Boneyard

I have broken foot and the remote fell to the ground so I had to watch it all.

Some of the acting super bad. I couldn't make out 50 cents lines most of the time. High school plays have better actors.

The editing was the worst part. The back and forth to the memoirs was so terrible I couldn't tell on times what was going on.

The echo in the sound sounded like they used the same mics from porn movies (yes I watch porn) I am flabbergasted of how bad this was. The only ok thing in the movie was Mel Gibson and not even him being on the movie could've make it a bit good.

I feel like I watched a low budget movie. Ewww.

I wanted to like this - I really did. Despite some of his actions outside of film, I'm a long-time fan of Mel Gibson. And "50 Cent" has made an admirable turn into acting. Several of the other actors are familiar from other shows. Basically, it's got a good cast.

But this film is NOT good.

It's confusing at times (several times I had to ask my wife "what was that scene about?" - she had no answer); it drags on at times (I was pausing it to wonder how much longer it had); and generally wanders a path that leaves the viewer going, "Whatever."

To make matters worse, it had potential! Again - the cast is good. These are people who can act - and the acting is fine. But it's brought down by the writing, the plot, and the directing.

I won't post spoilers, but I'll just say that when it ended I felt...empty. Devoid of emotion. Kind of like, "THAT is how it ends?"

I give it a VERY GENEROUS 4 out of 10.

Yet another geezer teaser.

Gibson here looking like he walked on set after spending the morning drinking at the local dive bar. 50 Cent plays a police chief and mumbles through all his lines as fast as possible to collect a paycheck. Yet despite that they are the two best parts about this. Whenever they aren't on screen this drags and feels like an episode of CSI or some cop procedural that accidentally got made into a movie.

Guarantee this will be streaming for free on Tubi by the end of the year. You're better off watching this that way don't waste your money on this. Gibson and 50 Cent deserve better.

Was Mel Gibson's inspiration that one mugshot of Nick Nolte looking completely insane in a Hawaiian shirt and frizzed-out psycho hair? Oh, but it gets better (worse?) when Mel goes into action Sad Max mode and tries to run ten feet in one scene. Yeah, that's just a whole lot of booze belly coming at us.

50 Cent is woefully miscast as the gruff police chief who I can only assume is "one day away from retirement" or "too old for this stuff" or any number of tropes.

Also, I am not entirely sure what the resolution to anything is - which makes the entire point of the movie moot. That is because it isn't played as a respectful representation of the true crimes it was exploiting...I mean, based off of.

Nearly every character has to explain in the most infantile or corny way what serial killers are, what this police procedure is, what they are doing and why. It all comes across as discount Criminal Minds/CSI filler.

Easily skippable nonsense.

The only reason I started watching this movie was because I wanted to see a thriller/detective AND Mel Gibson was starring in it. Could this be worth a watch?

The bad: Mel Gibson only has got a small supporting role. We only get to see the guy a couple of minutes. Unfortunately the rest of the cast are B-movie actors, who simply can not act and it painfully shows. Not terrible, but way below par...

More bad: what's really annoying though is the fact that this story NEVER becomes thrilling or suspenseful for a second. I dont mind watching predictable B-movies, BUT they HAVE TO BE thrilling and this isnt. Not for a second! To be avoided!
