The Misfits

Oh my, this was awful in every way. Most of the actors have zero talent and the couple that do obviously sleep walked through this. The is just a rip off of generic heist film and the dialogue is cringeworthy.

All the reviews 8 and up are FAKE single use accounts.

Avoid.

What a lot down. Great locations, decent production and wonderful cast.

However this has been some of the most idiotic directing and use of dialogs i have seen.. probably ever.

You cant give it a 1 because the cast is just too great.

Here is what i do not understand not just with this movie but others which gave bad writing or unploshed scripts. You spend 50 million or more on a movie and you cant invest in a flawless script and good writing? This movie is so close to being a great and yet such a colossal miss.

This film is an incoherent mess. There are so many scenes that has no connection with the rest of the film, such as the short scene where Jamie Chung ties up a man in the bathroom. There film tries to be an action comedy, but is successful at being neither.

A group of vigilante criminals call themselves the Misfits. Ringo (Nick Cannon) steals from bank safe deposit boxes and gives to the poor. Violet (Jamie Chung) rescues human trafficking victims. Explosive expert Wick (Mike Angelo) blows up evil. The Prince (Rami Jaber) is a con artist. The group recruits escape expert Richard Pace (Pierce Brosnan) with his daughter Hope (Hermione Corfield). They have to rob private prison owner Schultz (Tim Roth) who is holding a large gold deposit in a middle east prison for a terrorist group.

This is bad but I'm also a sucker for heist movies. It's trying to be cool by infusing itself with oil-moneyed Abu Dhabi and faux flashy directing. The net effect is a clueless fakeness to everything. It's like taking a dump in a gold plated bathroom. Sure, it may be fun to do it once but if it's actually your bathroom, it says something else about you. The only good news is the suaveness of Pierce Brosnan who almost pulls off the whole affair. On the other hand, there is no way to overcome how tired I've become with Nick Cannon. The caper is rather silly but it uses a real world group as terrorists. It's caught between silly and awkwardly real. It's bad but I'm a sucker. What can I say.

A B-movie with a big budget is the nicest way I can describe this film. Brosnan is pretty good in this, and does his best with a laughably bad script that felt like it was written by an A. I. program. The sets and locations are actually quite nice, and the cinematography isn't bad either. The rest of the movie is a mess; the plot makes no sense, the dialogue is again, how a robot thinks people converse, and Nick Cannon almost ruins every scene he's in. I predict that you will ask yourself no less than 10 times "what am I watching?" during this movie.

If you go into this expecting it to be bad, you may actually enjoy yourself!
