This is one of those movies where I personally really, really did not enjoy it, but it had just enough (barely) good in it that I would feel bad to rate it so low when it's overall rated so highly, and then not attempt to explain.
The overall story idea and the first person aspect were unique and well done. But that's it.
This is pretty much loud, non-stop action that doesn't have a clear reason behind it happening; until the very end, and I do mean the very end.
The start and the finish were interesting. The rest of it was just gross, and then gross, and then more gross. There wasn't much of a story unfolding throughout the majority of the movie. It was just a long, gross wait to find out what it was all about. There was no actual substance during that wait. I'm betting less than halfway through I was just desperate for it to come to a close already. It was an exhausting, annoying film. I may have actually rolled my eyes through some of it.
If you're one of those in a large majority of men out there who rarely ever need anything more than excessive, brutal, bloody, gory violence, and cookie cutter nude women with no discernible personalities that seem to only exist to fawn over men, in order to be satisfied; this is for you. It's a big yawn for me; lazy, unoriginal, and did I mention that it's just a whole lot of gross? It was a lot to watch at that level for over 90 minutes, and the interesting start and finish did not make this worth my time to endure.
This maybe could have been cool to me had it been given more; more thought, more substance, more than mindless viewing. But, it was unfortunately just turned into a pile of boring shit. Okay, yeah. I really hated this. It was a steaming pile of stinky, smelly shit. There was only the need to bother watching the beginning and the ending in order to follow along. Boys who dig this; if you have a girl and you wanna share this with her, maybe make sure you know her well enough to know if she'd actually manage to enjoy it too. We don't have to enjoy all the same things and I imagine there have to be other women who understand where I'm coming from in how I came away from this movie feeling. And they used a Queen song in this shit! That was one of the most offensive parts!
Also! I often read both the higher and lower rated reviews for movies; especially for ones I dislike. The 1 star ratings on IMDb for this are gold. I've never given so many helpful review yesses. I want to give them all double high fives. One basically said that if non-stop ultra-violence constitutes a plot for you then you'll give it a 10. It's exactly that, with annoying tits thrown in. Another said they prefer a movie with a plot. Fucking YES. Also, also; I had forgotten that the bad blondie bloke had superpowers without any explanation.
