Review of Revenge (2017) by Biotofu — 13 Jan 2019
The story felt like its written by some high school girl who was trying to write something edgy feminist during her boring history class. it did have some nice shots that felt like they belong to some dior perfume ad. but basically its a movie about this irresponsible blond who took the risk to have some fun with some hot rich married guy out in the middle of the desert. jens was not a good moral person, nor smart, nor strong. pretty unlikable from the start. the movie just presented her to the audience as some hot nympho who manipulated men to fall for her desire in the first 10mins. there was very little to feel for her other than the fact that she was a rape victim, and that was not compelling enough for me to root for her, while she ran around the rocky desert bare feet for 2 days with a speared thru torso AND without dying from blood loss or infection. The acting was horrendous. There were an incredible amount of holes throughout the entire movie. wheres the entry wound? the hunter didnt know how to hold his weapon? Where did the bullet hole go on the headrest? did they just run around in a circle for 5mins?
You might compare quentin tarantinos kill bill and that would be an insult to mr tarantino. Similar to matt damons great wall, this movies unintentionally bad it became entertaining, so I upped the score from a 2 to a 3.
