Review of Black Ops

Black Ops (II) (2019)
2/10
5.8!?!?!!
13 July 2020
Warning: Spoilers
I'm a huge horror fan, if you are as well...you're aware that anything with a 5.0+ is going to typically be very worth watching as people rate them low.

This however...? How this is above a 1.5 is blowing my mind.

Absolutely horrible acting, horrible CGI, horrible pacing, and just plain DUMB.

I give it 2 stars because like most of you likely thought...when I heard the plot I went "that sounds really neat!!" As I'm always interested to see how film makers can take a simple, mundane idea and make it fun. Isolation films are my favorite...so being trapped on never ending stairs..? What could go wrong!? Well all of it...

First of all...the number 1 thing I'd do as a film maker is, hide your weaknesses. How would you do that here? Well your budget was clearly that of an unsuccessful yard sale. Why would you have big explosions, and why have them be a military unit!? They could've done it with a group of friends...a group of bank robbers ...you get the idea. They could've hidden the fact that it's straight out of a Friday night SyFy channel film.

The kills were ...not great.the monster or ghost or whatever it is was bad.

Just pass..
