It’s useless, there are films to which we can’t connect, which bore us in their endless minutes! It could be a huge collection of shots, a lack of character development, or even a lack of creativity when crafting a narrative. With that in mind, we’ve rounded up a few productions (in the writer’s opinion) below that fit that storyline.

Take the time to watch:

Each of them is known by a number. In a back and forth via flashbacks during the main action, we get to know some recruitments and a little more about the history of the whole team.
extreme
The legend of the Spanish samurai. Directed by Spanish filmmaker Daniel Benmayor, in his fourth feature, Xtremo is a mix of drama and action with plenty of violent scenes that take revenge (almost a cliche when you think of motives) to justify all the killing and the need to in the imperfect codes of ethics of the skilled killers that appear throughout the tiring nearly two hours. The intention to embark on a deep dive into the established drama is the hole in the boat of this project, whose choreographies recall certain Asian films of the last decades.

Thus, Cassie and Sonny engage in a bloody battle, the first trying to survive in the hands of this madman and the second, well the second we do not understand the madness and the goals of this character.

In the worst cat-and-mouse style, the two fight for life or death with failed attempts at psychological terror.

Reading this synopsis, it sounds like a mystery movie, doesn’t it? But in fact, 50 Shades of Grey, instead of provoking, ends up generating something else: sleep.
