Review of Pain & Gain (2013) by Tuomas R — 26 Jan 2014
Wow! Seriously messed up movie! Entertaining all the same. I honestly don't think Michael Bay is as bad a director as many claim. Yes, his movies tend to be a little one dimensional and lack depth but they are undeniably entertaining.
This one does feel different than regular Michael Bay but still has all the hallmark car smashes, explosions etc.... Very stylish in the way it is directed, however, I can't help but think that, whilst this was a good movie, it could have been fantastic.
A stronger narrative, together with Bay's directing style could have made this into a classic!
