They Will Kill You delivers with fantastic fight scenes and a few welcomed twists to keep you entertained. Is it worthy of your next watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

Sylish, well-choreographed fight scenes.

If you like films like, The Raid, Boy Kills World, and Bullet Train, then this is right up your alley. The fight scenes were fantastic and there were plenty of gruesome and bloody moments. The humor also worked well so that the material didn’t become too stale by the end.

Zazie Beetz is fantastic!!!

She dominated this film in the best way possible. This was clearly such a physical and powerful role and I thought she was believable and definitely one to root for. She was bad-ass and then some! Wow!

The other characters were fun to watch as well. I always love seeing Heather Graham show up in horror films.

The Cons:

No real plot…

Look, I knew this film was going to be about action and it delivered in that aspect. However, the majority of the film is filled with very loud music accompanied with fight scenes so if you’re expecting a well-layered plot, you won’t get that here.

There was a story-line at the back end of everything, but it wasn’t fleshed out enough. I still cared enough about the characters, but I could tell that wasn’t the goal of this movie.

So am I in or out?

I’m in!!

They Will Kill You is mindless fun with a strong female lead to root for against all odds.

It was only supposed to be temporary…but when Olivia Crewe accepts a new position that seems too good to be true, she soon discovers that twelve other girls previously had the same job as her. Only none of them lasted for more than thirty days. No notice. Nothing…right before they mysteriously disappeared without a trace.

Spoiler-Free Review of “Fight or Flight” in Theaters: Josh Hartnett is Bad-Ass and Bonkers in this Breezy Action Thriller!

*This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!*

“I’m done…”

Fight or Flight released in US theaters on May 9th 2025. It previously released in the UK back in February 2025. The action thriller film stars Josh Hartnett, Charithra Chandran, Julian Kostov, and Katee Sackhoff. It runs for approximately an hour and forty minutes.

Here is the trailer:

Fight or Flight is filled with non-stop action and plenty of gruesome fight scenes. Is it worthy of YOUR next watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

Josh Hartnett dominates the screen!

I am so happy that he is appearing in films again. I loved him in last year’s Trap and he was bloody fantastic in Fight or Flight as well. He knows how to bring on the charm even during bonkers moments and it just worked perfectly with his character.

This film was far from serious and he just went with it. I loved all of his ill-fitting outfits so much and his expressions were priceless.

Brutal fight scenes!

Similar to films like Bullet Train and John Wick, this film delivered with insane fight scenes. Some of them were really inventive and they didn’t hold back in the gore department, which was appreciated.

Sure, they were outrageous and far-fetched, but they were also really entertaining, giving us plenty of blood-soaked moments to indulge in.

The Cons:

The external scenes weren’t as effective.

I personally preferred the moments within the bubble of the plane. The pacing was great and the elements of humor worked for the most part. When the film tried to explain things too much or show us scenes outside of this bubble, it didn’t work as well. There were some really fun supporting characters and others I could have done without.

So am I in or out?

Fight or Flight is mindless bloody fun, featuring an entertaining performance by Josh Hartnett.

Enjoy the ride!

A VACATION TO DIE FOR…

Blood Rose Island Ad

When sisters, Nina and Gemma are vacationing in Hawaii with their friends, they get invited to an exclusive party on a private island that seems too good to be true. There’s only one rule…they can’t miss their ferry at midnight or they’ll have to wait until morning to leave the island. Only they didn’t realize that breaking this rule meant they would be hunted down on the island one by one.

Who will make it off the island alive?

I hope you enjoy my island thriller!

*This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!*

“My bad luck is biblical…”

Here is the trailer:

Bullet Train is thoroughly entertaining with its welcomed humor and fun fight scenes. Is it worthy of your next watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

Bullet Train Spoiler Free 1

Really fun characters!

The cast was absolutely incredible in this film and I loved every single character. Some cast members had smaller roles than others and we also got some amazing cameos, but I really loved the entire ensemble. I could watch this movie over and over again because of the character dynamics.

Loved every second of it!

Pure entertainment from start to finish!

This is one of those films where you can really just sit back, relax, and turn off your mind for a while. There was such a fantastic balance of comedy and action in this one and it really gave me a Guy Ritchie vibe, which was a good thing. I loved the setting of the train, which really complimented the fast pace. The fight scenes were a lot of fun and I’m always thrilled to see Hiroyuki Sanada showing off his skills in any film. He always dominates the screen!

The Cons:

Bullet Train Spoiler Free 3

The plot doesn’t travel too far…

I didn’t personally feel the need to dig deeper with this particular plot. I accepted the film for what it was and enjoyed every second of it, but if you’re looking for something with a little more substance and meaning, it’s lacking in that department. Again, I think this just comes down to preference. 

So am I in or out?

A fun ride from start to finish with a talented cast! One of the most entertaining films I have seen in a long time!
