Willy's Wonderland: Parque Maldito

I enjoyed this movie. It was pretty contained and I think used it's script and budget really well together.

This film does seem a lot cheaper than it actually is, I think most of the money was probably spent on Nicholas Cage. I do however think that they used it well and it didn't really need any more spending on it. I think where it shows it most is the other actors. Some feel like they may have actually just found them in the town they shot at. It doesn't detract from the film it just kind of sticks out a little bit.

I think the story is pretty interesting too. It was a little bit different which I appreciated. I think the action was pretty engaging too. I will say at some points the film did sag a little bit and I was like this feels a lot longer than an hour and a half. But for the most part it clipped along.

I do think the comedy let it down a little. Some of the jokes were just awful and not funny. You can tell it is meant to be a comedic beat but I honestly was like "that was a joke?".

I thought the movie looked pretty good for the most part too.

I would give it a watch.

Unfortunately, the good nonsense (Cage as a mute monster fighter obsessed with pinball, the design of Willy's Wonderland) is lost in the bad nonsense (cheap filmmaking, lazy storytelling, complete illogic between scenes). I would love to see a better filmmaker (Edgar Wright, James Gunn, Rogen/Goldberg), or even a much worse filmmaker, take on a possessed-Chuck-E-Cheese story...but I feel like this might've been the one chance, and we BLEW it!

B-movie horror fans will love this film. It's Nicolas Cage running around slaughtering animatronic puppets. That's literally it. If that's your thing, give it a watch. If not, don't waste your time. 5 stars

This movie borrows a lot from the Five Nights at Freddy's game with fun family robots not doing quite what they are supposed to do!

This movie couldn't be any more perfect as a vehicle for all the things that make Cage, Cage. He is wonderfully over the top as he dominates the movie from start to finish.

Lots of fun moments and oodles of blood/oil spilt to make it a good time for all.

One of my favourite aspects of the movie is they don't explain anything about Cage's character, you can literally put your own story (the who is this guy) onto him. Its brilliant.

Its super silly, outrageous fun :)

The story is basically about Nicholas Cage fighting murderous robots. It is funny that he seems superhuman, and doesn't talk at all. It's entertaining.
