Definitely had some wtf moments, like with her scaling the underside of the plane like spider-man, but action movie heroes have been pulling that nonsense for years, so whatever.
That said, even Arnold had to blow up the predator. He didn't run up and pummel it to death with his bare hands.
falling out of a plane and then being blown back into the plane because of a plane exploding below her was beyond WTF, it was cartoon time.
sharei thought the movie was ok and quite good at times . obviously there was a lot of nonsense but then so have the Superman Spiderman Fast and Furious James Bond etc.. movies , the gremlins were super cool and original I felt they fitted in quite well with the overall style and atmosphere, just some fun light entertainment
shareI can accept some of the over the top action, but the explosion blowing her back up through the hole crossed a line. Also, the men being utterly useless didn't play well. At least a couple of them should have acted like, well you know, men. But, I still kind of liked it for it's gonzo bonkers premise, and Chloe Grace Moretz, with her unusually masculine physical capabilities blended with feminine qualities, was perfect for the role. Clearly though, this flick portrayed a very idealized feminist statement, with the woman doing quite literally everything. It was so in your face that it was a bit off-putting, even for my wife. All in all, I enjoyed it, though.
shareWhen she started scaling the underside, I was like "wait what?". Tom Cruise would be jealous AF.
And she was this badass super hero chick that pummeled a large cryptoid type creature with her bare hands, but couldn't stand up to her husband? But as weird as this movie was, I'll admit I was sort of mesmerized.
shareAgreed. However, I liked that last scene, the "oh sh*t" look on the gremlin's face and then it tries to flee from her. And after seeing all the crap she pulled off in the movie, I don't blame it, poor monster.
