Bloodshot

On one side you have the fanboys who would lick the sweat from his armpits rating this a ten, and the I hate Vin Diesel crowd (who probably didn't bother to watch the movie) giving one star reviews. Despite it's flaws this is an entertaining, slickly produced, mindless sci-fi/action film. Vin Diesel knows what he's good at and he does it pretty well, if you're expecting something else that's your fault.

I never saw the trailers, neither did I knew this was based on a comic-book. I just wanted to see a good action movie with Vin Diesel in it. I did not had my exceptions very high, but boy did it even went far beyond that.

This is your run of the mill action movie, even the action seems are uninspired, there is no redeeming quality about this movie, it was very generic and boring. Add that with wooden performances and the script was a total mess, it could be written by any Kid, it was that generic.

This movie does not stand out in any way from the other superhero action movies, it does nothing that distinguishes itself, neither does it do a good job in what it's trying to achieve, just random things happening here and there and you stop caring midway through.

I would say avoid seeing this one, not worth watching in the cinema at all or in general.

It works on a basic level of action spectacle, but really doesn't offer anything in the story department that we haven't come to know with these revenge anti hero films. Vin Diesel is as standard as he usually is and doesn't make the character interesting either. I'll just sum it up and say this is just a throwaway action film with some cool sequences but overall you will feel like you've seen it already.

I just got out of Bloodshot

I didn't like it, but I wouldn't say I hated it. It is a very silly film that is seemingly aware (At least I hope it is) of how silly it is. It's pretty tame violence and blood wise, it's pretty much all in the trailers which is disappointing.

It's full of cliche's, it's action is routine and the effects whilst not bad, are not mind blowing either, there isn't much humour, but I have to say it is hard to hate a film that includes a dick joke which takes 20 minutes to pay off.

Of the cast Vin Diesel is a bit bland and Guy Pierce is hamming it up but Eliza González was joy as KT

It features two things I hate in movies, people eating noisily (when they'd never really eat at that moment) and when you see the back of someone's head (Vin Diesel for example) whilst he is talking, but what you can see of the side of his face, clearly does not match what he is saying.

There were 16 other people in my screening. They were mostly 20 or younger and spent a lot of time on their phones. Someone was even checking Facebook during a chase scene.

It feels like an early 2000's superhero movie in a bad way like Daredevil or GhostRider
