Meh. He was trying to act unhinged. It worked. And he was there to fight, and the fighting was good.

Worked for me.

The first movie is a classic because it took a ridiculous premise on with absolute sincerity. The situation was idiotic, but it was made with skill and care. It's okay to try.

This version was far, far too self aware, and it hamstrung the movie. The CGI and dubbing of the voices took me completely out of the viewing experience. If you go back and watch the first scene with the bookshop girl,almost all of her lines were dubbed. Most of McGregor too.

Combine that with the CGI editing of all the punches, which might be the worst 'development' to hit filmmaking since CGI blood replaced squibs, and it looked like something you'd get from a first-year film student trying to ape Michael Bay.

The first movie has a tight script with little wasted action. What is the point of the female love interest? How did her accent make any sense? How does Gyllenhaal become a munitions expert? Who was Joe Burrow's dad? Why was Bucho in this at all? What was the point of the post-credits scene except to fulfill the Leprechaun's ego?

What an awful mess that was. I can't believe that's the best editing they could do. How did Doug Liman go from making The Bourne Identity to that?

If Amazon renamed it Glass Key it would still be hog shit, but 1000 times less offensive.

As part of Gyllenhaal's vanity project, it was important to show he can win by slapping.

This movie is a good time for anyone who spends more time watching the movie than huffing their own anal vapor and fancying themselves a film critic.

Gyllenhaal carries the film well, and it was a fun watch.

If you saw the trailer, then you understood what kind of film this was going to be. People getting rocked with haymakers that would literally kill a normal person, and an outrageous antagonist.

If you expected something more then you weren't paying attention.

Is that the girl whose body was found in a field owned by Ken Rex McElroy near Quitman Missouri? I was told that story by the son of the then Nodaway County Sheriff after a day of Pheasant and Quail hunting with him and my buddy.

PS: Also The Great Mortimer aka Harley Race was from Quitman Missouri and supposedly had run-ins with Ken Rex. He is rumored along with the Sherrif of Nodaway Co as one of the trigger pullers. Harley still held land around Quitman till his death in 2019. He often came back from home near St Louis, especially around hunting season. He liked the bar in the hall basement in Burlington Junction Mo. He was a hell of a good dude and Mason. I doubt he was involved. Ok done hijacking this as long as Penz quits bringing back memories.

It wouldn't have been that bad but Conor McGregor was terrible. Yeah he can do fight scenes but his character and acting was a joke.

Jake absolutely carried this movie, but Connor almost ruined it. I hate the ****ing guy with a passion and his walk makes me want to kick puppies. Even with Connor looking like he had shit in his pants this movie wasn't terrible. I enjoyed it for what it was. The CGI was pretty ridiculous and the voice dubbing was stupid, but the action was cool. JG was great and funny. I think he was perfect for the roll and pretty much anyone else would have made this flop hard.

Never saw the original either.

I liked it a lot. My favorite movie from him is Donnie Darko though. I know that's either a love it or hate it movie.

Zodiac and Jarhead were also fairly good.
