Review of Boon

Boon (2022)
7/10
Little slow at first but still really fun.
3 April 2022
The film gets a little slow but that makes sense because it's clearly inspired by old westerns like Shane and Hondo (two films with one cowboy guy protecting a woman and child in a dangerous west environment).

I'm a big Neal McDonough fan. Grew up watching Band of Brothers with my dad and later enjoyed him as a baddie in Walking Tall and Arrow. He was also in Resident evil, which I just saw and actually liked.

It was cool to see him be this western hero in a modern world.

Cinematography was awesome.

Loved the score.

Fun cast.

Some brilliant and fun action scenes (one with a spoon in a man's neck).

My only gripe is it was marketed as more of an action film and it's really a slow burn, which I do like a lot, but I can see action-fan boys and people who want carnage and gore throughout the run time to be a little let down.

Not at all as bad as these reviews are stating. Just a little slow but big payoff.

7/10.
