Review of Bastille Day (2016) by Jess_Hill — 27 Jun 2016

As a big fan of the original, I was looking forward to a fun, ridiculous spectacle of destruction with this sequel. What I wasn't expecting was the uninspired, insipid, boring two-and-a-bit hours of idiocy, coupled with cliche upon cliche, wrapped in nothingness that was this utterly disappointing film.

I was not made to care about anything in this film. Not about the paper thin characters, stupid storyline, visually impressive yet somehow still mediocre action sequences, or the vague attempt at 'heartfelt' moments.

A completely lacklustre film that isn't worth your time. 3.
