To pin point what’s really wrong with this movie because it should have worked but after some real long thought I realized I was putting more effort than the filmmakers.

Cast was fine, in fact it was better then this movie deserved but the dialog was bad. Almost like it was written by someone who thinks “yeah this sounds cool”. At points the one liners where so bad I half expected the music cue from csi Miami to kick in.

It’s just kinda bland in terms of cinematography. The sets were serviceable, and the plot was... meh. Between the average action and bland characters and just horrible dialogue I just realized life was too short and turned it off.… Expand

That's too bad because the concept of the story is actually cool and entertaining. But all the the PC stuff felt forced and pulls you out of the story. Also, the pop music they use in this film is out of place and down right ridiculous.

Being a woman myself, I'm a big fan of strong female characters, like Ripley in the Alien series and Sarah Connor in T2, just to name a couple. Unfortunately, Charlize Theron was not able to pull it off with her forced tomboyish IDGAF behavior. It just wasn't believable. But kudos to her, she did the best with what she was given.

Oh and I do take note what Netflix and the director of this film tried to villainize. But I'm not surprised anymore in 2020.… Expand

Todo potencial do filme é ofuscado pela clara decisão de girar tudo em torno do resultado, e não trabalhar na premissa de forma geral. Muito comum por parte da Netflix, diga-se de passagem.

Imortalidade é um tema rico, carregado de ideiasTodo potencial do filme é ofuscado pela clara decisão de girar tudo em torno do resultado, e não trabalhar na premissa de forma geral. Muito comum por parte da Netflix, diga-se de passagem.

Imortalidade é um tema rico, carregado de ideias desde grandiosidade a melancolia depressiva. Dito isso, sabemos que a abordagem aqui poderia acontecer de diversas formas. Porém, ao invés de trabalhar temas do gênero, o filme resolve entregar o que a maior parte do publico quer ver e tenta ser vago de toda forma possível, para que qualquer um possa entender o que está se passando na tela.

Primeiro de tudo, os temas abordados não são ruins, mas a forma como eles são apresentados - de maneira vaga e com uma seriedade ilusória - é o que mais me irrita. A obra aborda homossexualidade, emancipação, representatividade negra, melancolia, loucura, solidão etc; e se eu não conhecesse a netflix, diria que os três primeiros temas ditos acima só tem um espaço na obra pra agradar o publico em geral. Não há impacto na trama quanto ao relacionamento de Joe e Nicky; A emancipação da protagonista, Andy, soa forçada e militante, visto que seu desenvolvimento é nulo e nunca fica claro o porque ela é a BOSS - me desculpem, mas umas cenas de ação e o fato de que ela é a mais velha não me convencem. Inclusive, aquela cena onde os personagens explicam o sonho da Nile, quanto ao passado da Andy, é uma forma terrível e conveniente de desenvolvimento. [Não que a obra tenha alguma verossimilhança. A suspensão da descrença não funciona pois ora a obra se leva a serio demais, ora ela é padrão Netflix]. O Plot relacionado ao Sebastiam é tão mal feito que eu me pergunto: se não acontecesse, faria diferença? E também me leva ao questionamento: quem é mais ingenuo, este personagem ou James Copley, que realmente acreditava numa "mafia farmacêutica" [isso soa tão idiota...]. Já o vilão é um estereotipo podre da... industria farmacêutica? da ciência? da loucura humana? Não sei. Parece que a obra não quer ofender ninguém e se perde na caracterização do mesmo.

O filme tenta meramente abordar melancolia, falta de crença e outros temas relacionados. Mas os diálogos são pobres e limitados. O mesmo acontece quando tentam pôr um peso aos personagens - no que se diz respeito a idade deles. Outra coisa que me incomodou foi o "fan service" de citar o Brasil. Isso só prova mais uma vez que cinema autoral na netflix está longe de acontecer em diversas obras. São paulo está longe de ser relevante, mas "vamos mencionar, assim o publico brasileiro fica contente pelos 2s de atenção."

As cenas de luta são bem coreografadas. Porém, senti falta de um melhor trabalho com a cenografia quanto as coreografias. A cinematografia não é muito clara e não passa muito bem a geografia do local. A trilha sonora é peculiar. Não sei muito bem se essa adição de musicas pop funcionam numa obra cinematográfica cujo tema é meramente sombrio.

