A lot of fun.
A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
Blistering performances.
The movie really just wants to entertain people.
Can't understand why there's so much bad rating about this movie. This movie is perfect! There are some minor flaws, as others action movies have, but this... It's just perfect. It's like Desperado, like there's more money for Robert Rodriguez to do a better a better movie. If you don't care about perfectness, just watch it to have some fun with some crazy action movie, go and watch it.
What can you say about this repulsive, mindless film?If you liked Boondock Saints, you'll love this. Have we become so desensitized to violence that we now need films like this to titillate and shock us? On what planet would a decent person be *entertained* by this bloodbath? You've heard of food porn? Well, this must be death porn, or gore porn.The plot is...are you kidding me? There is no plot. Just cold, unfeeling, dehumanizing death, torture, and destruction.I felt numb after watching this film, like a little part of my soul died with every thud of a corpse.
Too far fetched to be taken anywhere near seriously. Always love seeing Salma but this film becomes predictable and boring way too soon. Kill Bill does it so much better and its a shame. Salma needs more parts that give her a chance to really act. Frida is an excellent example. Hope later opportunities are better for her than this.
Very few films make me cringe due to their sheer ineptitude, but EVERLY is such a film. It combines absolutely horrid direction - by a guy who did WRONG TURN 2 and who can't decide on whether he wants to make a serious action flick or a comic book style piece of hyper-entertainment - and a terrible script by a guy who thinks substituting proper dialogue for expletive-laden inanity is the way to make a film sound good. Wrong, buddy.It's a pity, because the premise is one I'd enjoy if done correctly: a woman is assailed in her apartment by a Yakuza gang intent on wiping her out. But the problems pile up from the word go, particularly with the extremely embarrassing scenes of the female prostitutes/assassins early on. Most directors tell their performers to tone down their performances, but the non-actors here go over the top for all their worth, leading to some awful moments.In addition, we get another non-performance from a clearly out-of-her-depth Salma Hayek, who's never been much of an actress and who flounders in a lead role. Still, the cameraman is more interested in shooting down her top than trying to capture any kind of real emotion from her. There's a lot of action here, and some sadism, but it's mostly dire, and the single location style set-up is done better in B-movies such as SUSHI GIRL. Occasionally it has moments of worth - the sub-plot with Togo Igawa promises a few moments of TOKYO GORE POLICE-style surrealness, and Akie Kotabe is very good - but overall EVERLY is a disastrous attempt at film-making.
