Could have been a gem
1 May 2024
Unfortunately the direction totally ruined this for me. Camera so shaky I felt like my head was spinning. And when action does happen the camera just turns away. Performances were above average, the kids were pretty good but the effects were fairly poor. I usually love little movies like this but just can't get past the camera work. I swear it was recorded on a bouncy castle.

Soundtrack was nice and Cage is as solid as he always is.

Interesting monster designs but again, we could hardly make out anything we were seeing when they showed up.

Overall had a feeling of "A Quiet Place" but smaller which I can appreciate.

Little for fans of the game

Warning: Spoilers
As a fan of the games in the late 90s I was looking forward to this. First episode had a bit of car combat and seemed interesting. From then on there was really very little car combat. If there was ever any conflict everyone got out their cars. Mario was 1 of the best video game adaptions as it incorporated the gameplay very well.

Tone is all over the place and the main 2 characters don't have chemistry. "Quiet" Is a very obnoxious character. She constantly make's the situation worse from acting like a baby. Giving their new car a flat tire, losing the old car then blaming John. She was by far the worst thing. I like Anthony Mackie, but his character was also quite annoying with bad comedy.
