Rendel (2017)

“"Rendel" boasts that it's the first full length superhero from Finland and, sadly, that ends up feeling like the only questionable accolade it truly deserves. The story centers around a vengeful vigilante taking down a corrupt pharmaceutical company run by cartoonishly over-the-top thugs that, naturally, have wronged him in the past. Simple, a bit "been there, done that", but who doesn't love a good revenge flick, right?

Apparently, the creative team behind this doesn't because the movie seems hellbent on crowding the goings-on with a panoply of characters and subplots that are not only thinly developed but serve only unnecessarily complicate the proceedings. Worse, they employ a poorly executed flashback narrative to unveil the origins of the titular character which effectively” read more

"29.6 Rendel on elokuva, jonka tekemisestä kertova elokuva olisi aihealueeltaan kiinnostavampi kuin tämä pohjaan palanut juustonaksu. Olen nähnyt jopa laadukkaampia kotivideoita, joissa on parempaa käsikirjoitusta ja näyttelyä ja tämä on jotain niin mykistävän huonoa. Rendel on tylsä ja munaton sankari, joka ei hiisku sanaakaan, hänen backstorynsä on kliseinen ja puustaveistetty ja pahikset ovat niin käsittämättömän tyhmiä että lahtaavat käytännössä itse itsensä siistii"

"Ilginc ve bir o kadar da garip bir film. Kendi intikamini kendi almaya calisan, superkahraman ama bir o kadar yenilmez olmayan karakterimizin azcik uzun ve sikici hikayesi. Farkli bir super kahraman yaratmaya calismislar ama bana kalirsa o kadar da basarili olamamislar."

"26.5. (Kirjasto/BD) Muistan, kuinka toimittaja Kalle Kinnunen haukkui Bunny the Killer Thingin ala-arvoiseksi elokuvaksi, ja samassa kappaleessa kehui, että onneksi Suomesta on tulossa myös jotain oikeasti hienoa genrekamaa. Tuo Kinnusen haukkumateksti oli vain toisen elokuvan "paskuudella", omien kaveriensa paskan elokuvan paskaa promoamista. Rendel on täysin typerä, huonosti näytelty ja heikko teos, jonka katsominen alkaa unettaa ensimmäisen vartin jälkeen. Myös sen huumori on ihan yh"

"Ei vittu näin. I had really low expectations and the opening took those away right from the start. This was so much more awful that I thought before seeing it. Everything is so generic and outdated that it hurts, also the film seems to be written by 12 year old kid. The dialogue is just bad and unintentionally funny. Only enjoyable things were Bianca Bradey from Wyrmwood pulling a Xenia Onatopp-performance which sadly lasted like three scenes... and spotting places from my old hometown for 5 y"

"So Finland has its first superhero film and it's laughably bad. Super derivative of every superhero movie ever made, the tone is all over the place and the dialog makes my ears bleed. Oh, and some of the most obvious twists I've ever seen. I don't even remember what the hell the story was about. A fun drinking game would be "spot the giant tungsten spotlight hidden in every factory/warehouse scene" Don't. You'll die. "
