, no climax, no nothing... And, of course, there's the plot, on the second half... What the hell?!!! Everything is thrown in screen, without a hint of what's going on and how things happened the way they did... It lacks something... And that's bad...
