Did I watch a different film?

Rating: 4/10 (18 March 2015)

First things first, I've read through quite a lot of the reviews for this and it's left me totally speechless.On one hand you've have loads lauding the film and the other half incensed by it for its violence. Both are wrong.
Let me make it clear that I love both actions films and comedy films. This film can't decide which one it really wants to be. It's like a cheap Kill Bill mixed with Ali G InDaHouse.Have I seen over the top violence before? Yes. Have I heard the same jokes before? Yes. This film brought absolutely nothing new to the table.
The volume of action was great but it was executed very poorly. It was a CGI fest throughout and it was unconvincing at best. The acting was subpar. SLJ was an embarrassment. It was the type of performance you would see in a not so serious commercial. Taron played the typical chav role pretty well. He looked the part at least.
The whole thing was just too cheesy for me and very predictable. There were too many scenes where I actually found myself cringing. I recently watched John Wick and in comparison is light years beyond this film in regards to action. This film is for school kids that enjoy sniggering to a sexual reference, rubbish acting and all out action.
I wouldn't recommend this film to anyone because I'd be robbing them of their time. How this film is rated so high is totally beyond me. Worst film I've watched this year hands down.
