hahahaha! Just became my most anticipated flick!

 

[Kane52630]

Yeah I'm glad seeing Arnold doing fun films again.

 

[DaddlerTheDalek]

This looks like fun! Go Arnie!

 

[Consona]

Ghehe, wtf is this? How much of a budget went to Arnie? 70%?

 

[Black Narcissus]

That was a fun trailer. I'm down.

 

[Incarnadine]

This looks like fun, almost like True Lies era Arnie.

As a bonus that clip had a link to the Super Troopers 2 redband teaser. Another fun looking movie.t:

Never heard of it, but I'm sold.

 

[Neno_Kos]

This is comedy, right?

 

[godisawesome]

Ah, the aged badass in his natural environment; going about his seemingly mundane life until some dumb mutha******* decide to try ice-skating uphill.

 

[samsnee]

Not sure why but the vibe reminds me of What We Do in the Shadows

 

[titansupes]

Nice.

 

[GREEN =w= DAY]

WTF?! Hahahahaha!

Looks so awesomely ridiculous. Looking forward to it

 

[Defacto]

Looks really cheap and the whole "Mocumentary" thing is just awkward and totally unrealistic. Also the characters feel like we are suppose to somehow be familiar with the archetypes. Only it might work better if they weren't played by mostly never heards. I mean if this was big budget movie, that Donnie the explosive expert would be played by Zach Galifianakis or Jack Black. Instead we get the cheap versions and it shows.

 

[CaptainWagner]

This looks great!

 

[TheCardPlayer]

This looks absolutely hilarious. Day one for me!

My review

Spoiler

It's a extremely low budget mockumentary about a group of hitmen trying to kill the top hitman (aka Arnold). The movie is obviously playing it up for laughs and while I don't think the movie works 100%, it was funny at times. It may look like Arnold Schwarzenegger is headlining the movie, but it's really the director (Taran Killam) who's the main star. The group he's with was alright and everyone has their so called gimmick as a hitman. Schwarzenegger doesn't really show up until the last act which is kinda disappointing. This movie needed a much bigger budget because the effects and set pieces on here was straight up laughable. It also needed a better script, but overall, it's only for Schwarzenegger die hards like myself.

6/10 (and I'm being generous)

Most people will probably be disappointed by how little screen time Schwarzenegger actually has, but overall I had a good time with this. I laughed quite a bit and it was thoroughly entertaining. Taran Killam and the rest of the hitman have some good back and forth, but I agree with Kane that more money should have been spent on the effects and the set pieces, because there's some really bad CGI in this.

I'd still give it a 7/10 though.
