The Rookies

Chinese try to make an EXPENDABLE movie and fail terribly. Just awful. Sad to see her go the way of Bruce Willis and Nicholas Cage, no script too bad.

Milla Jovovich's next movie should be called the rise and fall of Milla Jovovich. Since she did the Resident Evil trilogy I feel like she has done movies out of boredom.

So many negative reviews from negative-Nancies! It's an action comedy and not meant to be serious. Imho, had more action than the latest Bond movie almost made me fall asleep.

Yes, subpar camerawork, acting and amateurish directing and story is in a comedy-fantasy area, but I've seen much much worse from Hollywood blockbusters.

Overall, good movie for a night 5.7/10.

Milla Jovovich ... I mean she enriches everything she does ... doesn't she? That's a rhetorical question of course. Unfortunately she is not the main focus here ... and you will probably feel the same way - especially after she has that really great action scene near the start of the movie.

That aside and also the weird fact that Prime (Germany) decided to either have the movie dubbed in German or have the english track only (every chinese actor being dubbed, almost hillariously so, when we have a translator for Milla as one example) - which did not work in the movies favour let me tell you that much ... all that aside, the movie has some really nice action and stunt set pieces.

And these are the things that really safe the movie ... the jokes are way more miss than hit ... but if you like silly things, you may find more things enticing here than most of the other viewers.

I have to purposely login just to give it a low vote 1 for the effort.

IT IS BADDDDD. It Motivates me to give it a 1.

It's not Bad enough to be Good. And not even good enough, it's bad even though with decent budget it clearly have.

Lazy Scripting is plain Bad when they try to be funny it's not really funny, when it's serious the feeling is just not there, it just doesn't fit together well.' The Asian actors is bad really bad. Lots of improvements needed.

Bad character developments. For one example, the main character is a risk taker & do extreme sports like parkour, but he's like physically impaired & shame himself multiple time. Inconsistent given logic, when you give a show a bad logic at least make it consistent.
