- ርልዪረ8 de febrero de 2025Five out of Five - 5/5 I was expecting brainless disaster that is going to insult my intelligence like "The Great Outdoors" and "Kangaroo Jack." Eventually, believe it or not, what I have gotten instead is literally a big surprise. I was not expecting this sci-fi action flick to be so dramatic, and I was very entertained from beginning to end. "Rampage" is created with intent to deliver pure entertainment value with exhilarating intensity and with a tongue-in-cheek feel to it, that's because it feels like fun Saturday morning entertainment. Throughout the film, it feels like an old-fashioned throwback that is reminiscent of creature features from the 1950s, "Mighty Joe Young," and reflects some nature documentaries, and manages to smartly tweak these elements together. Brad Peyton (director/co-producer) is at his best; He was not going for a fictional film loosely based on true events (San Andreas) and he was not going for stupidity (Journey 2: The Mysterious Island). The movie's tongue-in-cheek feel really knows how and when to be funny in an unintentionally silly way due to it's nicely-utilized tone, and Brad Peyton's slick direction. The screenplay by Ryan Engle is so compelling; it is more than just a sci-fi action flick about giant monsters, it is a simple character-driven story that has a lot of heart, as it embraces teamwork, communication, heroism, friendship, and also animal welfare. The action sequences are pounding with adrenaline and smartly-written, the stakes are really high, and the sheer impact is so intense. There is even a superb use of slow motion. I must add that there are some scenes that deliver such moving pathos. Visually, it is a striking film with vibrant lighting and impressive detail. The visual effects in particular are awe-inspiring. The score by Andrew Lockington is dramatically robust enough to elevate the film with sweeping strings, bombastic brass, thumping percussion, and sometimes, a choir. The cast did a great job with their performances with realistic precision, and the characters are fleshed-out, flawed and redeemable. Specifically, the protagonists do have some character arcs throughout the plot. The character interactions are so agreeable. Dwayne Johnson (The Rock) is at his best here as Davis Okoye. Dwayne's acting makes his character feel genuinely grounded. As a protagonist, Davis is charismatic; he is a primatologist who works for an anti-poaching unit, has a passion for animals, and has a hatred of humans, especially poachers. Dr. Kate (Naomie Harris) may tell foolish lies, but she is a genetic engineer who use to formerly work for a company called "Energyne," yet she is a great supportive role model for Davis. Harvey Russell (Jeffery Morgan) is a government agent who is also a supportive character with the heart of gold. The main antagonists are the Wyden siblings; Claire Wyden (Malin Akerman) is the scheming and ruthless CEO of Energyme, while Brett Wyden (Jake Lacey) is a melodramatic sidekick. Their goal is to mutate three animals with pathogens, and bring the beasts to a tall building so that the siblings can kill them for experiment. George is a dominant male albino gorilla with savage power and a puckish sense of humor. Jason Liles uses motion capture to bring George to tangible life. Palpable and appealing, the chemistry between Davis and George is pleasing to watch as they speak via sign language and joke around with each other. In conclusion: engrossing and stirring, "Rampage" is a major highlight of 2018. Highly Recommended (suitable for teens fourteen and up).
