Review of Machine Gun Preacher (2011) by Elvisheimer — 18 Nov 2014
Wow. This movie is quite simply unbearable to watch. While the story itself may harbor some interesting and compelling material, the script is so horribly mundane, cliche, and unbelievable that the film comes off as unintentionally comic material.
Gerard Butler does the best with what he is given; however, his character's arc goes from awful scoundrel to world saver literally overnight. Furthermore, not only is the entire film's premise a stretch of your imagination, the ending is extremely unrewarding and empty.
Please, save yourself some brain cells and some time, and choose something else to watch.
