Story:
Interest: 1
(2 = I'm so glad I watched it!;
1 = Interesting enough to watch it til the end;
0 = What a waste of time)
- The first hour was boring. All the good stuff was in the 2nd half.
Coherence: 1
(2 = Perfectly crafted story, no missing links, well-thought out, whoever wrote this is a genius;
1.5 = The story seems to have no flaws but it isn't a very challenging story to write;
1 = The story has some flaws in it so the flow isn't really that good, something feels off;
0 = Some scenes strayed too far away from the plot, not properly concluded)
- It's not like I'm saying that the movie is incoherent but the love story felt a little out of place. Yes, it was the main reason why the 'war' broke out but the love angle in this story didn't fit in.
Movie:
Execution: 2
(2 = The director did a magnificent job, the movie was so clean and it felt so real;
1.5 = Above average but not totally impressive;
1 = It was okay but it didn't blow me away;
0 = Did the director have such a low standard?)
- Great attention to detail - one of the things I look for in a movie. This movie had that. There were some flaws but they were minimal enough to be overlooked.
Effect: 2
(2 = Brought out all the right emotions from me (cry, laugh, get angry, cringe... etc), left me in awe;
1 = Almost cried, almost laughed, almost got angry.
0 = It didn't affect me at all.)
- I'm giving it a perfect score for evoking the feeling of wanting the lead to take revenge on the guys who beat him up.
Acting: 2
(2 = The actors were completely lost in their characters, they gave me goosebumps;
1 = The actors were good but the roles weren't really challenging;
0 = The actors need to attend more acting workshops)
Casting: 1
(2 = It was a cast made in heaven, the acting and the faces were perfect for the roles;
1 = The actors didn't make much impression;
0 = They should have given the role to better actors)
Compactness: 1
(2 = Didn't blink even once afraid to miss a thing;
1 = Skipped some parts but didn't blink on some;
0 = Skipped more than watched)
Cinematography: 1
(2 = Blew me away, creatively done;
1 = Just okay, nothing special;
0 = Did they even have budget for this movie?)
Scoring: 1
(2 = Helped in bringing out the viewer's emotions and I loved the soundtrack;
1.5 = The scoring matched the scenes or there's at least one song that I loved;
1 = At least the movie had a soundtrack;
0 = I don't remember if it had one)
Recommend? 1
(2 = You'll miss half of your life if you don't watch this;
1 = If you like the genre, watch it;
0 = You won't miss anything if you don't watch this)
- If only I could recommend the last hour... The movie starts off slow and very boring but the last hour makes up for that. The second half is action-packed and fast-paced, which is why I loved it.
- I didn't like the love angle though. It felt out of place. It didn't affect me at all. The story would've been better if the writer/director just used some other reason why the lead and his boss had a falling apart. Besides, the love angle was so predictable.
Total Rating: 3.25/5
