Plot Dissolves Quickly As Does Any Concern For The Characters.
23 January 2023
Quick Review: You will miss nothing if you skip this turkey.

Supporting Details: I watched Bring Him Back Dead (2022) without expecting all that much as it looked like all the good stuff was edited into the trailer and preview. I figured that if the movie delivered even some of what was promised then it may be average or slightly above. But then the movie started and that assumption went downhill fast. My disdain for the movie genre where the least bad guy is presumed to be hero is growing rapidly. All the more so when said "least bad" bad guy makes increasingly illogical and inconsistent decisions. BHBD does not deliver any honorable outcomes and implies that the whole world is corrupt--and it does neither well. Directors / story writers who have certain scenes in mind that they want to include in the finished product but do not take the time make the plot logic support the placement hurt their movies a lot. In the case of BHBD it is like they did not even try. If you watch this stinker, please post any logical explanations for: 1. Diamonds Handed to Corrupt Cop, 2. How The Rats (plural yes many) were able to communicate outside their circle, 3. Why on earth any criminal would voluntarily let their guns get locked up, 4. How any deals could have been made in advance or during from the story lines we had, and 5. Why the senseless deaths were included. Ultimately this movie scores two stars from me for having some beautiful settings and camera work. I rounded up to three stars as they did tell a story kinda beginning to end consistent with the plot. I tend to rate plots with good guys winning, great character growth, inspiring decision making, and the like much higher than the mess that is BHBD. In the end, I had zero interest in knowing what happened to any of the characters as they had worn out their welcome on my screen.
