Wu Assassins (2019)
Entertaining enjoyable show, Terrible Soundtrack
It's got a decent enough plot and characters to just sit back and enjoy it for the action/crime/martial arts show that it is. It's not going to win any awards but at the same time it doesn't disappoint for what it is...
That being except "The Soundtrack". What in god's earth were they thinking when they put this together? The fighting scenes which are choreographed well enough are ruined by cheesy music that makes you caught between a state of wanting to take it seriously and have a bit of a chuckle.
Promising serious. Netflix, to save this show and improve it dramatically. Please fire whoever is in charge of placing music in scenes because they're absolute horrible at their job. Thanks
Colombiana (2011)
High expectations low outcome
Cataleya escapes the cartel who murdered her family. A file is given to her which she hands into the US embassy, gets her a passport and we never even find out what that "important info" even was. When back in America she manages to escape at the airport and somehow knows how to get to Chicago from Miami, boards a bus no questions asked.
The most laughable scene in the movie is her first day at school. Her uncle Emilio pulls out a gun in front of the school during broad daylight and empties a whole clip into someone driving a car and murders him just to prove a point to Cataleya. Not to mention the dozen witnesses that saw it. He proceeds to stay on the scene till cops arrive, then casually walks away with no one knowing who the mystery shooter.
When Cataleya grows up she has the abilities of a highly trained special forces/CIA operative, but who taught her all this?? Now her entrance into the building. What could be possibly better to avoid harm and remain undetected for a covert mission then swim in a pool full of sharks in the middle of the complex but apparently guarded by no one?? Skipping even showing this, but she also kills bout 12 guards all by herself in minutes.
Manages to set up a sniper near a CIA building, nope don't think so. Oh she shoots at the building to and disappears into thin air.
The 3 stars it receives from me is because Zoe Saldana is definitely sexy. Other then that, it was a flop don't waste your time, this movie sucked
