Anybody here see Hardcore Henry? Post your thoughts on it.
I thought it was great except for the story
Well it wasn't ever really advertised as anything more than a REALLY action-y movie.
And holy shit it was action-y. I loved it - nothing gets your blood pumping like getting to see all that killing from the character's eyes. And the humor was pretty great.
"EZ"

How nonstop is it? I feel like if the movie is just nonstop action you become desensitized to it
good as this?
>>68075838
I think there are maybe two parts in the movie where the action stops for more than 5 minutes. And no you don't get desensitized by it by the end, it keeps getting more and more over the top culminating withhenry pulling his eye out and wrapping it around the bad guys neck and decapitating him with it.
>>68075962
up??
>That ending
REEEEEEEE
>>68076496
great ending desu
>>68075962
Take that in First Person and add in a telekinetic bad guy and you're mostly there
>>68076596
that's what made the movie good though, it wasn't just endless action -- which would have been entirely boring on its own -- the sci-fi elements are fantastically integrated and cleverly used (like based jimmy)
Sharlto Copley is GOAT tier actor
Fight me
>>68076658
Never said that was a bad thing.
Seeing it again Thursday and Friday with two separate groups of friends.

>>68078274is henry redpilled?
>>68078344The sequel involves a group of mercenaries stealing Henry's daki, so Henry chases after them to rescue his waifu.
Did anyone else picture henry not as themselves, but as an action-oriented actor of their choiceprime arnold schwarzenegger here
Who else /____EZ____/ here?
>>68076496
I walked out and went to watch true cinema with BvS. What happens in the end?
>>68078670
Most of that helicopter scene had me laughing.

you're right though
If you don't get motion sickness easily then this movie rocks. It's nothing but action, though. Not that it stops being fun to watch - every action scene tops the last, to the point where the last scenehas him stone-stepping the bodies of the people he killed to reach the flying baddie (long story).
Really watch this for the black humor/fucking sick fight scenes. The story was shit because it doesn't play pretend about its intent and audience, the only really bad thing is the camera shake for some people.
Loved every single second of it, never felt any motion sickness, the story was fine for a non-stop action movie, it still carried you along with finding out Henry's past right alongside him, Colonel Jimmy is best, and I actually liked Akan a lot. Think about Akan and how incredibly easy it is to make him stupid and corny as hell, but they pulled it off, imo.
LISTEN TO YOUR HEART
Anyone else feel like Akan is what Snyder was going for with Eisenberg Luthor, but failed miserably?

dude that's fucking gay
>>68078991Sheeeiiiit
So why was Henry important at all? Like, why did Akan go through all that trouble for him? Also towards the end was a nice twist.
Sounds like you're a faggot JEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEWJEW
>>68079178
he was just the first successful cyborg-soldier that Akan wanted. He kept him alive so they can keep harvesting combat experience from him to siphon to other cyborg-soldiers.
>>68079178Henry was the first. Akan probably wanted to test his abilities and improve what he could, and then just have Henry offed by the army he created by the end.
goat movie
>>68079178
Henry wasn't the first cyborg-soldier. However, all the ones made so far were aimless because of their lack of emotion, memories, empathy - things which make up motivation. So he put all of those things (except memory) into Henry which allowed for actual reason to fight. He took all the footage of him fighting into the cyber-soldiers brains so they can fight like he does.
Then Henry killed the Big Baddies real EZ anyway.
Reviewers are shitting on it so I'm not seeing it.
>>68074914
It was pretty fucking great the action scenes just get getting better and wilder and it was pretty interesting how the first person perspective really made Henry more sympathetic it made it feel so much better when he gets his revenge and shit
>>68079398
>>68079239
>>68079236
I mean, sure ok. Well I guess we don't have to know everything.
>>68079649
No one is talking about the movie. We're dying to say anything here.
>>68079761
So was Henry revived by all the other creators android avatars each time?
>>68079917
Nah. Henry actually did wake up w/o memories to a fake wife. The other 'borgs are just recieved the same memory with her saying a different name.
One of the plot holes is "why don't they question where they are/why there are dozens of other mind monkeys around them?" Maybe they aren't given higher thought/free thinking like Henry has.
Just got back from it. Good lord was that fun. I found myself with a big stupid grin halfway through the movie, even caught myself jumping back whenever Henry got hit.
Also
>That fucking adrenaline scene
I got so fucking pumped
>>68074914
way too much motion blur. they should have done like the hobbit a few years ago and shot in a higher frame rate, i think that really would have helped. resolution looked bad at times too, as if they were actually filming it with a go pro
kind of funny that the movie is basically a video game and the main problems are frame rate and resolution
>>68075838
its kind of non stop but they pace it out so that its not just the same shit
like early on there's a parkour sequence, then a little later they're jumping around in vehicles and stuff. the final fight sequence is pretty great, it starts off bland ish and builds up in brutality the more it goes on. i wasn't really ever bored of the violence, but the shaky cam did get on my nerves a lot
Convinced my friends to watch this instead of BvS tonight.
They came out feeling like it was the worst movie they'd ever seen in a theater and the rest of the night was awkward...
I thought it was pretty good though and had fun watching it...
>>68081137
Get better friends
>>68081137
anon, you did them a huge favor.
not that i thought BvS was unwatchable, i enjoyed it despite its flaws, but if they couldn't enjoy hardcore henry then they're probably the type of people who will have BvS and nitpick every plot detail to death instead of just trying to enjoy it for what it was
>>68081137
You're telling me your friends didn't think that it was funny or brutal at all, even a little bit?
GET
BETTER
FRIENDS
Only way to make it better would be to increase the FPS to 60

