I tried to give this a 2 star rating because most of the fight scenes weren't bad, and some were pretty good. but EVERYTHING else in this movie is abysmal. i couldn't believe it. all the usual stuff like acting, dialogue, characters, etc. and also some unusual stuff. i started watching on fast like 5 minutes in, and gave up after about a half hour. i skipped around and watched the fight scenes. i even skipped the other action (guns/explosions).
i don't usually notice details like this, which illustrates how obvious and glaring some of these issues were. there was a fight during a storm with lightning, but every time the lightning flashes, it lights everything up yellow. lightning flashes white not yellow. there was another scene where it was so obvious they were using lighting from behind our view when we are facing the sun. some of the prop stuff was laughable. when a hand gets cut off, not only does the severed hand look fake, but you can clearly see that the arm is not much longer and the guy is holding something that is squirting blood. and the worst offense, someone wearing a tank top undershirt gets shot like 4 times, and not only does the blood spatter look fake, as he falls in slow motion you can CLEARLY see the packets or whatever they use underneath his shirt, you can even see them move back and forth as he hits the ground. hilarious (1 viewing)
