Well, granted, I must admit that I was expecting quite a bit more from writer and director R. L. Scott than what was actually delivered here in this 2021 action movie titled "Lazarus".
And it was a shame because there was so much potential readily available here, but the movie ended up as being a slow paced and rather uninteresting one. And I have to admit that I was quickly losing interest in the movie as the storyline was so unfathomably boring and the characters were just drones milling about with no personalities or anything.
Initially I was a bit thrilled with the movie as it proved to be interesting enough, sort of had that "Spawn" comic book anti-hero thing going on. But then everything just turned to rubbish and was killed off most horribly by an utter lack of storyline and pacing.
Visually then "Lazarus" was not impressive, and it definitely didn't feel like a 2021 action movie. So there is no need to amp up your level of expectations for this movie.
"Lazarus" was a swing and a miss from writer and director R. L. Scott, especially since there was just so much wasted potential readily available here.
My rating of "Lazarus" lands on a mere three out of ten stars, as the movie turned out to be more boring than anything else.
