I try to see every new film that comes out in the theaters. I have a theater only about a mile from my house so I go to see many films there to the point where the theater staff knows me (they don't get everything and sometimes I want to go elsewhere just for an IMAX version of a film, but I see over half of the films I go to there). They asked me what I was seeing and I could tell by their reaction they didn't think I was going to have a good experience. One of them said "I saw it last night and it wasn't that great" (they have free screenings for the staff). I knew this meant it had been horrid. I said "well I like most everything at least a bit" (I do) and went in. The film was worse than I imagined it could be and it indeed turned out to be one of those rare films I didn't like at all. What was wrong? Basically everything. The plot was just unbelievably bad, the costumes were bizarre, and the acting was, well I don't even think calling it acting was appropriate. What in the world was going on and why was Jamie Foxx's character even in it (I'm sure his reason for being in the film was along the line's of Michael Caine's for being in Jaws: The Revenge, the house he bought with the paycheck was really nice). Taron Egerton has to do a better job of selecting his roles. As bad as Billionaire Boys Club was, this makes that seem like Citizen Kane. As for the positives (to show I'm fair), Eve Hewson is very pretty and there were a lot of action scenes even if they were shot so poorly as to remind me of chickens running around with their heads cut off. Really wretched.
