O Coletivo

Investigating and bringing to justice human traffickers is a good idea for a plot. I am sure it would make a real good movie someday. Add to that a kind of "MI double-trouble rip off" hostage person has intel about out agents and we need to get him before others get him. OK, that could work too.

But.... it doesn't work in this mess of a movie. Its a yawn. That new gay MacGyver kid could have shined here, he does have a casual manner that could work. But...his "stealth" intro segment is so bad, he is stalking but crunching leaves and ground cover under every step as he approaches his target area. The baddies are 25 yards away, I guess that's the tragic-I mean magic of movies. He's a loud ninja against deaf henchmen. The combat knife bad-girl was the worst actress I've ever seen. There are a lot of tactical errors, hit squads approach in vans right up to the target house... with headlights on? This base of operations house has no surveillance? Of any kind? It's that important. Oh, boy.

Tonight, in truth, watched it to see just how bad it was, so I could write a review here. The thing that boggles the mind is the lineup of cast actors. Poorly used name talent here. Top grade actors are being put into these looser productions - there is a lot of them as of late! Don't understand the studio/production financing mindset that green lit these, Do they really think they will make any money in return??

The Collective...stupidity~? No, flat out stupidity.

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.

I watched with a friend who worked on the crew and he paid. That's the best thing I can say about it. Lucas Till is about as intimidating as a ballet dancer. He's supposed to be some hot-shot killer - NOT! The story is poorly constructed and poorly written. The actors spit out words that are flat and uninspiring. The direction (this guy gets hired by people who must be clueless) is flat and poorly staged, even after doing their best to mimic MATRIX-like shooting scenes. Ruby Rose was not into it. Don Johnson must be in dire straights to work on these low budget films. The rest of the cast was equally bad - retreads from this Dinucci guy's other bad movies.

I managed barely 10 min in... performance of the actors is horrible The producer and the cast .. must have been on some psychedelic drug...

That someone even had the nerve to release this is amazing !

With this eras possibilities I thought is was almost impossible to mess up this bad.

Bad acting, bad script, bad filming bad everything

Being a b-actor does not mean you have to choose going into this lower lever of trash but I guess everything has an ending.

This movie makes everything Don J ever done before look amazing and something to look at once again... If I just had the time to do it.

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.
