Terrible Hollywood Trash

Rating: 1/10 (20 October 2016)

I saw this had a 7.5 rating on IMDb so I thought it would be worth a shot. How wrong I was!
First of all, the casting is awful. The lead by Mark Wahlberg is so off-base from the person he is based on, not to mention Kate Hudson does represent who she is supposed to, I mean it is just all off in every way. The acting could have been better, but with such a terribly generic script, who could tell.
Next the story is overly simplistic. I was hoping that the movie would have more substance than it did. There is no thematic depth and they took a complex story that lasted months and had incredible political and commercial repercussions and boiled it down to a good-guy-bad-guy movie.
Wayyyy too many special effects. Compared to the actual footage, it looks completely unreal. I also despise when movies have explosions going off constantly to make boring scenes exciting.
There is more depth in a Bond movie, better effects in Jaws, and just about any movie is better than this. Really disappointing. At least I saw it in "4D," where the chair movements, vibrations, smells, and air blowing in my face distracted me from what I was watching.
