No matter how much Daniel Radcliffe didn’t try to get rid of the image of a boy who survived, he will forever remain the very guy who played Harry potter.
Meanwhile, over the past few years, the British actor managed to star in unusual and sometimes amazing films, including a fantastic image of a corpse, on which the hero from the picture “travels across the ocean”Man is a Swiss knife”
New movie with Radcliffe “Akimbo guns“Trying to connect the gaming surroundings, classic”Running manAnd popularJohn Wick”In the wrapper of films of category“ B ”.
The main character of the picture is Miles – An ordinary boring video game developer who, instead of high-budget blockbusters, creates a casual trash for mobile phones. After parting with the girl and getting bogged down in a routine, Miles spends all his free time trolling random anonymous and watching the underground reality show “Scism”Where people are killing each other in reality.
Podkolov of the wrong person, Miles himself becomes an involuntary participant in the show with two pistols tightly bolted to his hands. Now the main character has a day to kill Nyx – a ruthless champion of underground survival games, but at the same time, perhaps, to save her love.
Combining comedy and bloody trash, the authors maintain a good viewer’s attention, throwing on the screen all new comic and at the same time crisis situations. Naturally, there is an element of predictability, but Radcliffe in fur slippers and a robe with two pistols you will remember forever.
With guns nailed to his hands, Miles cannot even pull on elementary pants, and trying to escape from Knicks and the police puts him in the most stupid situations.
At the same time, the authors are not afraid to quote game classics. In one place you can see a link to Max paynein another to GTA or Super mario. And all this looks as much as possible to the place and organically. And, of course, it should please an experienced gamer.
Naturally, one can immediately see that the project is sorely lacking in budget, so there is no choreography of the “John Wick” level, but the shootings, effects and fights are at a decent level.
The hammer fight, the capture of the lair of the villains and the chase are excellent. The open end gives cause for follow-up, but given the fees, 2/3 of which were in Russia, the chances of a sequel look rather illusive.
“Akimbo guns“Along with fresh”Sonic at the cinema”- one of the most worthy films created based on video games for a fairly long period of time.
