Load of rubbish!!
Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Blistering performances.
Bruce (Ry Barrett) is a cable guy and vigilante. His wife (Tianna Nori) was a victim of violence and he spends his spare time caring for her when he is not in riot gear knocking in the heads of a gang called the "Mandrills." We see him a beat up a few of them, some victim group therapy and then we see Bruce go off a cliff as he goes after people that don't quite come up to the bad guy level.The film was rather pointless as was Ry Barrett's character.Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.
A man takes care of his wife who was injured in a shooting losing the use of her legs. When he's not doing that he is The Demolisher. Dressed up in an outfit ripped out of The Exterminator and Rampage he goes around bashing heads.This could have been an awesome grindhouse type but it just didn't know what to do. The pivotal plot point was when his necklace got found at a theater and she keeps it. He then spends the rest of the film tracking her down, killing whoever gets in the way. This is the part that rips from Terminator.I didn't really mind that nothing was original and the story was awful. I did mind when the Demolisher was doing some acting. This guy is the poster boy for anger. He is always shown expressing anger. If he was the Hulk he would never be in human form. If you want a good laugh you should watch this but if you're after a decent flick don't look here.
The poster is riddled with comments from supposedly professional reviewers raving about how amazing this movie was.But don't be fooled by them cause they clearly were under the influence (of money most likely) when they wrote those.Don't get me wrong, there is some talent behind the cinematography of the movie, for such a low budget movie it looks pretty good.But the script is horrendous, it tries so hard to be artsie, abstract and distant (probably to hide the fact that the plot doesn't make any sense) that it's borderline impossible to follow at times.And no the movie is not too complex for me or anything it has nothing to do with that, the characters and script simply does not follow any kind of logic.There's not really all that much more to say really.
The camera work is impressive in some areas, capturing unique perspectives, but that's not the problem with this film. The problems, actually, are what follows.Where did all these reviews plastered on the poster come from? Are you kidding me? Who needs dialogue when you have long (to the point of awkward) actors and actresses staring off into nothing? We didn't need a plot, because: REASONS Nothing really made sense in this film, outside the fact that the lead antagonist was clearly insane.The "violence" and "brutality" of this movie was very boring and simple. No real structure to the action, so it's selling itself as a boring trip.If you want to see what a slow burning thriller should be like, watch A History of Violence. This film seems to attempt that kind of portrayal of a vigilante, but really, it's a failure of a horror film, shot in a way to show the perspectives of both cat and mouse, and boy are they both dull.I gave it a 2 for the camera work being impressive, like I said, but I'd rather regurgitate a full grown cat than watch this again.
