Review of Rampage (2009) by Boyan R — 03 Jun 2010
Tell me what you want, but this is NOT a work of Uwe Boll ... and there's no chance anyone in the world can convince me to believe different.
I mean, you can also forge Picasso, Van Gogh and Leonardo da Vinci, but you can't trick the experts. Not that I'm one of those (I wish) and certainly yes, comparing Uwe with these greats is a blasphemy, but, I've seen enough of Mr. Boll's previous work, and I can only say that this involves someone else's hand.
My assumption is that some young, just straight from the college, unestablished director, hungry for money (or just plain hungry) sold his soul to this notorious successor of late Ed Wood.
You can tell that all the way from the start, from the fine acting, cool camera moving (ok, maybe a little to shaky), following with the interesting story and finishing with a great twist. I was amazed when I realized that even those annoying flashbacks have purpose (to turn your mind away from the real plot).
All in all, good job (whoever directed it). Put here a 80 million dollar budget and few superstars and you'd have a real blockbuster.
