Review of Monster Hunter (2020) by Arostislavna — 18 Apr 2021
An analogy for this film is that the Battlefield/Call of Duty players get thrust into the world of Monster Hunter's JRPG.
Most of the noobs suck at the game and die off, yet Milla Jovovich was previously in a video game series Resident Evil, therefore she plays more than just Battlefield/Call of Duty, and doesn't suck like her team mates (raid party).
I don't care about the actual story they are trying to make me believe, but at least I have the analogy to fall back on.
Now the action jump cuts are awful, it really ruins the film.
The only reason it deserves a 4 is for the fact that Bloodbath Diablos kicks some American military butt... they are after all, the true villains of this story. With Artemis (Jovovich) character transcending from military villain to full fledged Monster Hunter class, she leaves the villainous organization to continue to fight the monsters which the end of the film attempts at starting a movie franchise with.
