Aftermath

A group of highly-trained military operators led by Romeo (Mason Gooding) blows up two ends of a bridge. Their target is Doc (Dichen Lachman), a prisoner on a transport. They take the other trapped motorists hostage. Among them is former Army Ranger Eric Daniels (Dylan Sprouse) and his younger sister Madeleine.

This reminds me of that Sly movie in a tunnel from the 90's. The situation is artificial. I don't buy Gooding as the big bad. He is playing Romeo like a yappy chihuahua. I do understand that he's the manic cartoon villain, but I doubt anyone sane would follow him. In fact, Dichen Lachman would be a better big bad. Dylan is fine, but he's not the problem.

I cant find much wrong with this film and in its action genre it is decent enough. I haven't seen a lot of Dylan sprouses acting as its mostly his brother cole that I see but he was good here and it would be nice to see them both star together in an action film. I would say he dosnt come off as the action type but that actual helps in making his character seem more inconspiciois. He plays Eric, a former solider who gets ptsd and while driving with his sister madalian they get in a hostage situation with others on a bridge in order to kidnap a lady named doc from a prison transport van. The entirity of most the film is set on this particular bridge so its nice to watch it progress and show eric standing up. A good action movie overall with good kickassing action.

The villain was horrible. I've seen better acting in my tiny high school drama plays. Cheesy action movie sure, but was half watchable. Mason ruined the whole thing because he was completely unbelievable with every line he said. Decent action. Decent damsel in distress. Decent hero. Great action and visuals. But the villian was absolutely atrocious. I hope I never see this actor in another film ever. Literally every other aspect of the movie was built for a fun shoot em up action movie. Movie was fun except for the scenes where mason has any dialogue. I'd rather see papa Smurf or Barney or the Duolingo animation as the villian and it would be more believable.

The rating of this movie is what happens when you have a fandom, this movie is a 2 and nothing more.

I watched because of Sprouse and my god this makes sharknado look great.

This is worse than those b movies by asylum.

There is no reason for this movie to get anything over 2 stars.

The Story: yeah no.

Acting: seems like some people were in a hurry. The young girl is an adult which made a horrendous opening scene a bit more digestible. Still who ever put that scene in needs to be looked into.

VFX: pretty damn decent for what this movie is.

Sound design: really good for the most part.

Cinematography: excellent in many cases

I want to forget that I watched this movie and never talk or think about it.

Seriously, who are the numbskulls rating this higher than 1 star. The Movie is trash from the very beginning. The dialogue is written by a 2 year old. I am so disappointed I really enjoy Dichen Lachman but she messed up here accepting a role in this dumpster movie. The idea could be good for a thriller, however the director and producer screwed this one up badly. A lot of the scenes are animation, and don't look real at all. Such a cheap and low effort at making a movie and insulting the viewers.

I am less than 5 minutes in and can't take it anymore. There should be a law to stop this low quality of material being released.
