Project Legion

Every once in a while, a movie comes along that is so bad, it literally is painful to watch. Project Legion is THAT kind of movie.

I actually forced myself to get through this pile of garbage (albeit in two separate sittings) just so I can see how bad it could get. And it spiraled downward into toilet level movie making. Project Legion is beyond terrible in every way imaginable. The acting is horrible. The editing is even worse. The story line makes absolutely no sense.

Honestly, this movie deserves ZERO stars. But since that's not an option, I begrudgingly gave it one. Anyone associated with this movie needs to have their head examined. Maybe I should too since I sat through the whole thing.

I have to admit, I didn't watch this. I gave it the old college try, but after 15 min, depression set in, followed by regret, then the strong desire to drink coupled with thoughts of suicide.

That's how bad this movie was. I've seen movies with smaller budgets do better. Believe me, money wasn't the issue. You need a decent lead actor (box unchecked), A story that makes some sort of sense (box unchecked), a real producer, you know, one of them fancy college people (box unchecked), and maybe a plan. (box also unchecked) This movie didn't appear to have any of those. So many scenes in such a short period of time didn't make sense, it almost felt purposefully done. A weird disjointed "sex" scene. Crazy Bollywood ghost lady in the hallway, stereotypical black spec ops dude talking about getting laid as soon as he gets home. Whew, it got tiring real fast to the point where I simply had to turn it off. It seems Hollywood is churning out so much this garbage, I'm almost ready to do an Elvis Presley and put a bullet in the TV and take up knitting or quilt making.

A hardened soldier wakes up to some catastrophe. As someone bangs on his door he acts more like a confused yuppy who figures hollering through the door will scare the door knocker away. Many errors in the movie make this a bonafide garbage fire. Lights flickering on and off yet TV stays on. Laptop shows white noise as a tv would. Plays a multiple voicemails on his phone. While listening to them he literally screams into the phone HELLO multiple times. The director needs to rethink his career choices if this is the garbage he is going to put out. The only thing scary about this movie is I wasted time watching it.

Of course you know it's not going to be a classic when your lead actor is a retired MMA fighter. Donald Cerrone is a bad actor and has no on screen charisma whatsoever. Watching his "I am Legend" routine is like watching a crackhead suffering from paranoid delusional schizophrenia episodses hide out in a cockroach infested motel room for an hour. Everything about this movie is crumby. It's a lame story with lame action and lame suspense and a lame plot. You could probably make a better movie with a bunch of your friends having a party in any roadside flea ridden desert motel room and using your own cell phone as a movie camera. This trash film is seriously that poorly made. 2 Stars for the Hilarious effort and a couple of chuckles, watching this dumpster fire of a video unfold into the abyss of Nothingness.

This review hurts to write being that I'm a HUGE fan of Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone as a fighter. I've personally met him and he is an awesome down to earth guy.

Unfortunately his acting in this film as hard to watch. Although I'm sure it doesn't help that the storyline, script and production are all absolute trash.

Immediately you can tell the production quality is low... which would be fine if the story made any sense at all. Everything in this film seems forced and cringey.

As I said this it hurts me to write such a terrible review when it comes to the infamous Cowboys Cerrone.... But not nearly as much as it hurt to watch that movie.

If you are able to make it all the way through this film. God bless you... and may god have mercy on your soul.
