Never Back Down 2: The Beatdown (2011)
So bad it's bad! Great drinking game movie!
Movie follows 4 male characters who each are struggling with their own life events.
One leads father died and family is struggling with money
One leads boxing career has ended due to a eye injury and still wants to prove he has what it takes to fight and be a man lol
Other lead is struggling with family issues because their dad left to be with another man.
My favourite character the mental issue comic book store employee who needed to learn to fight to avenge his random street stabbing.
They are all going to prove how tough they are by entering a fighting competition called the 'beat off' or something like that
Filled with standard martial art tropes and awful acting
Would be a great drinking game movie every time someone said beatdown or go go plata.
Nintendo Quest (2015)
Awful! Depressing movie!
At the start of the film you meet Jay and his best friend. Jay has loved Nintendo since a child and wants to travel across North America in hopes to collect all Nintendo cartridges produced for the system.
The film has Jay's best friend as a narrator, explaining the quest and a little history of Nintendo and games (best part of film). The rest of the film follows jay slumping about retail stores, collectors and rummage sales trying to find and complete the collection. At no point in the movie does Jay seem happy about this quest or that he is enjoying himself. He picks up game after game with a little number tally of the games acumulated in the corner of the screen. He does not give any feedback what games are his favourite, why he has this passion or show any emotion when he does get a rare or good game.
Half way threw the film the subject switches to Jay's fathers passing. He tells the audience how he is happy he is dead, and how he was a tyrant. The only explanation given for his father being such a awful individual was that he did not like Video games? It was really hard not to turn the film off after this point!
After researching this film I found out it was a Kickstarter project which was donated around $40,000. Essentially people donated this money so a little spoiled brat could have a complete Nintendo collection and received a subpar movie with no passion or substance
