Hands down the worst in the series.
All it is is just shooting.
shareI thought that when i watched it last night
The first drill bit cracked into the cave and i thiought this is it , it'll be all shooting now
I checked the progress bar - film 50% through
Great i though all thats left is 45 minutes of constant machinegun fire and cgi bullets and squids and shellcasings.
Luckily though it was only from 50% to 75% , then some other stuff started happening
so, yeah 25% of the film is that guy in his exoskeleton firing the massive machine guns and yelling "aaaarrrrggghhhh"
As weak as the third film is, I did like how hopelessly relentless the machine squids were. I also liked that the violence wasn't muted or toned down. It felt very visceral and, dare I say, epic.
A shame the movie seemed like it didn't really know where it wanted to go for the first bit, and then meandered into a lot of violence in the middle, and then kind of petered out with an overly long fist fight at the end.
I saw this in theatre with a bunch of friends, and when we left the theatre I recall one of my friends saying, "all right, we're all going to agree that this was shit, right?"
