This has been a brilliant franchise don't get me wrong. New standards set for prolonged fight scenes. Moody foreboding atmosphere. Minimal but punchy dialogue. And just a great story... until now.
In this though, Everything is just a bit too much, a bit over the top and a bit long. Fight scenes go on forever and make you feel like you're in a video game. Dialogue reduced to an absolute minimum. And characters with hardly any depth. Even Reeves' stilted delivery seems a bit pained. If he's had enough then so have we.
Out of the 100 plus bad guys he kills in this film surely one of them could shoot straight? But no.
This film seems to be a parody of itself. Everything great about the previous ones are overplayed and overdone.
It's just not that interesting this time.
