Taurus

Do you like entertainment? Then this movie is NOT for you. It's boring from beginning to end. The main character is so unlikable and one note that you wish he would overdose within the first 15 minutes just so the movie can end. Wannabe Kurt Cobain is a drug addicted rock star. That's the plot. It's unoriginal, poorly acted, and it rivals paint drying in the entertainment department. Clearly MGK realizes he's never going to be Eminem so he's trying to be Kurt Cobain. He's just a copycat of other people. His acting range in this film goes between depressed and manic. You won't get anything else from the main character. What a BORING film.

As was to be expected with a kind of auto biopic of Machine Gun Kelly, there wasn't a whole lot of drama or depth to create a detailed and intriguing story with. That being said the performance delivered still made it enjoyable and realistic. With a better script based around the more dramatic tales from the Rap scene this could've been great. Never the less, it was produced well and for a music fan, it doesn't disappoint. As a movie fan don't go into it with the highest expectations and you will be satisfied. The music component of the film with integration of a songs conception, mixing and finalisation throughout is an amazing concept, one that was delivered well and could be used to great effect in other projects. Overall I see the film as not great but is good and groundbreaking in some ways. When looking back in a few years, it will hopefully be an acting and film turning point in Colson's career.

Taurus is one of the worst films I have ever seen. As someone who has seen many films depicting mental health & addiction this must be one of the most one dimensional attempts ever made. MGK is desperate to portray himself as a broken angst ridden artist at the best of times. This film feels self absorbed and try hard. The dialogue is awful. The acting even worse. The scenes of drug use felt so text book with empty dialogue which felt meaningless and so Hollywood without any grit or emotion. Even if MGKs character is meant to be depressed I still should have felt some of the internal pain from the character and I felt nothing. There was no substance to anything in this film.

Full disclosure: I only streamed this because hot Megan Fox was in it. At least I think she was.

This movie was so freaking bad that I spaced out many times during it. Frankly, I only remember Megan for a few minutes maybe 50 minutes into the movie.

But as I said, this is a space out movie. It is one of the worst written and directed films I've seen in about a decade. It is so slow you will be drowsing off following the credits.

I'm not even sure why this movie was made, or how it got backing. It goes no where. You have no sympathy or empathy for the main character whatsoever.

Please, never direct a movie again.

Very dark and gritty film. It dances on the line of fact and fiction for Colson's life. There is an element of the film that is introduced in the beginning, is later addressed in the film, but I think that Sutton could have tied it in with Colson's character to make a deeper impact on the film. Overall it is a good film but it could have had some tweaks made to it order for it to be a 10 but no film is perfect! I saw it screened at the Newport Beach Film festival! I think that Colson and Sutton would make a great pairing and could be good for both of their careers in film in the long run!!!!!!