Por fim, a Netflix escolhe mais uma vez seguir a formula magica do dinheiro, se distanciando cada vez mais do cinema autoral, e tirando a oportunidade de obras que realmente tenham o que dizer e saibam como o fazer.… Expand

Also, being a highlander fan, I thought the immortality theme could go either way. But I enjoyed it, the way it was presented was done in a smart way, making you understand these characters were intended to have some depth. But then it all started to feel like a cliché. Super predictable. The betrayals and twists. The greedy villain with millions in the bank, a mercenary army for hire and zero depth to his character (we needed another one of these right?). The music used was dreadful (low quality EDM really?) and didn't match any scenes. The fight sequences with blades or blunt weapons felt far fetched but I have to say Charlize did look cool holding her axe. The dialogue was also very weak at certain points.
As positives, some acting was good, and you do feel curious about the history and power of the characters. I really liked the relationship between Nick and Joe, and would have loved to see some flashbacks to its start back in the crusades. Felt curious about the character in the flashback, that is dying with Andy and Quynh next to him, but there was no explanation for this moment. I felt like he knew more information about the immortality powers and had been around even before Andy, nonetheless we are left wondering.
Maybe it will be mentioned in the sequel?
Will still give it a rating of 3 since it has some enjoyable moments and I would watch a sequel, regardless of the various moments that made me cringe.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The beginning is actually really cool & enjoyable. I like the concept, but it gets old very quickly. This movie is packed with so many tired & overused cliches it's unbearable. The plot is so dry & predictable I had to stop & take a break from the movie. No disrespect to Kiki Layne, but please make sure your lead actor is actually at that caliber before hiring them to carry a movie. I don't know, it very well might have just been the rudimentary dialogue & Kiki is actually a phenomenal actor. It is honestly hard to tell. The ADR is sloppy & the music is too on the nose. It's easy to tell that the music was chosen specifically because it featured words that described what was happening in the movie, not because the songs actually fit the tone of the moment. If I could give one piece of advice to the creators of this film it would be this, "Show, don't tell". By this I mean that you do not need a character verbally explaining or commenting on every single action. There are plenty scenarios that can visually explain things without a character saying "empty?" Or repeating another character's statement as a question. Also, the whole thing at the end of a movie where "the mentor repeating a phrase to the new kid that they said earlier to hint the kid in on the plan" thing is not only played out, but it made no sense here either. It was a poor call back, & it strategically made no sense. It worked though, because... you know... they're the heroes. Netflix, I'm not mad... I'm just disappointed.… Expand

However, IGood acting by great actors and a few new ideas about a "superheroes" movie even though they don't have superpowers. I love the diversity in the cast and even in the characters.I am also all for giving a chance to the directo. However, I can't believe the reviews I am reading from "reputable" movie critics. This movie has a lot of holes in a very conventional script. Some ideas are taking from other movies -i.e. "The Immortals" everyone?-. Also, some of the lines are just there to give you background stories, not because the plot requires it or the character should be saying that. Another thing that I found very, very poor is the action sequences and the editing. I just couldn't believe what my eyes were seeing considering the actors in it. A very weak, average movie that tries to set up a franchise with nothing to actually feel like it deserves it.
Don't believe the great reviews that you are reading from prestigious newspapers. I honestly think they are praising this movie for different reasons not for the quality of the film.… Expand

You have a movie where the main characters are centuries old warriors, with experience that makes them the world's most elite special ops team; on top of that they also cannot die.

Okay, I guess they must be up against something serious.....vampires, demons, terminator-style robots? No....basically it's them against Martin Shkreli, the PharmaBro.

I have no idea how a writer and director can take a talented cast and huge budget and still turn in something so unimaginative, derivative and boring. At the beginning I thought to myself, "How cool would it be if this was a stealth Highlander reboot" and they'd completely hidden it from people until release. Unfortunately not. It's apparently based on a graphic novel and has none of the heart, drama or uniqueness of the earlier movie. Overpowered main characters kills waves of faceless drones in a story that seems like it would work as a pilot for a tv series (where you would hope the seasonal arc would introduce antagonists of actual weight) but as a movie It is a by-the-numbers as they come.… Expand

Je dois dire que cette espèce de film m'a aidé également (à me décider) histoire aussi de passer le temps, car cette daube Netflix dure deux plombes entières à mourir d'ennui ! alors à l'issue ou plutôt à l'arrêt de cet étron Netflix (un de plus dans la collection "N") j'ai choisi quelle version de Charlize je préfère : c'est la version brune !

