This is the most disappointing film I've ever seen


This is not to say it was the worst movie I have ever seen, but given how much I loved the game I would say this film was the biggest screw up in the history of cinema. The screenwriter must be a complete egotisical prick - obviously he just felt a need to put his own spin on an already movie-perfect storyline. Mate, if it ain't broke then don't fix it. What the hell was with the Valkeries? What retard thought that was a good idea. Unbelievable!

Terrible movie. Terrible director. And made worse given the potential for a film that was contained in the game.

If there's ever a reboot they should just follow Act 1 of the orginal game script and end it with Jack Lupino's killing at the Ragnarok club. Seriously, If they'd done that then they probably would have made enough money to make a few sequels too.

Now this. THIS is a thread I can get behind. This is a thread I can agree with. You actually posted with good points (Though I could probably argue with one of them, but it doesn't matter right now), and I can actually see what you're trying to get through.

Especially this. I MOSTLY agree with this point. Personally I was also greatly disappointed in the movie. One thing I really hated was Max didn't even go after/kill Horne.

GetITpapi is a dumbass.
