Right, well I had the chance to sit down and watch the 2020 movie "Bloodshot" from director Dave Wilson. I had never heard about this movie prior to getting to sit down and watch it.
I must admit that right away I wasn't having much of any expectations to the movie, as it starred Vin Diesel. And I am not overly much of a fan of his, as his performances in movies tends to be very monotonous and tedious. But still, I do like watching movies that I haven't seen before, so I took the time to watch "Bloodshot".
While the movie definitely is crammed with action and impressive effects, then I will say that the script and storyline was quite far fetched. Sure, it was entertaining, as it is a movie, but the realism in the script was long gone. Which essentially meant that this turned out to be an action movie where you just disconnect your brain and lean back to watch the action and CGI effects.
If you have seen one movie with Vin Diesel, then you know what you get in "Bloodshot" as well, because the performance here didn't deviate one ounce from what you get in other movies. While that was monotonous, most of the movie was actually made bearable by the performance of Guy Pearce, as he was just fantastic in his role.
"Bloodshot" is an entertaining enough movie for what it turned out to be, but this is hardly an outstanding action movie. And I doubt that I will ever make a second viewing of this 2020 movie.
My rating of "Bloodshot" settles on a very mediocre five out of ten stars.
