Target List

I enjoyed their last film Carp-e Diem so I gave their new movie a try and wow it's even better than their first! This movie has it all. It looks amazing, it sounds fantastic, and the story is just a fun family adventure. Carp-E Diem was more of an adult themed movie this was much more family friendly. Yet still such a fun ride. You fall in love with the absolutely gorgeous Donna and the quirky Clyde almost instantly. I thought the film was going to be a serious action type film but about 20 min in you realize it's an adventure film with a sense of comedy. The film will leave you feeling warm and fuzzy and waiting for the next film from this talented team.

The movie Target List is a thrilling and entertaining ride, blending action and comedy while shedding light on the fraudulent medical health system and the need for alternative cures. The endearing protagonists, Donna and Clyde, have a captivating chemistry that adds to the enjoyment of the film, leaving the audience wanting more. Target List maintains its serious subject while the director cleverly weaves in comic twists to alleviate tension. The talented cast delivers an outstanding performance, and the plot's ingenuity keeps the audience hooked. The film's satisfying climax sees the triumph of good over evil. Both the writers and directors, masterfully justify the plotline.

"Target List" is a 2023 gripping action-comedy that keeps you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. Directed by Andrew Arguello and MJ Palo, the film masterfully combines intense action sequences with perfect comedic timing.

The story revolves around five members of the research team that are targeted by an assassin hired by the big pharma. However, two researchers escape the attack and find themselves framed for the crime and on the killer's target list. The audience hold onto their seats as they witness a highly gripping plot.

The film's pacing is superb, maintaining a perfect balance between adrenaline-pumping sequences and moments of suspenseful dialogue. The action scenes are expertly choreographed and visually stunning, keeping the viewers engrossed and thrilled throughout. The cinematography is top-notch, with stunning visuals that add to the overall intensity of the film.

Additionally, the film explores themes of trust, loyalty, and redemption, giving it an emotional depth that goes beyond the surface-level action. The screenplay is intelligent and keeps the audience guessing, providing a few surprises along the way.

As far as I am concerned, I think "Target List" is a highly enjoyable action-thriller that packs a punch with its well-crafted action sequences, strong performances, and engaging storyline. While it may not break new ground in terms of originality, it succeeds in delivering an exhilarating cinematic experience that will leave audiences satisfied.

Target List is a unique movie in that it has many things going for it simultaneously. For one, it's a great story driven by two protagonists with fantastic onscreen chemistry. Secondly, I personally like the big pharma conspiracy stuff a lot. Thirdly, the dark comedic lines cleverly placed throughout the film's script add a special something to an already great movie.

I had never watched Rachel Alig or Justin Ray in a film prior to watching this production. I was honestly impressed by their performances.

I have watched a few independent films in my life, but this one is special.

Target List may not be a big budget Hollywood movie, but it does feel like everyone involved was giving it their all, from the actors to the director and everyone behind the camera. It looked good from scene to scene and about as well-shot and edited as a movie from a larger studio might be. The chemistry between the two leads, Rachel Alig and Justin Ray, is very charming. They have a kind of bumbling, comedic energy of two people way too deep in a situation they don't know anything about. It actually reminded me a little of Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. I just wish that had been the vibe from the get-go.

It's marketed as a crime/action movie but there really isn't a lot of action. The beginning really sets it up as a more serious action kind of movie, but there are a few gunshots here and there, a couple of pretty short chases, and that's about it. And not all of the dramatic plot points hold water under scrutiny. Then, once Donna (Alig) and Clyde (Ray) get together on the run, it clearly goes for laughs rather than tension or even logic.

All in all, I wish that either the comedy had hit harder throughout the whole movie, or that the action elements had been bigger. Even so, it wasn't a bad time! It's not exactly high-octane action, and some of the logic falls flat, but for all that, it is still fun to watch the characters run around and get out of wild situations by a wing and a prayer. So, for a pretty fun time, go for Target List.
