Hostage Radio (II) (2019)
1/10
Home alone + metoo
22 March 2022
Warning: Spoilers
The premise is interesting and that's where the positives end.

The characters are uninteresting, the acting is mediocre, the ending is unsatisfying, but the worst offender by far is the script.

The intruders are written like Home Alone goons, that's the level of Scooby Doo villain nonsense we're dealing with here.

They lack any solid plan or devotion to see things through after awaiting this moment for 8 years. They get played like children, doubt their own co conspirators over this radiohost and they just fumble around without keeping any control of the situation. They can't fight, shoot, make logical decisions and end up infighting and accidentally shooting each other, getting outplayed and outwitted on every opportunity like some children.

And if you think a father staring at their daughters killer, awaiting this moment for 8 years of suffering, would call the police expecting them to convict this guy instead of shooting him because he's going to literally get away with it, you shouldn't be writing movies, period.

And I'm not going to dive into the numerous plot black holes and plot conveniences.

Worst movie I've seen in at least a year.
