    Started promisingly, ran out of ideas pretty quick. Action scenes from the halfway point onwards were just boring, frankly.

    ^^^ The fist laser was uninspired and boring???

    The only Marvel I’ve been able to sit through to the end was Deadpool 1. Each to his own I guess.

    Having been spoilt by some of the better marvel stuff

    I see. Think I missed those 🤷

    It was a bit like someone picked some excellent tasty ingredients , threw them in a bowl & microwaved them for 8 mins.

    It was edible but not good , 5/10

    Looks like they put every good set piece into an overlong trailer. No need to bother watching it now. Jason Statham must have busy and Mads close by when they found out 😂

    Watched it last night. I was planning to watch the first 30 minutes or so and go to bed (I’m a sad oldy, I need my sleep) but watched the whole thing. I loved it – Leon meets Kill Bill. Like Kill Bill you have to suspend disbelief big time and revel in the action. I loved the graphic novel feel to it – bright colours, scenes that would work really well across a double page spread. I skipped the torture though as I’m a wuss.

    Recommended – I obviously have no taste.

    Saw it last night, enjoyed it. Thought Matt Lucas character could have been cast a little better, whilst he was good, it would avoid my annoying Little Britain flashbacks.

    Wasn’t the worst film I’ve seen this year.

    Watched it last night too and really emjoyed it. You need to leave your brain at the door and just go with the flow.

    I normally hate comic/Marvell films but this was good. Similar to Sin City and suicide squad etc

    It would have been a perfect short film if only they had added the twist to the end of the trailer.
    What a crock of StupidViolentGorySoftPornSpikedBadActingShit.
    I need to book Saxon’s time machine and get those hours back.

    Utter trash. Director has only done music videos before and tried to use that style over a full length film and it just comes across as stupid.
    Every minute of plot was so clichéd and predictable.. Great if you get off on torture porn, I suppose.

    Plenty of stuff I enjoy out there, sorry to say like quite a few other people this wasn’t one of them. No need to lighten up just the director could have had 2 films out of the work he put in here. Both might have worked, together it just didn’t for me – When a director doesn’t seem to know if he is playing it straight or for laughs then the audience won’t.

    If only that were a category on Netflaps I’d save a ton of scrolling time.

    Why make one terrible film, when you can make two!

    I didn’t turn it off but I didn’t think that it was good either.

    Must admit I was finding the corridor fight so tedious that I may have fast forwarded a bit and missed the laser turret bit. Luckily all the highlights were in the trailer.

    That girl from. High school musical has let herself go a bit though.

    It’s genuinely one of the worst films I’ve ever seen, I can’t believe people are putting it in the same bracket as Kill Bill or even Marvel films, Bad style over absolutely no substance, I can’t believe MM read the script and agreed to make the film. FFS two thirds of the film was just the hipster douchebags going around door to door shooting random people as many times as they can. And random saviour woman just appears at the right time and just happens to be a super medic/surgeon/advanced warfare weaponry specialist with no sodding character introduction. I can do the switch your brain off thing but this was just tasteless crap, I like ultraviolence and gore but this was just crap, I like MM but there was nothing he could do to save this steaming heap of crap. The more I think about it the more aggrieved I feel about wasting two hours of my life on the utter bilge stained tripe. When they started singing on the helicopter I said I don’t like the look of this but unfortunately somehow my Mrs was hooked.

    Just watching it now. Gave up on Dr Strange earlier and thought I’d give this a whirl.

    I’m in the shoddy mish-mash camp I’m afraid.

    The hipster douchebags (great term, cheers) were so pointless. I realise this isn’t reality but the sniper could have just killed the target from a mile away by himself.

    Wouldn’t recommend or bother watching again.

    Well it had it’s issues, but I quite enjoyed it.
    Lots of silly, comic book violence, some quite funny bits, and a hint of Oldboy in the escape scene.

    The sniper annoyed me too, as he could have easily taken all the targets out on his own.

    Some good cameos…nice to see Jonny Knoxville and Richard Dreyfuss.
