Too much or not enough child rape?
I actually saw it in the cinemas, it was released for a week before it dropped on Netflix and there was nothing else I wanted to see on my usual Monday cinema trip.
I enjoyed it but ending was a bit anticlimactic...The Gray Man: Netflix original film made by the Russo brothers.
It’s been absolutely panned by the critics so I was hesitant…
I enjoyed the f**k out of it… I can definitely see the criticism’s about it being a generic spy action thriller… it most certainly is that.
but so is pretty much every bond film, mission impossible sequel or borne stupendously blockbuster…
You have your main protagonist/secret agent who goes from one amazing action set piece to the next… with a hot female sidekick most instances.. and to me the way i ultimately judge the film is on how great those set pieces are…
and those set pieces are f**king AMAZING… I don’t know how much the budget on Netflix films are these days… but they didn’t skimp on costs on this film… it maybe a Netflix film but the set pieces looked like they were straight out of the latest mission impossible or bond film…. It could easily have played in cinemas.
Overall i thought the film was great… the Russo’s have a real gritty action style which I enjoy… they best used it in Winter Soldier before the rest of their work became too superpower CG heavy.
Gosling was a good leading man… didn’t do anything wrong… was likeable and certainly has charisma to carry a film like this.
Chris Evans was great as the douchebag villain who is think the Russo’s purposely turned up his doucheyness to a 10 to create that contrast with the other prominent character he played for them…
I think the Russo’s were taking the piss a little bit… some of the music at certain times sounded made look very much like a Bond film…
I’ll just say if you like these spy thriller type films I reckon give it a shot.
8/10
