Watch Jonah Hex For Free

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

DC Comic movie adaptation of "Jonah Hex" is one mess of a movie. A production budget of 47 Million Dollar put down to lowest corner of a Warner Bros. lot dumpster. Screen writing pair Mark Neveldine & Brian Taylor gladly moved on as first-choice directors in favor for the movie "Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vegeance" (2011), which did not really improved the situation for the partially innovative directors of "Crank" (2006) on the emerging domination of Marvel comic book adaptations with "Iron Man" (2008-2013) and "Captain America" (2011-2016) as front-runners. They made room for director Jimmy Hayward, who had at no time the picture under control, even though the promising ensemble cast starting from Josh Brolin in the title-given role accompanied by actress Megan Fox, who together share probably the most entertaining moments in "Jonah Hex"; a movie that glorifies booze, whoring and any acts of violence in a Neo-Western scenario with PG-13 rating, received through the MPAA butcher shop and green-lit WB executives, which brought the running time down to 75 Minutes (excluding the end credits), not worth any box office ticket; to actors John Malkovich and Michael Fassbender as double-team nemesis of anti-hero "Jonah Hex", who clearly had fun with their role variations, yet at no time were pressured by the director to make this picture a 90 Minute thrill-ride with no cheap looking animated flash-forward fill-ins and clear cut hardcore R-rated showdown on an unless promising battleship destroyer location, missing any passion for the original graphic novel content, where the main character, a former confederate soldier of the U.S. civil war, revived my Native Americans, who has the gift of awakening the dead by touching their skin and delivering punchline as "Cut myself shaving.", on getting asked on his disfiguring facial scar origins before sending the questioner pistol-shot to hell.© 2017 Felix Alexander Dausend (Cinemajesty Entertainments LLC)

I have seen worse movies, but this is on that list! A simplified version of a violent DC Comics "Weird Western" anti-hero, raised by the "Indians". Hex gets resurrected twice. The first-time in the animated titles. When he "comes back" a bird flies out of his mouth! He can talk to the recently dead, which allows him to apologize to Quentin Trumbull's son, whom he killed, and also to get directions. Really! Basically, a trumped-up "Wild Wild West" type plot involving a super cannonball, invented by Eli Whitney, which glows-in-the-dark and has nitroglycerin or atomic destructive powers. Quentin Trumbull devises a "Gatling Gun" that launches these things on either land or by sea. He wants to re-start The Civil War and he is insane. Revenge and murder trigger the feud between Hex and Trumbull after Hex is branded with a heinous scar on his face and jaw. Like most westerns, it's a chase movie. Almost every principle character gets to kill someone in the most violent way possible. Guns, knifes, fists, fire, explosions. Even "Lilah" (Hex's prostitute girlfriend) has her turn. There's a battleship fight between two "Ironclad" ships as well. Violent and disturbing but better than expected! Hex is pardoned by President Grant and rides off into the sunset with his trusty horse and wolf-dog at his side. A real "curio" and a big unpopular "bomb" at the box-office. Under 75 minutes with extended titles, but seems longer.

I'm no big fan of comic book adaptations, but even by the standards of the genre, JONAH HEX is a terrible film. I should have guessed that the taint of Neveldine & Taylor (responsible for directing CRANK: HIGH VOLTAGE and GHOST RIDER: SPIRIT OF VENGEANCE) was on this one, as it has the same bargain basement quality, hyperactive child look and feel. Even if they didn't direct (that job went to a Pixar animator, of all people) the film still looks like one of their efforts.The story is about a scarred, supernatural gunslinger looking for revenge on the guys who murdered his wife. Josh Brolin plays it gruff and miserable, and is just about passable; given that he's virtually unrecognisable beneath the makeup, I guess he gets away with it. The supporting cast aren't so lucky. John Malkovich hams it up as the bad guy, and as for Megan Fox, well she appears to have the kiss of death in terms of the quality of the films in which she stars. The only person who comes away with any credibility is Michael Fassbender, whose henchman villain is more menacing than the chief bad guy.Elsewhere, the film is a mess of poorly-shot action and endless CGI. 90% of the thing is shot in near pitch blackness so you can't really see what's going on, and you easily miss cameoing stars like Michael Shannon and Jeffrey Dean Morgan. The action is an awful, over-directed mess, with an emphasis on boring CGI explosions and the like, and as for the story...well, what story? Give this mess a miss at all costs.

Jonah Hex (2010): Dir: Jimmy Hayward / Cast: Josh Brolin, John Malkovich, Megan Fox, Michael Fassbender, Will Arnett: Obscure comic book superhero made into an embarrassing showcase and deserving box office bomb. Jonah Hex has the ability to communicate with dead people after being put to death himself. He was forced to watch his wife and son burn to death. Now he wants revenge on those responsible. Directed to uninspired heights by Jimmy Hayward with superb special effects and facial makeup on Josh Brolin as Hex. Brolin is basically a one man killing machine as Hex and nothing more. John Malkovich is wasted as a cardboard villain threatening mankind with a doomsday device. Can he not come up with a better plan? It is depressing witnessing an actor of Malkovich's calibre wasted in shameless world domination schemes that were made fun of in Austin Powers. Megan Fox is fetching yet laughable as a feisty prostitute. She is yet another one of these women whom appears totally sexual yet dislikes the attention and when pressured she waves a knife about as to make viewers believe that she is tough as oppose to a joke. Michael Fassbender also appears for all the good it will do him. Will Arnett enlist in Jonah Hex's services but what he should have done is enlist in an agent that doesn't dupe him into projects like this. Superhero films are usually the item of profit but when viewers are mostly unfamiliar with it then the filmmakers are potentially kicking themselves in the ass by even thinking it will be a hit. The result is an idiotic pointless contraption should be hexed with a hatchet. Score: 2 / 10
