Kill Shot (2023)
1/10
Proving you can't make something fast, good and cheap
15 August 2023
I always wondered why it took two years to release this movie after they wrapped up production, and now I know why. They needed some time to help them forget how bad of a movie they made. The basics of filmmaking were ignored in making this movie. It would have been much better to market this film as comical action or campy, but when they feel they made a serious film, it's just delusional and sad. I would be embarrassed to put this out there.

Aside from the opening scene, the writing, acting, and actions sequences are all horrible and laughable. The editing and framing of these scenes are very awkward as well. The director tries to distract the viewer by having Rachel run around in underwear or a bra. She looks like a puppet and has limited acting range. Rib looks like a soap opera star looking to extend his career. His dream sequence with Rachel is cringy and sophomoric at best.

The action sequences are silly and sloppy, and the villains are laughably incompetent and allow themselves to be killed as if they never had any fighting or combat experience. I like how Rib was able to take out a sniper by spinning around with a handgun, ha ha. Rachel character was so dumb she couldn't undo the ratcheting strap holding her down when her wrists were held together with zip ties but her fingers and arms were free!

It's clear they casted Rachel to draw her social media followers to watch this movie. It will probably be the only people who watch this film. What I can't understand is why Rachel would sign on to more films with this silly production company.
