Tin Soldier

It's not hard to make a bad film. But it's hard to get the money together to involve actors of this level in something like this.

It's possible that viewers might wonder if the financiers were seeking to exchange money of a certain type for money of another variety. I wouldn't want to conjecture about that.

It's not just the spend on the leads either, it doesn't look cheap for the most part. And there's some kind of ham-fisted attempt to deliver a message too. It's not for me to be offended by the take on combat PTSD that's being put before us here, although I can imagine others would be.

It really is awful though.

I watched this with a couple people but if alone wouldn't have bothered after 15 minutes. I guess I expected more with the sectors involved and director but wow this is not watchable. It's boring and everyone watching spent most of the time just playing around on their phones. Hollywood writers are nothing but disappointing most of the time these days and actors aren't even trying it seems. They just want a pay check. The plot was an ok premise but poor execution. The character development just didn't make sense and you didn't care about any of them. Hard choices easy life, easy choices hard life. It's not a hard choice not to watch this movie.

I don't know where to begin or what yo say.

If feels like massive chunks of the narrative are missing. Things just happen for the sake of happening and everything and everyone is vague as hell.

Nothing really feels natural. It's all just a big hot mess of hallucinatory imagery and confusingly shot action scenes.

I don't know how or why this exists but it's certainly an oddity.

Check it out for the curiosity value. That's about all there is.

The cast is wasted here and I'm not really sure what the intent behind the pic or it's story is.

Not a new kind of action film. Just a huge head scratcher.

This movie tried to be dramatic, but it lacked any substance.

It was really uninspiring and it was even hard to watch in a single sitting. I failed and watching the last part was really a waste of time.l too.

The acting wasn't great and it didn't seem like it was directed well.

I don't particularly have anything good to say about it. I definitely wouldn't recommend watching it. I'd like to give them credit and hope they just ran out of budget, but with this one, it's hard to know for sure.

Really low quality stuff. It was on Amazon, so no real surprises, as their quality is often very average.

A movie filled with a bunch of quazi-religious overtones with some sprinkled in semi-narcissistic half-baked para-bu(ll)shido made up sort-of-kinda japanese sounding titles/words and a whole slew of useless filters on top of slow-mo and a seemingly acid-tripping editor trying to bring his LSD-visions onto the screen between the dark scenes with blinking lights and WAY too many close-up shots jockeying back and forth between faces and people.

Story was bad and barely made sense, the actors were probably (?) doing their best and failing at it, leaving the result a mess of a movie, a waste of money and about an hour and 5 mins - as I FFWed several times to skip the most annoying scenes of grand-standing monologuing and preaching - of my life I'll never get back.

It had about NOTHING to do with PTSD besides mentioning it in passing and the best thing about this movie was the people behind the scenes that were paid to work on it. And I'm not counting the actors in front of the camera into the crew here.
