Decent story if it had been done right. Some ok parts.

Overall, irritating acting. Boring characters. Tries to hard.

Netflix pushing quantity over quality. Again.

Usually I write positive reviews but for this movie I specifically wanted to add a review so none else lose their time the way i did watching this. First of all the runtime... why do you take 2,5 hours to develop and conclude this story without actually developing the story itself and its characters..?! Directing...Olivier Megaton is actually a good director, but here he didn't pay too much attention in the editing or directing. Scenes are scattered and disconnected, with random parallel stories which do not deliver anything extra to the film. They just tire the viewer. The violence... is only used to provide "action" to the slow-burn and dull storyline. The story itself... the idea is not bad, the delivery and the stretch of the idea to make it a 2,5 hour long movie; yes that's very bad. Acting...here it is actually 50/50. Some moments are rewarding but not enough to save this film. Overall, I m rather upset that someone spent all this money to create such a time-consuming, violent and pointless movie. 2/10 , don't waste your time.

It sounds like an interesting concept but unfortunately it falls into the seen-it-all before category. Cliche scenes and nonsense dialogue. No likeable characters and the main one has a one expression face which I found irritating. It won't keep your attention and it's not worth the time.

The name is appealing however at a point I felt like that this was another movie produced, written, directed by our very own Tommy Wiseau.
