Em Busca de Vingança

Aftermath was not what I expected at all. It's strongest moments were early as the story of the crash unfolded. It was terrifyingly mundane, just another work day for Jake in which a very understandably human mistake was made. Only, this mistake resulted in the collision of two passenger planes and unspeakable tragic loss of life. Arnold Schwarzenegger does a fantastic job portraying the strong, older man who loses his family and lacks the emotional equipment to process it. Scoot McNairy is perfectly cast and conveys the guilt and depression of Jake with heart wrenching power.

Unfortunately this story becomes less and less interesting as it progresses. perhaps that's a credit to the filmmakers for not adding dramatic power by adapting it too much. But, ultimately at the end I felt a sort of, "That's it...?" If you're a Schwarzenegger or McNairy fan, you might enjoy it. Otherwise, Aftermath fails to deliver.

This was a very interesting experience, to watch an Arnold Schwarzenegger film without laughing or thinking "damn what a bad ass". Instead the film is emotionally tough and Arnold really pulls it off to make you feel pitiful and sad from the opening sequence. And the film becomes interesting by showing two perspectives of a very complicated and sad situation. The film makes you think about morals and revenge in a very "deep" way, something i would have never expected from an Arnold Scharzenegger film. Respect to Arnold for evolving as an actor.

Not a casual watch but definitely a very good film. (must see for Arnold fans)

The tragic story of the film makes you think that it has the wrong actors in it, but Arnie himself proves you wrong. His stoic demeanour really makes you feel for his character.

The double story and how it comes together is a bit messy at times but overall it is compelling until the end.

Decent, not amazing, but worth a watch

Don't expect any Terminators jumping around in this movie. The plot is somewhat new, and not a used up scenario you find in every second movie.

It's a movie that goes a bit deeper than the usual special effects movies these days.

I did not find this movie boring as some stated, it got a slow pace but well thought. The characters need to breathe to send their message out.

So if you want pure action, stay away from it, if you like movies that bring their message with acting, go for it. Arnold Schwarzenegger is talking with his whole body, that's what I prefer to overextended dialogues.

So if you thought you leave it out, because it's just a 6 rating, you might miss an interesting new face of Arnold Schwarzenegger.

The actors around him did a good job as well.

When I watched this it reminded me of the Joker. A dark character study based on a true story of how people deal with grief. The ending is perfect too. Arnie is really showing his range here which is something his action hero contemporaries have not tried to stretch. Not sure how much of this is based on truth and how much is fiction but it's totally believable. Truly tragic all around.
