The Collective

I watch at least 4-5 Movies a week and have, most of the time done a review each time but this time I didn't watch the movie in its entirety and I most certainly wasn't going to bother with a review because I couldn't get further than about 35 minutes into the movie. I couldn't even give it a single star. From the start, the script, the acting was pretty poor the sound effects and stunt action was less than mediocre. The fact that there were a few big names wasn't enough to make it even worth my effort to watch more than I could stomach. I couldn't actually even say that I understood the whole premise of the Movie but I was not prepared to even try to understand it because what I did see had nothing to redeem it from anything but the "cutting room floor". The $8 million production cost and the $2 million cast + was IMO a total waste of someone's money. The movie is so bad I have to stop myself from continuing to review this Movie for fear of dying of old age before I finish.

This movie is so bad they literally hired the lover from the Hannah Montana Movie to play the main character. Lmao. Plus, Roman from Fast and Furious should only act in Fast and Furious. I would rather watch all the fast and furious movies in one day without drinking water or going to the bathroom. I would rather sit outside in the Georgia heat in the middle of the summer getting bit by mosquitos rather than to watch this movie. I would rather watch the Hannah Montana movie on repeat then watch this movie, and also listen to only Wreaking Ball for 24 hours then watch this movie again ever. I would rather wear a Hawaiian shirt everyday for the rest of my life than to watch this movie. It sucks.

Yeah, I barely made it halfway.

Ruby Rose is just terrible in everything; I have no idea how she got the golden ticket to Hollywood or how she keeps getting gigs. I guess when your first feature film as a lead is deemed unwatchable (Batwoman) you will take what you can get.

I have no clue who the lead guy is, but he seriously looks like the Team America version of Matt Damon.

Now the sad part for me is seeing Don Johnson in this dreck.

Now I know how my parents and grandparents felt when they started seeing the actors and actresses, they loved growing up taking roles in awful films at the end of their careers. :/

If you can make it all the way through this, I commend you.

Beware ! This is NOT a Don Johnson picture. They tricked me into watching because (the still cool) Don Johnson was on the poster. But he is nowhere to be seen in this picture. Blink once with your eyes and you will miss him.

This is a 100% C-movie. Not a B-movie, but a C-movie. It is ridiculously terrible. Such a waste of time of writing this review, but I wanna warn other Don Johnson fans, that they dont fall into the same trap I fell into.

Don Johson still rocks at his old age. He recently made "High Heat", which was surprisingly good fun and thrilling to watch. Action was solid. Some good jokes. My advice: go watch that movie if you are into Don Johnson, instead of this rubbish product called "The Collective"...

This nonsense should be studied in film school on how to not make a film. A fifth grade drama class could write and direct a more entertaining film. It took two writers to come up with a story that's been done thousands of times before, and all much better. The story was so cliched, dull, generic, and predictable, and dragged out endlessly with horribly slow pacing and an uneventful narrative, that the normally comfortable runtime felt endless.

At the halfway mark, I felt like I spent half a day binging a boring TV series. Then you have director Tom DeNucci manage to make the very few action scenes boring and cringeworthy, and he clearly failed to direct his cast properly, especially Tyrese Gibson, who looked and sounded bored and like he was falling asleep. To call this nonsense a B-film is an insult to B-films. Whoever funded this mess clearly needed a tax write-off. Don't get drawn in by the few well-known cast, them being in this does zero to elevate this film, and I'm sure they're regretting it, no matter how big their paycheck was. It's a generous 3/10 all going to Don Johnson and Ben-Victor, the only two actors that held their own even with the terrible writing and directing they had to work with.
