Monster Hunter (2020)
What an awful movie. Like I knew it was going to be bad, but there are some decent stars in it, but dear God they have to be broke to do this movie. Overall, the injuries the characters sustain have no lasting effect, apparently a minigun and a .50 Cal machine gun do NO DAMAGE to monsters.
Synopsis
Army Ranger team (somehow attached to NATO???) goes through a mysterious portal that sends them to another “World.” In that world Monsters exist. They land get attacked and they meet new people and fight to make it home.
Review
What an awful movie. Like I knew it was going to be bad, but there are some decent stars in it, but dear God they have to be broke to do this movie. Overall, the injuries the characters sustain have no lasting effect, apparently a minigun and a .50 Cal machine gun do NO DAMAGE to monsters (Good note in case the Monster’s attack), but a bone sword can? What in the absolute hell is that?
There are some CRAZY inconsistencies in this movie. I can’t tell you how many times she uses the same move to kill a monster. Also, somehow her heart stops (according to the terrible medic who doesn’t do CPR correctly), and is caught by spiders but doesn’t die, where one of the other teammates is growing spider eggs? She survives so many times because plot. There is no logical reason for her to survive. Also, these people go DAYS without water and make a point to show that they don’t have it.
As you can tell, I couldn’t stand this movie. I stopped it for a work call and almost just stopped it. The ending is worse that I expected. My Dad MIGHT watch it because of Mila but that is a hard might. He’d have to be bored. My mom would never watch it. In total, I’d say its like a 4 and that is mainly because the monsters look and act cool. Their consistency is still bad, but better than the actors (What I mean is that the second ranger team lands in the new world is able to drive and walk on these sand dunes and nothing till they get near a giant skeleton where the Diablos attacks them. Later, you walk on the sand and the Diablos will find you and attack, but if you stop it has no idea where you are. Makes no sense!).
My Rating
Made for TV movie from the Sci-Fi Channel. Fight me on this. It isn't good. 4, like you should go watch 4 of the Resident Evil movies before you watch this 4 of a movie.
Parental Rating
My dad will watch it. Nothing crazy going on. He won't like it, but he'd watch it if it was on. My mom could care less. There is nothing that would dissuade her from watching, it is just of no interest. Its so bad, that would expect them to avoid this movie.
