Ray Garrison (Vin Diesel) is an American special force squad leader. He and his wife Gina are kidnapped and brutally murdered by mercenary Martin Axe. Tech entrepreneur Dr. Emil Harting (Guy Pearce) brings him back to life with new powers. KT (Eiza González) is another one of Harting's projects.

I don't particularly like Diesel at the start of this movie. He has his moments but this is not one of his best. It's not the worst thing in the world. The plot is functional. The action is bombastic but somehow bland. That's the general takeaway. The movie is trying to be a big comic book superhero origin story but it just lacks something memorable other than Psycho Killer. It comes off as a bland second tier comic book movie.

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

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.

"Bloodshot" is a poor collection of "Universal Soldier", "Robcop", "Matrix" and 'Memento", among other films, that do not work well. The plot is absolutely predictable and it is possible to the viewer to foresee the story. Despite of the clichés, the viewer that is fan of Vin Diesel will certainly find the movie entertaining. My vote is five.

Title (Brazil): "Bloodshot"

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.
