Review of Maggie (2015) by Thegodfatherson — 09 May 2015
Every moment of Maggie is brilliant and emotional. Breslin and Schwarznegger both give solid performances, and the movie is very, very, well written. Henry Hobson has done justice to Arnold fans, and given him the role of his lifetime.
I can compare Maggie to my favourite video game, The Last Of Us. The result is haunting, suspenseful, terrifying and thrilling, every moment was crackling with suspense, an eerie quietness and powerhouse performances and emotions.
Wade knows that Maggie will die, but he stays close to her till her last breath. Maggie captures the relationship between a father and her daughter masterfully. It's dark and scary, and meets the requirements of a zombie outbreak and its effect hits home.
Maggie deserves a staring ovation. It's brilliantly written, sharply directed, masterfully acted and well executed. Take your father to watch this one, it's a love letter to all fathers in the whole world.
Being a father himself, Schwarznegger beautifully captures a role of a father struggling to help his daughter before she turns into the things he most hates. Maggie deserves to be watched. 10/10.
