Feng shen chuan qi (2016)
When you thought 10 000 BC was as low the movie industri could go...
On the good side this movie is so bad it is entertaining...if you spend the evening alone and bored.
The voiceover artists sound so convincing they seem to be random people shanghaied from the street against their will. Though, a good share of them seem to he preschool teachers that get carried away as the movie regress. The plot is paper thin, still filmmakers manage incorporate all the cliches existing within the genre. Everything going on is predictable, and there are no limits to the handy magical powers that appears when needed. The fighting scenes are so over the top in these kind of movies I simply do not understand that anyone find it fascinating. Moreover, the acting is so bad Tom Holland would seem like a Sir Laurence Olivier if he was a member of the cast. There are absolutely NO emotions thus nobody to sympathize with. Not even the small kids from the invincible tribe that are meant to be charming. Neither does the evil queen doing so many terrible things to people stir much emotions. It is simply bad bad bad. So bad it has to be experienced.
The Protector (2018)
starts promising but
Started promising but the plot becomes a back and forth repetitive thing with easy to fool characters on both sides. The lead characters never learns to tame his temperament, nor his womanizing skills which the feminist characters do not seem to mind at all????? ( He becomes romantically involved with the feminist historians within minutes after the death of the love of his life. Neither does he nor his blood thirsty brothers and sisters in arms seem to take any interest in the mysterious Immortals apart from fighting them. Who are the immortals really, where do they come from and what are their motives? Instead we get a display of how westernized Istanbul has become with skyscrapers, people who jump to bed with one another and Scantily clad women who smoke and get drunk when they are on. There are of course no rules against that, but this could have been the gateway to so much more.
