Bloodshot

Meh.... Shallow at best. Mindless action where investment in the characters was impossible because of poor acting and individual character development. The story timeline was deliberately skewed with the use of flashbacks which made it too frenetic to follow or at least care past the 20 minute mark. Cool SFX but not enough to make it worth the $6.99 in my opinion.

Movie was really good! Reading the reviews, im shocked so many didn't enjoy it. The plot had potential to be boring and dry but they took a simple idea and wow'd me. The ideas behind the technology in the movie are quite fresh and innovative.I hadn't recognised how overused the same "futuristic sci-fi" ideas were in movies nowadays. Bloodshot has given me a new perspective into what the future may look like. The director has nailed the fight scenes with superb camera angles and slow motion.

As Superhero origin story it works well. The hero is relatable you understand what drives him and why he does what he does and Guy Pearce's bad guy is evil without crossing over into Bwah Ha Ha supervillainy and the rest of the cast are a great balance to the Vin's and Guy's characters. The Special effects are solid and the action scenes are well filmed and choreographed. a solid superhero action movie.
