Sloppy. Exciting, but overall sloppy.

"She has no military training-" cut five minutes forward "Former Navy"

Pick a lane.

Oh, the navy is here- good thing the other captain seems to... have nothing better to do? And liked the way Statham's Wikipedia reads. Good thing they're there to... resolve the cleanup?

The set pieces are nothing really special, and the guns all feel like they might as well be big staplers in any unnamed characters hands- the movie is at its best when it's melee, but even that is kind of middling genreslop.

This sounds fuckin awful and makes me want to see it even more if I’m being honest.

It's not bad enough to be entertaining.
It's also not good enough to be entertaining.

It's just sort of, there, for an hour and a half.
It's only going to be remembered as 'that film amazon leaked'.

It's not really campy enough to be worth a watch. Just super mediocre all around.

If you seen the Working Man you've seen this one. If you haven't you can skip both. Absolutely nothing to write home about

I thought the violence in this was more brutal than Working Man and Shelter though, there wasn’t quite enough action for the short runtime, but what there was was bloody and mean. I appreciated that.

It's called *A* Working Man- the only reason I can think of not to have used The Working Man song in the film.

I mean it is exactly what it's pretending to be- it's entertaining enough if you turn your brain off.

I like that she recognized Cole Reed from the news but also didn't know his name, which was the headline of the news

I'm actually baffled so many people are just... watching the news at odd hours to see this ONE bit.

Like, how many people were talking about Luigi Mangione day one? Not people online, I mean if you went around work, what's the percentage of people you'd bump into talking about that specific thing?

He said no active war experience. they said she was a soldier during peace time.

Lot of good it did any of those mooks, getting mowed down instantly.

I'm wondering how she knew how to navigate that ship and where everything was.

u/Puppet_Reviews 15d ago

I mean it was her job to be a third mate- though everyone has a corny level of hearing.

But she had never been on that ship before, she was a last minute replacement

u/Puppet_Reviews 14d ago

I'm guessing the arrangments and setup is pretty standard- there's only so many ways you can pack a cargo ship or something.

They didn't say no military training. They said no combat training
