swillia5 I wasted an hour watching this, hoping to see some fun action, some random senseless violence, etc. What I got was a slow, unfocused planning phase, and a "domestic terrorist" whose message is exactly what Hollywood and the mainstream media would tell you themselves. Pushing gun control and socialized healthcare, woo hoo. A terrorist carrying Nancy Pelosi's message.Useless.
ameypuranik1 I gave the movie 10 stars not because i feel it's the best, but just to get up the overall average rating of the movie.So that everyone should see the movie. I myself only saw it after my friend recommended it to me. I honestly believe that the movie is underrated and everyone should watch it once at least. Opinion about the message that movie gave is a different issue. Everybody is entitled to have there opinion on what director wants to say with the move or is it really good or bad. I myself think of the movie is worth watching. I haven't seen the first movie, but I think I will watch it soon . This was my first movie of uwe boll and me myself and other people are really surprised,because other movies of uwe boll are not that good i guess.
Andrey Sokolov I would describe this movie as 'Man Bites Dog' (1992) on speed, just not that professionally executed.After watching both Rampage movies, I had only one question - was there an idea or even a basic plot in this movie or was it just another wild breed of a slasher ('slashooter') genre? IMO, a bit of both, however the idea of this movie does not match with such of the main character.What Uwe has shown is that how a modern society can create such a 'hero' that is uneducated, with no aspirations in his life, uninterested in anything that surrounds him and so antisocial, that he would be prepared to murder more than 100 more or less random people thinking that this would change society that created him. Basically because these people does not meet his 'high standards'.Hiring Brendan Fletcher as the main actor was a very good choice. The way Brendan portrayed the image of a deeply troubled psychopath was surprisingly well done. He smiled where he shouldn't and his facial expressions actually looked very disturbing. Any sympathy you may experience to man's ideas are quickly wiped out when he starts murdering hostages by torturing and abusing them first. This best is shown when he is confronted by a woman who's sister he murdered in the first part because she was 'a really crappy waitress'.The whole movie was shot quite well with a few holes in a story line, but trust me you probably will not even notice them.
Cikgu Tan 1. This movie should never have been shown in cinemas. It makes a lot of people sick. 2. Brendan Fletcher deserves an Oscar nomination. He's that good. He alone drives the movie forward. The rest of the cast rarely excites or titillates the senses. 3. Uwe Boll is not Quentin Tarantino. This will be a future cult classic but not for the directing. 4. As for the movie itself - it's cruel (extremely so) yet captivating but at the same time sickening. Can't help wandering how a movie like this ever gets to be aired considering the amount of gun violent, terror and shooting spree that exists in your country? 5. I'm still shaking my head every time I think of this movie yet it somehow fascinates, weakens and disturbs me. If ever there's a movie that is bad for sanity, this is it. One last thing, the soundtrack sucks big time - it's like listening to some 8-bit game console type music.
