Rampage: Capital Punishment (2014)

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.

Despite the fact that the directing is definitely awkward, I also definitely like this movie, and the previous one. Bloodbathing and somewhere gratuitous violence show, I totally agree, this remains a very realistic and bold speak against the world of today, a world of hypocrisy and lies, of bribery and people brainwashing, of population slow assasinatioin thru food, starvation and medication, a world of destruction. We of course have different ways of reading this film, at the first or the second degree. Anyway that's an action feature that makes you think, as far as you have a brain to think a little. But if you are a simple sheep in the herd, you will enjoy the bullets holes and corpses, slow motion bomb explosions and gunfights...A must see, but not for all audiences, and not only because of the violence.

I know Uwe Boll gets a lot of hate for his movies and to be honest I quite enjoy his movies, House of the Dead was fun zombie mayhem and Assault on Wall Street was a fairly tense thriller.I liked the first Rampage and was fairly curious when a sequel was announced, the trailers looked decent and the reviews I heard were actually not badSo how does "Rampage: Capital Punishment" hold up? Well I must admit I thought it was a decent film, Brendan Fletcher is great once again and the film manages to convey effect tension and fear again. Though this is not a film for everyone, there is a pretty big political message running through out the film and it seems that our lead character believes that killing people is the ultimate solution to all our problems.Though looking through all that I found the film to be well acted (apart from Uwe Boll's hilarious cameo), well shot and effectively pacedRampage: Capital Punishment is a fair thriller, worth a rent

It takes a lot of guts to participate in a movie like this with such a nihilistic and inhuman message. This is not a gore fest, this is not a splatter nor a horror movie, this is a call to disaster. The message is "If we can't change, we should be terminated". It has similarities to "FIGHT CLUB", but it is way more serious and one- dimensional: Uwe is not as gifted as Fincher. This is a manifesto more than a movie. The director wants us to think about capitalism, materialism, consumerism and generally, the emptiness of our modern lives, our modern times."FIGHT CLUB" for me is the best movie i have ever seen but it captures the 90's and 00's: This is 2014 and this is the movie that reflects our times better. I hope Uwe Boll is wrong, i hope there is still hope in this world and i hope the decay of the western civilization is reversible.PS Brendan Fletcher's performance is a tour de force