Cela étant dit (et décidé) il faut bien parler du film, de cette espèce de "film", de ce grand vide de téléfilm de deux heures qui brasse des brassées de rien mais surtout de merde pendant deux heures complètes ! ça tient quelque part de l'exploit, car meubler à ce point aussi longtemps avec "rien", on en revient pas... l'action (assez mal faite) est pourtant présente parfois mais c'est comme si il ne se passait... rien. Un prodige, vous dis-je !

Du coup, pour moi qui n'ai pas vu les "Twilight" (pas assez de courage...) je me demande si Old Guard est aussi pathétique que la saga Harlequin des vampires niaiseux ou si c'est plutôt le contraire : faudra-t-il une photo à l'arrivée pour les départager ?

Bon donc, j'aimerais quand même parler de cette production, de cette énième déjection Netflix plus en détail mais je n'ai pas trouvé dans ce "machin" assez de matière pour en parler. Il vaut mieux se torcher le cul avec, que ça serve au moins à quelque chose !… Expand

You witness the brave actions of an entirely minority, female, Marine combat platoon in action. Those things are all over Afghanistan these days, from what I hear . And finally, it’s topped off with the incredibly gory, graphic, and extremely satisfying death of the irredeemably evil, white, cisgender male capitalist who runs a pharmaceutical company... for profit!

A Bunch of immortals go into combat zones without useful gear, and are efficient because of plot armor. Walking through deserts without water or a mask in case of a sandstorm?

The CIA is after them to extract hormones so that a cosmetics company can sell immortal juice. Then a fifth jelly fish human becomes immortal, and joins this band of uncharismatic catwalk models. For some reason the US Army has full female squads that have a serious lack of testosterone, but add just enough of that 'Let a woman do a man's job' expression, only to **** it up even worse.

Characters can teleport across continents, and have a compass in their brains. Next to that, the "bad guys" are also telepathic as they are able to track a bunch of ghosts with no explanation. And if you are a side character, you are useless and just their to comment on how cool the main characters are. So juvenile. Conversations are hollow, with no believable weight behind them. It's like these people have major insecuritie issues, and need constant acknowledging that they are "good." It reminds me so much of Gemini Man. I hate Gemini Man. Question: Why, if they are immortal, do they keep doing things that get them killed? For a bunch of deadly warriors, they aren't very good at staying alive without convenient immortality. They don't question the higher reason behind their immortality, but instead just kill. What a waste. This movie is the definition of contrived, feminist and lazily written fan fiction. It's just entertaining enough that it will keep you interested in seeing where it ends, but it will make you roll your eyes the entire time. It's a terrible movie. I give it a 3/10.… Expand

Every scene takes you out of reality as the characters' idiotic decisions, and the films forced political agenda, is overwhelming.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie was so unbelievably unlikeable. The main characters have nothing going for them. Two of them are centered around being in a same sex relationship. The newcomer barely has any depth to her, she is literally there to just ask questions for EXPOSITION!
The main villain is laughable. " I'm the youngest Big
Pharma CEO and I like money!. The characters that really had anything going for them were Andy and Booker. Honestly, Booker is the only human character in this, and in the end it bites him in the ass. The action was as usual fast paced John Wick-esque scenes. All round bad movie that I think is getting praise because nothing good is coming out right now.… Expand

A racist movie, from the way they portrayed the black woman. She had no control on how she would feel good to be portrayed, because you pay her. But it's pure racist, she's treated bad in the movie and there's no where in the movie where'sA racist movie, from the way they portrayed the black woman. She had no control on how she would feel good to be portrayed, because you pay her. But it's pure racist, she's treated bad in the movie and there's no where in the movie where's she pays back. So what the movie tries to show is no matter how much bad (underlined bad) white people do to black folks they will never have to pay for it. So bad....
I hope this review is approved.… Expand
