Beloved Beast (2018)
Why can't you give this NEGATIVEstars?
This movie was fxcking awful. The acting is just painfully horrible to watch. It had a really good premise & setup for a cool 80s horror flick vibe, but the actors completely killed this movie with their pathetic attempts at "acting" and always coming off like they are bored and would rather be anywhere else but on set.
Give this one a pass and save yourself the 90-odd minutes ot however long it is. Ugh.
The Last Heist (2016)
Don't judge this so harshly...
Look... so many of the other reviews slam this movie so hard, it's as if they were strapped down and forced to watch it. I doubt that was the case, so don't be so butt-hurt.
The reason anyone watches flicks like these is simple: you have some time to kill and you are looking to be entertained. You know these movies are not going to be Oscar material, so don't climb up on your high-horse to condemn it.
You were actually expecting a serious heist movie? shame on you. (plus, this movie isn't really about the heist at all).
You were actually expecting a serious movie of any kind? you must be new to watching movies. Stop writing reviews and log a few thousand movie hours under your belt first. Then come back and try again...
There are always some givens when you watch these movies:
1) the acting, by and large, will be sub-par at best for at least 99% of the actors (if not all). Don't be so indignant, you sound ignorant.
2) the plot and story will be pretty thin and weak, full of holes, and even nonsensical. more to the point, it's usually by design, as these folks know going in when they roll cameras... it's entertainment, not a holocaust documentary. lighten up.
I watched the trailer for this movie, saw Henry Rollins was going to play a serial killer, and I was hooked. I expected fun and schlock, and lo and behold, I got what I came for.
Hank has been doing a bang-up job in his film roles lately, and I absolutely love every minute of it. The man deserves bigger and better roles, but alas, Hollywood always seems to relegate him to bit parts. The man gives his all, and he earns every single accolade thrown his way (and deserves much more).
So, to sum up:
It's a fun, B-movie with Henry Rollins playing a die-hard serial killer.
Pop some popcorn, grab a soda, and just chill. Enjoy it for what it is.
