Review of Cold Pursuit (2019) by Datamari — 17 Apr 2016

So disorienting, but so much fun!

Hardcore Henry is the video game movie, as many are saying. I have to say, it's a very fun movie that you really shouldn't take seriously. Critics are bashing it for having a bland story and characters, but you really don't need to care about that stuff when all you really come for is the action! The first person perspective is very unique, and it'll please fans of Call of Duty, Battlefield, etc. The stunt work is fantastic, and it really jars me how they were able to capture them. The action is a nonstop thrillride that feels like you're playing a game without a controller. It's a movie that you don't watch for story, you just watch the action and enjoy, even if the first person gimmick runs thin very quickly. Don't go into this movie expecting much, just watch it and enjoy.

Hardcore Henry gets an 8/10.
