Review of Brawl in Cell Block 99 (2017) by Thepinkpanther — 07 Sep 2018
Some movies are so bad they become entertaining, this one, however, fails to do even that. The dialogues are bad and sound forced. The characters are stereotypical to the point it is impossible to identify with any of them. Brad (ok ok Bradley we get it) is some sort of machine void of all sentiment who always comes out on top kind of like a Bollywood badass but without the bright colours and the dancing.
Even tho this movie is way too long we didn't get to know most of the characters. The evil Korean abortionist, for example, doesn't serve the plot whatsoever.
Even the violence is unconvincing, partly because of the horrible effects and also because I didn't really care if any of the characters got their arm snapped like a breadstick or not.
All in all, I went against my gut instinct and watched this movie because of the great reviews and boy was I wrong to do so.
