I wasn't planning to go into details, as I don't think there is a point to it. So my first paragraph says it all.
All I will say is this: I have watched all sorts of movies in theaters, am a big movie and cinema fan. I have seen the best and the worst. And never have I left a movie theater before the end of the show... until today. The movie started at 23:48 and I was out of the doors by 00:11. I am not joking and I am not overreacting.
Nothing more needs to be said about this.
Well as it turns out I need to add more to this before I am allowed to post so here is some more info for those that got this far.
in 20 minutes of movie time that I managed to make myself sit through:
half the time was spent showing scenes from the cult 80's hit movie so the new movie offered nothing.
the old actors from the cult movie should have stayed retired as their acting was awful and the 2 scenes portraying the "new class" seemed to go out of its way to show their lack of skill.
there was no script to speak of. it seemed to me that the movie was gonna end up a 1 hour mash up of old scenes and hastily put together scenes to try to pass as a new movie.
Overall it seemed to me as a desperate effort to use an old brand name to milk some cash from people with absolutely no intent of giving anything to the viewer. This isn't a remake, it isn't a reboot, this is a sequel that uses the exact same name as the original which should illustrate how little they were planning to offer to people.
