2047: Sights of Death (2014) Reviews

• Ouch

  barosanescu2014-10-30

  Seriously? Never in my mind I thought that such a cast would play in what I call the worst movie of the year. Acting was horrible. Story was non existent. What made Rutger, Glover and Madsen play in this catastrophe? I don't mention the other actors, since they are not really actors. Baldwins' performance was no better than his other movies. Hannah should have stopped at "Mermaid". Maybe a free trip to Italy was the motivation? Boring and tasteless. The director should quit and retire, the script writer should get a job as a ... anything else but script writing. The editor should be a janitor. A complete shame to the industry. 2047 makes any "B" movie look like an Oscar.

• Futuristic action flick where rebels, played by Glover, Baldwin and Leoni, face off against gov't bad guys Hauer and Madsen.

  guyaintwright2014-11-02

  The audience will find it tortuous trying to decipher the point of Glover and Baldwin's rebel 'mission'. The rebel opposition consists of a group of pseudo-military types led by Rutger Hauer. I'm not sure if the clownish attempt at acting like soldiers was due to the writers thinking it unnecessary to pay for technical consulting, or perhaps that really is how Italian soldiers work. Hauer appears in a state of constant obliviousness (which is reasonable, given the script). Thin plots don't really bother me as long as there is a little bit of good acting, a character to root for, or at least entertaining action scenes. This movie, having none of those things, is utterly unappealing and thoroughly boring. The script was completely incomprehensible. The actors never had a chance with this big steamy turd.

• Beyond Tedious

  bari-goddard-148-8979192014-11-02

  Mind-numbingly boring film,the 'name actors' must have been paid a shed full of money to appear in this tedious drivel, there can be no other reason to perform in this 1/10 nonsense. There is not one redeeming feature, the plot is overused and has large gaps in continuity, camera-work is amateur and at best bland, everyone looks and acts bored. Script is beyond a joke - what a waste of so much talent on a vehicle that is this boring. Rutger Hauer etc should sack their agents for getting them involved in this, it was so embarrassing to watch I actually felt myself squirming as each ridiculous line was delivered and each plot gap widened by cutting to a scene which didn't follow on from the storyline, such as it were. Do not waste time or money watching this, you will regret it.

• An abomination against all that is art

  dmstokes732014-11-04

  This is a terrible movie and everyone involved, from actors to directors should be ashamed of themselves. This movie involved people who were in Reservoir Dogs, Lethal Weapon, Kill Bill but this movie is nothing like any of these. This movie is less interesting than the credits of these movies. This movie is terrible, the acting is trash, the plot is incoherent, the props were done by the high school art class and the director was obviously drunk most of the time. There are some good actors in this movie, or rather actors who have done good work in their careers. This is not that good work. I don't know how they became involved in this, guess everyone has to pay the bills. Seriously, don't go here. It is as entertaining as a drunk in an alleyway and smells worse.

• Boring life?

  yehoshua-wittmer2014-11-01

  If your real life is boring like hell, and you watch this film, your life suddenly looks much brighter. I agree with the first writer that the actors were in need for pesos, or lira, as this film is Italian. It is actually in the tradition of the cheap Spaghetti western of the 70s, with a script not worth then name, likely made by a director using a fake name. Neva Leoni is the only one not selling herself below worth, as she is new, but the others should be ashamed. Rutger Hauer and Daryll Hannah (both from Blade Runner fame) are so far away from any decent acting, and that's how they want to be remembered, with crap like this film? Broke or desperate, or both.
