Review of Hardcore Henry (2015) by Joshua H — 26 Aug 2016

If you had to use two words to describe Hardcore Henry it would be "fucking awesome!" The movie's plot is super simple which exist solely to feed you SUPER-COOL fight scenes. What seems like a trite gimmick, the movie is filmed in a first-person shooter style , which is fun and clever enough for a 3 min You Tube video, but can a one trick pony successfully carry a full length, feature film? The answer is probably no, but to your surprise Hardcore Henry has top-shelf filmmaking with inventive and unorthodox tricks up its sleeve that keeps an exercise in ridiculousness from getting stale! The movie is lacking in star power, the only notable actor in it is Sharlto Copley, who's great , because the movie is stacked with him playing 6 different characters! The movie has its flaws, but ultimately it delivers on its promise to make a legendary action flick!
