Rampage Was Directed By Brad Payton And Stars Dwayne

Johnson and Naomi Harris and is based off the midway series of video games that began in 1986 with the arcade game Rampage, which was eventually ported over to the UK. The basic premise of the games was that you were a human that was turned into a giant monster after being experimented on and you could control that monster and destroy cities that was all. It was just being a monster leveling cities. It was a blast. I’ve always enjoyed the Rampage games and so I was excited to see what could happen on the big screen when it came to adapting this even though video game movies historically Don’t really go over very well and in this adaptation, Dwayne Johnson plays a primatologist who shares a unique bond with a gorilla named George.

He Knows Sign Language They Communicate.

with each other they care for each other, but when a scientific experiment goes awry. George gets infected with it as well as a reptile and a wolf. They get gigantic and they all come to Chicago to destroy it and the only one that can save the city and hopefully. George is the rock I’ll put it this way if you saw San Andreas or journey to the mysterious Island.

Both Films Have Starred Dwayne Johnson

both films that were directed by Brad Payton. Just like Rampage, you know pretty much what this movie’s gonna feel like all three of those movies are the definition of popcorn films. They’re not going to leave much of an impact they’re watchable, but in the end you’re probably going to forget about them, and when it comes to rampage that’s pretty much how I felt this is an extremely cheesy film with. Some truly awful dialogue and characters that make decisions at the last minute that solve all of their problems. Mass death is not taken very seriously in the film.

Some Deaths Are Even Portrayed As

a pratfall like for a laugh, which was a little off-putting but for the most part. I feel like most people are going to go to rampage to watch monsters destroy cities which I know that’s why I went because that’s what the game is unfortunately, you have to tread through a lot of movie to get to any of that which is really just the last 20 minutes which can be taken at face value. You can take a gigantic pile of popcorn and just put it on your face and watch the last 20 minutes of rampage and probably enjoy it but everything up until that felt like a Michael Bay movie there. So many jokes that don’t land They are like three or four characters introduced in the first act that disappear and are never heard from again. I like Jeffrey Dean Morgan, I think he’s very talented you’ve heard of people chewing up the scenery.

Im Pretty Sure Jeffrey Dean Morgan Actually

ate this whole movie because his character is so larger-than-life and that’s one of my biggest issues with the film the human beings in this movie actually feel more like videogame characters than the monsters Jeffrey Dean Morgan, especially but the rock Holy blumin. This guy survives everything. He gets in a helicopter on top of a building that’s crumbling and he just comes up with a plan and it just works things like this happen throughout the entire film. This guy is a human punching bag he gets beat up every two seconds and somehow survives. There’s no realism to it.

Its Not Like A Film Like Say

die hard where you understand that John UK is within a few inches of his life. But the way it’s told is serious and realistic and you can buy into it and rampage things happen that would only happen in a video game and it’s being transferred from a video game and so perhaps that’s why they felt it was okay But I feel like this film was so far fetched I just started to check out but easily the aspect of the film I didn’t care for the most were the villains. This movie needed to have an excuse for this scientific experiment that made all of this chaos happen. So we have two people who work at this agency who don’t give a blumin about anybody who want to see the world destroyed for. For money, Their motivation is money and we cut back to them constantly and they might as well be like stroking a giant mustache and just going like this and and laughing like they’re a Bond villain from the 1960s.

It Was Really Bad And The Performances Didnt

work either and one of the most hilarious parts of these villains is that they have an actual arcade coin-op cabinet for rampage in their office and you can see it clear as day in multiple shots. I get that it’s an Easter egg because this movie’s rampage, but why in the world do these higher-ups at this company who only care about people’s money and are sending three monsters to Chicago to destroy the city for no reason other than they want to sell stuff and get rich? Why do they have a rampage arcade machine in their office? I’ve always. Rock I like him in his wrestling days I’ve liked him in his acting days. He is easily one of the most charismatic and likable guys working in film. There’s a reason he’s as famous as he is, and he certainly is not the problem here.

The Real Issue Is The Screenplay.

It also doesn’t give much of anything for Naomi Harris to do who basically runs around asking the rock constantly what’s the plan what’s the plan what’s the plan every once in a while she’ll figure out some tech device that she maybe knows from this place she used to work and she can work that real quick. She busts through glass once in a unique way, but for the most part she’s just running around going like this trying to figure out what to do looking to the rock for leadership and it just got really old. After a while, the characters in the movie are more video game characters than the actual monsters and I just wanted to see them destroy a city and have a big battle that’s one of my biggest problems with the video game adaptations. The studio’s that try to adapt to video games.

They Dont Know Why People Like The Video

games that’s one of the reasons I like the newest Tomb Raider. It felt like the game with this film. It’s like yeah you can’t really make a feature-length movie with just monsters destroying cities after a while it’ll get monotonous. You have to have some people involved. But all of the worst video game adaptations.

Dont Understand Why The Video Games

themselves are as good as they are, and they try to add all this stuff that the video game fans don’t even want to see and I won’t. It of course, but the ending of the film leaves so many questions if you think about it for more than 30 seconds, and it just feels like the studio was really hoping you wouldn’t do that again you don’t go to rampage, expecting poetry or Shakespeare or you know oscar-worthy filmmaking but I think sometimes writers get together and and they hope that you don’t expect that and they hope that you will give that past of the film that oh it’s okay you’re not supposed to take it seriously and that’s kind of what it felt like what the Reiter’s it just felt like they weren’t really taking it seriously. This could have been a really fun guilty pleasure style movie and in the end it’s just a movie that audiences are going to go to and turn their brains off and forget about within seconds for some. might be all you wanted as a fan of the games. I think I wanted a little bit more.

I Wanted Some More Care To

the human beings in the movie. One really cool choice that would have really helped the film in the games. As I said you’re a person that’s transformed into a monster. It’s not just like random animals that got really big like in the film that would have added more depth that would have made it more morally confusing like do we try to destroy this monster, or is there a way that we try to stop it because we know it’s a person like there’s just that would have been a really interesting moral dilemma. In the middle of this movie where monsters are destroying cities, which again, I must say that’s what I wanted to see and when that happened the movie was.

Really Fun Everything Else Though Leading Up To

that was just really bland I’m gonna give rampage a c-minus like I said if you’ve seen Brad Peyton’s other films with the rock Journey to the Mysterious Island or San Andreas. You can probably guess what Rampage is going to be like, and I think I wanted a little bit more out of it guys thank you so much as always for watching look forward to more reviews very soon.
