Disappointing ... a torture porn action video-game movie

Rating: 5/10 (24 March 2011)

First of all, let me say that this movie makes no sense. The movie plot is as explained in the trailer and very little more except that it adds a PG13 "I Spit On Your Grave" style torture and characters. As from the trailer, it's a quest for the four items; the fifth item being a mystery - each quest prompting a grand video-gamesque action sequences.
The movie starts off fine, though without explaining much, and devolves so quickly into meaningless flashy sequences devoid of any tension or meaning that you catch yourself feeling jaded of hot chicks in skimpy clothes with machine guns fighting zombie Nazis. To compensate, the movie veers into cruelty, misery and sadistic sequences; a move that offers no payback or for that matter entertainment.
The anachronistic mad-house or battlefield with music from the all the decades oozes style but the poor story really brings down the quality of the movie and is a huge disappointment and more than that, it's not even good entertainment.
