Review of Focus

Focus (II) (2015)
2/10
The most joyless and boring experience I have ever sat through.
31 May 2020
I could not actually sit through this thing. I literally couldn't.

Let's talk about the pros.

PROS:

Margot Robbie is nice to look at, I suppose. The title is the most intriguing title I have ever heard of for a film. Will Smith seems as if he's trying to make this film worth watching. The soundtrack (with The Rolling Stones and other fantastic old rock songs like that) is too good for this hot garbage. The cinematography is some of the best of 2015, the only reason this film is not a 1/10. The twists are, ummmmm--

NEGATIVES The screenplay SUCKSSSSSSSSSSSSS. The acting SUCKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. There is no charisma at all with the characters and Will Smith is just boring to watch due to this. IT WAS BORRRRRINGGGGGGGGGGG. It feels as if it is one big first act and one "two second" second and one "half-second" third act. The film is annoying. The film acts like it's so fun when it's really not AT ALL. The pace is some of the worst, second thought, the worst pacing I have ever seen in a film that's shorter than 120 minutes. It is so forgettable and overlylong, I'd rather watch a SuperMarioLogan video, It might be a awful video, but at least it isn't overly long.

I wish I could continue writing this review but it hurts to type this. It hurts to think about this boring POS, I'd just recommend watching literally anything else, like literally, ANYTHING. Go watch literally anything else. You'll just want to run out in the middle of the road and scream for someone to run you over by the 1 hour and 20 min mark, which btw, I stopped watching the film at that point because it was giving me a headache to continue watching.

PS. THE ENDING IS THE WORST ENDING OF ANY COMEDY THAT HAS COME OUT IN THE ENTIRE CENTURY
