 Tastes kind of like a generic action shooter and a lot of hair product Hey guys, this is my review for 12 Strong. I know I'm very late for this review but just felt like seeing a movie on Tuesday for cheap prices, so I went and saw 12 Strong and The film it has an interesting concept it talks about the first engagement the first insertion of American soldiers into Afghanistan after the attack of 9-11 and That is a cool idea. It also talks about how these guys moved around horses how they worked with a local militia That was also interesting But I couldn't take the movie seriously for two reasons one of them is Everyone looked fucking fantastic with their hair. There's two guys in this And their squad they've supposedly been here for 21 days And one of them has so much goddamn moose in his hair. It's ridiculous It is absurd like he's the guy on the radio and he's just like you think he's doing this He's like we need an airdrop guys Chris Hemsworth to swear never not any moose in his hair Yeah, I only bring it up because of how obvious it was a movie that I kept on bringing up and comparing to in terms of Current-day military shooter sort of film was blackock down Not anyone really has hair in that some of the special forces guys do have hair But it's short cropped hair no one has like except maybe Eric Banna But otherwise everyone looks normal or doesn't have any hair product this movie It's so obvious that people have hair product in it. Just yeah, and the second is how Generic it is. There are so many cliches from other military shooters in this movie Soldier who makes a friend with the local boy who is in the conflict generals have Disagreements and at the last second they come together and they even have a bro moment guys getting blown up But then having these shell shock moments shell shock moments are just a given ever since saving Private Ryan the movie isn't bad It's just not good either. I would say that's just my thing. It's a very generic sort of film The performances in this film are Chris Hemsworth is always Honestly when he's not playing Thor Michael Shannon's in this and Michael Shannon isn't creepy at all It's actually kind of unsettling that he's not creepy He doesn't do much Slips a disc Michael Pena is a great actor and he's kind of there just for jokes There are some decent action scenes, but they are so Repetitive in terms of how they are executed the end scene is pretty interesting There's this big cavalry charge, but I almost couldn't take it seriously because I don't know how any of these guys are getting popped out However, I do not know the full extent of the actual battle. It's kind of the same situation when I went and saw lone survivor I really enjoyed loads survivor, and I wondered if half of that was true To an extent most of it was the jumping down the mountain was definitely true them getting a shot as much as they did not entirely true, but Sort of similar to the situation I'd have to do the same thing for 12 strong here, but just the ending was just so Hollywood it just made me kind of it took me out of it in terms of like I said a realistic movie about a combat event It's not a bad movie. People will probably enjoy it. The action itself is not too bad It's not PG, but it's not are either. It's kind of this weird in between I don't even know how to describe it because there's blood But if most of it's fake blood, but then there's a guy who blows himself up And there's all the gore on a tire at one point and this is a what? What so yeah, it's not an R rated movie, but it's not a PG 13 movie either. It's Well for Canadians it's 14 a Wow actually like fell on that perfectly in the end 12 strong is a watchable movie It's a generic popcorn flick military movie, but there are many other films that do The service much better than this film and the end 12 strong will most likely be forgotten and It is a January release mainly just for for how bland it is So in the end I'm gonna give 12 strong a 3 out of 7 you guys will maybe enjoy it But you really won't remember it after you've seen it. I saw it yesterday. I'm already forgetting things Anyways guys, that's all for me if you like this video leave a like down below and if you're interested maybe subscribe Anyways guys, that's all for me.
