i’m usually not critical, but yeah, i didn’t like this movie. i’m sorry, but it’s just bad. not only is the plot incoherent, but the pacing is too fast, there’s little to no build up, especially in the transformation, there are some scenes and shots that literally have no use, and that’s not even mentioning some of the stupid choices some of the characters make. the only good thing from this film was the score. the transformation itself wasn’t bad either, though i honestly recommend you just watch the scene on youtube instead. it’s the only bit of thrill you’ll feel out of the entire film. i was foolish to have such high expectations. once again, excuse me for being so critical, as this is just my opinion, and i’m a sucker for 70s and 80s films as well, but my good lord, was that bad.
