Project Legion

This review hurts to write being that I'm a HUGE fan of Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone as a fighter. I've personally met him and he is an awesome down to earth guy.

Unfortunately his acting in this film as hard to watch. Although I'm sure it doesn't help that the storyline, script and production are all absolute trash.

Immediately you can tell the production quality is low... which would be fine if the story made any sense at all. Everything in this film seems forced and cringey.

As I said this it hurts me to write such a terrible review when it comes to the infamous Cowboys Cerrone.... But not nearly as much as it hurt to watch that movie.

If you are able to make it all the way through this film. God bless you... and may god have mercy on your soul.

Of course you know it's not going to be a classic when your lead actor is a retired MMA fighter. Donald Cerrone is a bad actor and has no on screen charisma whatsoever. Watching his "I am Legend" routine is like watching a crackhead suffering from paranoid delusional schizophrenia episodses hide out in a cockroach infested motel room for an hour. Everything about this movie is crumby. It's a lame story with lame action and lame suspense and a lame plot. You could probably make a better movie with a bunch of your friends having a party in any roadside flea ridden desert motel room and using your own cell phone as a movie camera. This trash film is seriously that poorly made. 2 Stars for the Hilarious effort and a couple of chuckles, watching this dumpster fire of a video unfold into the abyss of Nothingness.

I hadn't heard about this 2022 movie titled "Project Legion" before sitting down to watch it. However, I must say that the movie's synopsis sounded interesting enough.

I am rather amazed that writers Lance Kawas, Michael Pizzimenti, James Raptoplous and John Sullivan could collectively managed to churn out something as bad as what "Project Legion" turned out to be. Strange why not a single writer would stop and go 'something is amiss here'. The storyline in this movie was utter rubbish and just downright laughably poor written.

Now, I have no idea who Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone is, nor do I have any urge to find out. But a leading actor capable of carrying a movie he was not. The acting in this movie was every bit as wooden, rigid and bad as the script and storyline. So at least those went hand in hand.

Visually then "Project Legion" was actually okay. But the special effects could do nothing to lift up the movie, given its total absense of a properly functioning storyline and lack of proper acting.

Trust me when I say that "Project Legion" is not worth the time, money or effort. I even fell asleep during the ordeal of sitting through this movie. I ended up just turning off the movie not even having made it 40 minutes into the 90 minutes that the movie ran for. And believe me when I say that I am not ever returning to give "Project Legion" a second chance.

"Project Legion" was through and through a massive swing and a miss. I am sure that the concept idea for "Project Legion" might have worked out well enough in the idea phase of its creation, but the transition from idea to script and finally on to the screen just didn't work.

My rating of "Project Legion" lands on a two out of ten stars.

This is one of those afterparty 2 AM "hey, let's all get high and make a movie" ideas. Normally everyone sobers up the next day and the idea is forgotten. Not this lot.

First they wrote the script:

An apartment. A guy is inside. The door is closed. Guy yells at door. The end.

Then they held a casting call:

"I put the people with talent in room A and everyone who couldn't act in room B." "Uh oh, I just sent everyone in room A home." "That leaves us with someone named Cowboy, a former Playboy Playmate with more miles on her than Greyhound, and a woman best filmed in a really dark hallway." "Good enough."

Then they chose a director:

"You do it!" "No, you do it!" "Fine, I'll do it. What's a director do anyway?"

Then they chose a location:

"I know an abandoned mental institution with a giant exhaust fan at the end of the hall." "Perfect!" "Really?"

Then they started filming:

"We only have the camera for one day. Everyone try to arrive by 9 AM." "And... cut! Good job everyone. Let's grab an early lunch."

Into the editing room:

"Uh oh, the video software license expired." "We only had just enough film anyway."

And release:

"How much do we have left over from the $1000 we raised?"

Unwatchable. Three stars.

OMG, no.

Have knw idea who Cerrone is but he sure cant act.

Doesnt matter however because the writing and directing (and dumb sound effects) are so bad you won't notice.

The randomly inserted sex scene early on is with what looks like a 50 year old woman. That's how bad this movie is. They couldnt even get some hot babe to be in it!

The entire movie looks like it was shot with an iphone. No one even bothered to check the lighting. It's attrocious.

And the way you can recognize the demons s that for somehow walk on hands and feet with their torsos pointed to the sky.

My goodness, this is one of the worst movies ever made.
