NGL, some sort of "Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Slayer" type action film based on Carter could be DOPE!

Since I was watching rush hour yesterday. A solo rush hour featuring Chris Tucker was what I was hoping for lol

Those helicopters at the end can't possibly be in the movie? that looked unbelievable bad, any self-respecting 3D designer would commit seppuku over that shit.

well its netflix CG so yea , really bad

None stop....CGI.

The movie is a nonstop action fest! It’s great mindless action, the camera work is top notch! Some of the action sequences looked like it’s one shot!

Highly recommend, one of the best action sequences I’ve ever seen!

Looks like Ip Man and Dragonball Z fucked The Last Of Us and this was the result.

The movie is too ambitious for it's own good(A one take style action/kung fu movie) and even though you can see the flaws, they tried their hardest to make it as interesting and as fun as an action movie could be.

If this had just a little more budget, time, or maybe talent, it would be one of my favorite action movies of all time. However what we were given is hard to rate. It feels like it should be an A+ project, but it also feels rough in many spots, specifically the camerawork and the color grading not matching during transitional shots and the too-shaky camera in certain parts(which I assume that they didn't have the needed stabilization rig to make things smoother).

Can't see shit trailer. why do they make trailers like that? what are we supposed to feel when we see barely half a second action one after the other? more like a headache :/

I am going to watch it tomorrow. hope it's good. been a while since I seen a good movie.

There is Hong Kong cinema kung-fu good, and then there is just plain good. This is the former. Don't expect master class acting or performances. The star of the show is the action, fights, stunts, and camera work.

I really don't like that you can see the transition between camera takes at certain points, takes you out of the scene.

movie was fucking crazy
anyone with motion sickness beware of this movie

I put it on the same motion sickness level as Hardcore Henry. That movie was emulating a first person video game. This one feels like it's emulating a third person game.

got a headache at the end , the length of the movie also contributed to this

What do you think the perfect length should have been? Some people felt like they stretched out Hardcore Henry a bit too far with that final act and I agree.

1 hour thirty minutes would have been good here.
still a good flick for action fans .

There was a better version.

Those silencer sounds were taken from Goldeneye.

 

[H4ze]

Saw it yesterday, while I enjoyed most of the fighting scenes, the "story" and horrible cgi left a bad taste. Was hoping more for a "The Raid" light, instead of ps2 animations.

And the obvious transitions between cgi and actual movie were really bad :/

But this sounds worse than I want to, still a fun action flick, but there was no need for it to be that long.
