Headline #2: Imagine if John Wick turned out terrible, that is Monkey Man.
Headline #3: John Wick x Skinamarink
Most people won't get the last headline, but if you've seen Skinamarink, you know what it's like to watch a movie where you can't see anything.
This movie is a complete mess from a story perspective, a filmmaking perspective and an action perspective. Everything about it is hectic and frantic. The story doesn't go farther than the most basic revenge plots. We jump from scene to scene seemingly at random.
But by far the worst part is the action. You seriously can't see anything. It's some of the worst filmed action I've ever watched. Anyone who thinks this action is good hasn't seen good fight scenes. It's atrocious.
There are constant close-ups, shaky-cam and quick cuts. Even a car chase scene will frantically jump from shot to shot, swinging the camera. A foot-chase scene will have the cameraman running without a stabilizer. It's almost as if they don't want you to be able to watch.
I was completely bored and basically fed up with the movie, hoping it would be over soon. But there was still an hour left. So I did something I almost never do: I walked out. I normally tell people to make their own opinions on movies, but this one is horrendous. It's not even worth watching for free if you have the streaming service that picks it up.
