To me, this movie is perfection.
When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Bruce (Ry Barrett) is a cable guy and vigilante. His wife (Tianna Nori) was a victim of violence and he spends his spare time caring for her when he is not in riot gear knocking in the heads of a gang called the "Mandrills." We see him a beat up a few of them, some victim group therapy and then we see Bruce go off a cliff as he goes after people that don't quite come up to the bad guy level.The film was rather pointless as was Ry Barrett's character.Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.
A man takes care of his wife who was injured in a shooting losing the use of her legs. When he's not doing that he is The Demolisher. Dressed up in an outfit ripped out of The Exterminator and Rampage he goes around bashing heads.This could have been an awesome grindhouse type but it just didn't know what to do. The pivotal plot point was when his necklace got found at a theater and she keeps it. He then spends the rest of the film tracking her down, killing whoever gets in the way. This is the part that rips from Terminator.I didn't really mind that nothing was original and the story was awful. I did mind when the Demolisher was doing some acting. This guy is the poster boy for anger. He is always shown expressing anger. If he was the Hulk he would never be in human form. If you want a good laugh you should watch this but if you're after a decent flick don't look here.
The poster is riddled with comments from supposedly professional reviewers raving about how amazing this movie was.But don't be fooled by them cause they clearly were under the influence (of money most likely) when they wrote those.Don't get me wrong, there is some talent behind the cinematography of the movie, for such a low budget movie it looks pretty good.But the script is horrendous, it tries so hard to be artsie, abstract and distant (probably to hide the fact that the plot doesn't make any sense) that it's borderline impossible to follow at times.And no the movie is not too complex for me or anything it has nothing to do with that, the characters and script simply does not follow any kind of logic.There's not really all that much more to say really.
There is nothing to say than - painfully bad. It is a sorry excuse for a movie. A waste of time and possibly very bad for your nerves. There is not enough substance for 10 sentences. At times it is an immature attempt to a suspense. No substance whatsoever. Too long with not enough story. Demented and unrealistic. Stupid to the core. Awful.
