This is just embarrassing

Truly, what an idiotic movie this is. Guy Ritchie leveled up his game in the recent years and started to direct one and even two movies each year. I guess he still has a lot of ideas and he keeps casting big stars, although all of his last movies are complete garbage. Ritchie's stories were always balancing on the edge of the logic, focusing mainly on posturing instead of building a plausible plot. But in this movie he just decided that he doesn't want to balance anymore, and it's better just to jump head first into the absurdity and the nonsense. And I would treat it differently if it was done with some clever finesse, dark humor or a healthy sarcasm. But this movie is not even close. It's so tedious and boring, the actors are sleepwalking through their lines, even the action scenes are horrible and lazy. There is nothing clever or thoughtful in this movie at all, just bunch of boring scenes on poorly constructed sets with low budget, because most of the money went to salaries. The writing of this movie is atrocious and has no redeeming qualities at all. Absolute garbage.

Yeah it is quite mediocre. An accurate description would probably be a B-movie with A-class* actors. It kind of reminded me of "Inglourious Basterds" except it is worse and "Inglourious Basterds" was far from being Quentin Tarantino's better movies. Babs Olusanmokun sounds like they forced him to watch this movie three times before acting every scene so he sounds like he is falling asleep any minute. Also what's with just about every Hollywood movie now lasting 2+ hours? Seems kind of contradictory with today's TikTok generation who probably on average have the attention span to watch a few minutes of video before losing interest. I guess that is one way to make sure your movie fails.

I think what bothered me most about this movie is we get a pretty good opening with a great introduction to what I thought were the main characters, but then when the actual story gets going, it turns into the Girlboss Marjorie and Mr.Heron show where the only concern the story has is Marjorie getting on Heinrich Luhr's good side which she ultimately fails at. Everything the movie wastes its time on could have been summed up in a 30 second conversation over a two way radio ("We've got a bomb in place to knock out the power and we've hired some local mercs to help out") but no, the female character has to be front and centre no matter what - oooo, look at girlboss Marjorie shoot any gun "better than any man" (direct quote from the movie) look at her sing, look at her boss around the horrible guy running the island and make him look stupid. Wow, she's awesome - pardon me while I slip into a coma from boredom. We see nothing of Gus March-Phillips and his crew or Gubbins or Fleming. That's Ian Fleming, the guy who wrote the James Bond novels - yeah he doesn't rate for any screen time. I guess they were all just sitting around doing nothing?
