All over the place. It couldn't tell if it wanted to be an action with comedy elements, or a serious action movie, and it failed at being either. All the jokes felt flat, Kevin James the supercop didn't know how to hold a gun, his family was cringeworthy, everyone was fat and slow... Just a very bad remake of movies like John Wick, The Equalizer, Nobody, etc... Except those are all better movies. It gets some bonus points because it's watchable and I like some of cast, like Joey Diaz and Melissa Leo.

A b-movie that is going for a pastiche of many different pieces of media... Predator, Alien, Event Horizon, Cube... Even the video game Gears of War. The main problem is all the padded out gun fights that recycle the same few sets and sound effects, lasting many minutes longer than they should. But there is plenty else to complain about, like how all the aliens look like villians from the Super Mario Bros movie. There is one VERY funny scene that is almost worth the price of admission alone ("... in the city of Compton..."), but mostly it's a cheap, crappy, unoriginal borefest. Linda Hamilton is top-billed but doesn't show up until an hour-plus in, looking worn and haggard.

Worse than you'd expect.

Overly goofy and unrealistic, insulting the intelligence of people who grew up in the 90s with cheap gimmicks rather than rewarding their nostalgia it annoys by getting so much wrong and distorts continuity. It's R-rated technically, but has the watered-down tone of a PG movie, leaving it tonally confused and unsatisfying.
