Film was okay at best picked up towards the end but I'd be lying if i said i weren't on my phone for them first 90 minutes....

None of them characters were interesting :yeshrug:

That dude who owned the pharmaceutical company was a horrible actor also

This was fine
Charlize has been wanting her own franchise for awhile
Netflix is saying this has been views in over 74 million homes already so she got it if she still wants it
Is it too early to ask for a crossover with Extraction:jbhmm:
maybe Hemsworth is immortal:krs:
Would certainly explain a lot :russ:

Did they set this up to be a show or a movie sequel? Seems like it would be a better show going forward.

Good flick that I discovered in the barbershop and finished watching on my own. Saw a pic of Theron and her 2 black sons this morning dressed up like ballerinas that made me wish I didn't support something she was in tho.

Sis delivery was bad. Really bad. She had lines and a role that a Keke Palmer woulda killed. The opportunity was there for her to really play around and make something out of the character but she seemed to have just memorized her lines and delivered them when it was time. IMO....this is more evidence Theron is :mjpls:. If a young white actress was mailing it in like that, she'd have pulled her to the side and gave her some tips. She just let baby girl drown.

Speaking of racism and WS...Hollywood...will yall knock it off? The oldest immortal is a white woman? A pasty one at that? Please stop. In reality such a warrior would probably look more like Michonne from the walking dead. Yall aint been on the planet that long. But yeah you ancient warriors tho. That the sun hates. Lol ok!

Boy does Hollywood write tender romances for men! Those guys had a beautiful relationship that transcended millenias didn't they?? I guess a hetero couple couldn't express the same kinda love and devotion tho. Plus you have to be progressive nowadays. Oh shyt, know what coulda been progressive? A heterosexual BLACK couple in the same role as the 2 white men. Not a biracial couple! We get that all the time! But what we NEVER see is a black man and black woman loving on each other onscreen WITHOUT the backdrop of overcoming bigotry and racism. They can't just exist as characters in an action movie.

So even tho I accidentally enjoyed this, fukk Charlize and the sequels.

I fukks with this. All I need are some dope action scenes and a decent plot and I’m straight. I really enjoyed the fight scenes. Especially during the last act.

I’m sad that Keke Layne’s performance has had negative reviews. I liked her in If Beale Street Could Talk, she’s solid at playing an innocent/naive character but I think she’s physically perfect for Storm and this could hurt her chances of being cast.
