Do you know what happens when a drone gets struck by lightning? Same thing that happens to everything else. Dizzy stars. Effin' dizzy stars flying around their heads.
I'm seeing a lot of hate being directed towards the actor who plays Jin (Jon Foo). Regardless of whether or not he's good for this role, he's been doing the stunt/martial arts thing for a really long time and for me at least it's nice to see him get a lead role (he's paid his dues in countless movies as that guy who gets smacked so hard he spins around a lot before he falls). I can't speak for his acting because I don't think I've ever seen him act, but I can say that he's an amazing athletic talent.
In the past decade or so we've seen a lot of actors and celebrities get training for a few months and try to fake it as action stars, so it's nice to see a real action talent try to fake it as an actor every once in a while. I don't have hopes for this as a good movie overall, but if an action flick has good action, then imho, it's a good action flick. You should check out Jon Foo's stunt reel:
I don't get it. Was Haggar watching the video while on his phone? I mean. You see the video playing then it cuts to Haggar slamming the phone down in anger. This would've been better if he spinning pile drived the handset back onto the receiver.
It would've also been sweet to see Cody accidentally walk past a delicious roasted turkey on the street and then run into an invisible wall when he tries to go back and eat it.
Paradise in the palm of your hand? I'm sure there'll be a pair o' something in the palm of your hand, but it sure as hell won't be ......-dise ok i'm done.
Someday, if someone says, "I don't play videogames.", it'll sound as weird as someone were to say "I don't watch movies." today. Who knows, maybe we'll have world leaders who'll admit to beating a GTA game.
It's a circle of misunderstanding that will continue among the elders and the youth until the end of humankind. The people who are complaining about violence in videogames now are the same people who, decades ago, cracked up when Elmer Fudd repeatedly blasted Daffy Duck in the face with a shotty.
I'm actually interested to see what kind of entertainment our generation will grossly misinterpret and villify when we get old.
That "psssshwt!" sound effect will go perfect with that "pffffffbbbt!" sound coming from that guy in front of me who just killed his second tray of nachos and is too into the movie to get up and take a dump.
You didn't properly close your *SPOILERS* tag due to a spelling error. Unless this is fixed, all text immediately following the opening tag will be interpreted as a spoiler.
