Max Steel

You know those horror movies that start with a bunch of kids going away to have fun in a cabin in the woods and it takes about five minutes to know everything that will ever happen to them? It's like that, but lame sci-fi.

It starts with the single mom moving back with her teenage son to their home town. He is young, sexy, but vulnerable and he's got superpowers and a friendly alien that he didn't know about. Oh, and a girl that is all but stalking him in order to be his boyfriend. And the mother knows something, but doesn't prepare him one bit, because he might not be ready. And the alien is amnesiac. So in order to be a bit interesting, they plug in a villain. A lame villain that makes no sense and has zero character development.

In fact, that's the feeling you get from the movie as a whole: plug and play. Every piece of it, be it plot, special effects or actors just some refurbished bit of crap from some other film in the genre. It is worse than a failure, it is something that they made knowing it had no value. The more I think about it the lower I want to rate it, so I stop here.

This movie got a lot of hate when it first came out. But when I watched this movie on Netflix when I was younger. I enjoyed it, but now that I rewatch it, it's not that fantastic. But I did like the cgi. The acting is not great. It's a bit bland but there are some good acting parts. The storyline is.... Okay. I wish he went other turbo modes and fought other ultra links. It would've made it better. (Watch the show to understand better) this is also based off a Mattel toy line that became a cartoon. So yeah Max steel is a disaster movie I have mixed feelings for. If budget was bigger had more story, more fight scenes and some editing corrections. It would good. It's honestly a shame this film was bad. There was so much they could do. 5/10 but I still like it. It's okay.

I actually enjoyed this. After reading a few reviews I expected it to be really slow and boring but was pleasantly surprised. Sure it took a little longer going places than some of the rushed non-stop explosion fests available but that's why I liked it. It felt like it was it's own film and not just a carbon copy of all other superhero style films out there, it actually took time to build a sense of mystery and develop the characters rather than just rushing from one plot point to the next.

I felt like I got to know the main character and was intrigued to see more of the movie universe unlike many forgettable action/sci-fi movies out there.

If you go into the film expecting non-stop action sequences go watch the avengers, if you want something with a little mystery and gradual exploration of that mystery watch this

The acting is some of the worse I've ever seen. Storyline really wasn't delivered right. Reaction to certain situations in movie wasn't handled properly outright ignorant. I found it hard to stay and watch the whole movie. Really bad bad movie overall.

Okay I loved the animated max steel when I was a kid (the 2013 one) and this movie came out when I was 10 and I was hyped to see live action max steel But this movie was just boring there were only a few scenes with max steel in his suit and I didn't like it even when I was 10 I loved the show because of all its cool action and cool villains I loved it but this was just boring i wanted cool action also I'm surprised by how many people like it that's fine by me but I just found it boring I had to wait like 1 hour in until max steel was in his suit I kept thinking "when is something cool gonna happen?"so I don't recommend it for epic cool action lovers.
