This a cool, fun, and crazy movie. It reminded me of movies such as Hardcore Henry or Nerve. It is as is those 2 movies were joined together. There is a lot of action coupled with fun moments in which Daniel Radcliffe does a good job with his role.
The story is about a criminal online platform that is controlled by very dangerous individuals and allows users to watch in real-time as people kill each other for the sake of some online competition. It is a very sick "game", which is why it reminded me of Nerve. The almost nonstop and crazy action is what reminded me of Hardcore Henry.
The main character is a coder that finds himself trapped inside this game against his will. He will now be forced to fight in order to survive, and since he doesn't know anything about being violent he is in deep trouble.
This movie isn't meant to be considered as something serious or thought-provoking. This is simply an action movie, its only goal is to provide some fun for the viewers. The camera work was nice and there were some interesting angles and camera moves throughout the movie.
It is mostly a movie for younger audiences and those that are familiar with videogames. The characters were interesting, and the bad guys were really evil-looking. The entire film is very picturesque and thanks to its pace it will easily keep the viewer engaged in the film. The humor, unlike recent movies like 6 Underground, didn't feel generic to me.
If you enjoy the type of films I mentioned before and if you are looking for a cool action movie, then Guns Akimbo will be a good choice. It has some blood in it which is necessary due to the nature of this film, but it is not extremely bloody and the violence isn't that hardcore. It is designed to be fun not cruel or disturbing.
The best
- Nonstop and fun action. It gave a similar experience as the one I had when watching Hardcore Henry for the first time, although Guns Akimbo isn't as hardcore or extreme and it is not filmed using the first person POV.
- Appropriate funny lines. The main character was likable and his first enemy, the killer girl you see above, was cool.
The worst
- There isn't enough information about the origins of the criminal and crazy platform.
