Long Gone Heroes

I am a big Grillo fan , a fan of Beau Knapp and either actor will make me want to see a movie they are in. Both in one picture with strong performances from Melissa Leo, Eden Brolin , Josh Hutcherson, George Carroll and Juan Pablo Raba, it was surprising how good this was. All of these actors really shined in their roles, most likely because this movie actually had a real script with character development. The writer took the time to give this a story where I could actually understand what was going on and these actors brought the story to life. Is this a big budget Hollywood production, obviously not, but in my mind that is a plus. Grillo makes movies I want to see. He's incredible and he's backed up here by a fine cast and a movie with some real tension and some horrific scenes. My only complaint would be while there is a fair amount of action, I would have liked a bit more. On the other hand, by the end of this movie I really cared about the characters and I've seen so many poor movies lately where everyone is the bad guy so you end up rooting for no one. This was very good. A character driven thriller.

Pretty nonsense movie with alot of action and it still not appeals me alot. I like warmovies and action, but this was just too much for me. It was not so great at all, it misses something like a good story. It feeling forced and no brainmovie. It was not a great movie, sorry Viaplay, but i dont like this.

The only good part of the movie is when they speak really bad about the political situation in Venezuela and the government. After that, the movie is too bad, non of the landscapes are from Venezuela, they didn't make an effort staging Caracas, and come on... Colombian accents in every actor who speak spanish? We have good actors such as Edgar Ramirez, Wilmer Valderrama, etc..., and if you want a cheaper actor, please contact me, I could teach you all about my culture, how the military are, the expresions for high and low class people, even the cars and bikes are too wrong. Have they ever been to Venezuela? Or perhaps seen a yt video of the country? It wasn't that hard, was it?

Melissa Leo and Andy Garcia must have been doing a friends kid a favor. This wasn't terrible but certainly could have been better. A bit of a lazy, cliche script/plot, but not badly acted. A few other familiar faces that performed well with what they were given. The action is okay, at times as unbelievable as any other hero rescue film, but overall okay. I guess these kinds of movies need to exist, and people in the industry need work. Every film doesn't have to be Oscar worthy.

So ridiculously formulaic. Special forces go in. Get into trouble. An unarmed fist fight which the hero wins. All ends well.

No wonder Americans think that their military is the best in the world.

Then there's the robotic script, wooden acting and the ending, the very definition implausibility.

Nonsense on film.
