Hard to take a movie seriously when characters are named Tuah and Discord.
The Old Guard 2 is one of the most boring movies ever put on this earth. Unbelievably unbearable. What’s up with these big-budget Netflix movies being this soulless? I’m not even asking for a great story, just entertain me. But no, this is mind-numbingly dull.
Every character sleepwalks through the film. We see nothing, and suddenly - bam - we’re in the climax. Where’s the villain? What’s their motive? Where’s the narrative? Scenes just jump around randomly with no rhythm or purpose.
And the action? Lazy choreography, lazy camerawork, below-average editing. It’s like nobody cared. And now they’re making a part 3? Wow.
I'll be honest I only watched this because I thought I remembered Angelina Jolie in the first, (mixed it up with eternals) so a bit disappointed but did give me a few lets copy Highlander vibes.
Worth a watch if you like the first but you'll have to wait for the ending anyway if it gets a part 3.