>>68079107
I only choke people who are very intimately close to me with my eyeball wire. It's saved only for those who I truly love.
>>68076020
if i remember correctly, he didn't decapitate the guy that way, but actually wrapped it around his head and cut it in half
>>68081323Pussy
>>68081538
Half machine, half pussy.
I do gotta say, I feel they pulled off the two camera (one for each eye) trick really well.
>>68081933
It was the narliest part of the movie for me. Ripping out dudes' balls and shanking a dozen people was all good, but seeing your eyeball hanging out made me squick a little.
I feel sorry for people who get physically sick watching some movies. That must suck.
I enjoyed this movie though, but I agree it needed a higher framerate. It surprised me with how violent and gory it was though and it just kept escalating the entire movie. Not complaining I just thought that was interesting.
I love Sharlto Copley.

Kek
So if they were just testing his abilities, was Jimmy not in on it or something?And Akan sacrified most of his soldiers just to test Henry. Brutal motherfucker.
It felt like a big budget student film
Also the hunor was fucking atrocious, I wanted Jimmy to die and shut the fuck up so fucking much
Also the villain was shit
And so was the pacing and editing
>>68083591
Jimmy was anex-employee who was crippled by Akan (IS A MASSIVE CUNT!) and vowed vengeance.I don't think he was in on it.
I dunno why, though. Dude gets copies of himself. He can throw away his life and still have another, andspine cripplagewas all he needed to be motivated to do it.
>>68083638
ouchies
Garbage movie set to pander to Let's Play audiences. Theater was packed with 13 year old future dudebros.
Besides that it was just okay. It felt more like a straight-to-netflix feature rather than a fullblown movie, like that one where the guy goes on a rampage shooting spree then ditches the armor he wore and that's it.
>>68083795
>theatre was packed
I don't believe you.
>>68083813
It's a smaller theater than you'd be use to. We can't afford any of your fancy crab leg butter-halls, falcon towers, or dungeons.
>>68074914
just strikes me as another action movie. I get that it's different but it's the same as others, and with a terrible plot.
>>68083876
>>68083795
>>68083638
Literal hipster posts.
>>68078897
Now that you mention it, yes.
>>68080296
How can you not get pumped to this song?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgzGwKwLmgM
I had been waiting the whole movie for that. I was afraid it was just something for the trailer.
>>68084084
I kinda like Biting Elbow's new song.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ph5YmTDDdVI
It's not like the songs I've heard from them.
It looks like it would be really fun to watch while stoned. I don't think I want to pay $12 to see it in the theater though.
>>68084640
It is pretty fun to see stoned.When the first Jimmy avatar gets shot in the back of the head it kinda ruined my high a bit though
>mfw people's reactions when they unconsciously watched a Russian kino
good, good
WHY IS THIS BOARD SO FUCKING EMBARRASSING, LMAO
YOU FUCKING MOUTHBREATHERS
>>68078897
No, Akan was a bunch of slavs going for Nolan's Joker and failing miserably
>>68075962
I do t think anything is as good as that for dumb fun action.
Was Akan a telekinetic Dutch albino?
>>68074914
It was solid. A single and a couple left early. I'm guessing it was motion sickness.
>>68085267
>motion sickness from a film
lmoa
>>68085267
maybe it was so action packed the single and the couple went into the toilets to fuck
Every scene without jimmy wasn't great. Every scene WITH jimmy was brilliant.
>>68085493
The musical number was great.

Do you get paid per post, or per thread?
>>68078854
>It doesn't pretend to be a good movie
I'm intrigued
>>68085267
Probably thought it was shit
>>68083663
Speaking of which, I wonder if Jimmy felt it every time a Jimmy died. He seemed to be able to feel high when a Jimmy used drugs, unless he was just acting.
>>68081016
They did film it with a gopro
>>68074914
I got what I wanted from it, action and some comedy. I was a bit hesitant after the strong intro credits, when it was just bad CGI and escaping bad guys. Then when Jimmy turned up the movie improved a lot.
>>68085267
She got da booty
It was like a good movie, except for the good
Just leave it here.

>>68083795
Rampage was awesome, fuck you!
I got drunk and saw it, I really enjoyed it but it also really annoyed me
Copley was the best part honestly
The part where his character starts coming out in all those outfits was the best fucking thing
oh and the horse gag, that was classy
It was like watching a letsplay of a game that has a high res, but oddly cheap looking textures. Letsplays are fine for ten minutes or so - this just sort of kept going.
