Here is My Movie Review of Unhinged

So basically what happens is that you have this woman named Rachel Hunter and she is suffering through through financial trouble so what she decided to take her son Kyle To school and are they drive on the road that she Honks the horn at this guy named Tomes Cooper and they have an argument and after that Thomas Cooper decides to stock and harass her and teach her a lesson about what it's like to have a very bad day. It is up to Rachel Hunter and her son Kyle to survive against Thomas Cooper and that is basically what the story is for this film. To be perfectly honest the storyline in the film is so ridiculous that it's actually really interesting. 

Now the acting in this movie is so laughably bad but at the same time is very entertaining and there are points where the actors are trying to give good performances. 

Caren Pistorius gives a laughably bad performance as Rachel Hunter. But to be like there are points in this movie where she does try to give a good performance. Now the character of Rachel Hunter is so over the top because she panics a lot because Thomas Cooper is trying to kill her but at the same time you can see that she is going through financial difficulty with her family and probably the most laughably bad moment Is when she reacts to her boss firing her and it's just so cheesy and ridiculous to the point that's actually really funny. The chemistry between her and Gabrielle Bateman and Russell Crowe is decent.

Now Gabriel Bateman's performance as Kyle Flynn. Now Gabriel Bateman's performance is actually really good. He does a solid job as the character. Now the character of Kyle Flynn Is really interesting  because he can see the stress that his mother is going through having her going through financial Trouble trying to provide for the family. Probably the best moment with Kyle Flynn is where he sees Thomas Cooper for the first time in not only is it really Intense but it makes sense because she sees how unstable he is is probably one of the most memorable moments in the film. The chemistry between him and Caren Pistorius Is great. 

Now Russell Crowe plays  Thomas Cooper In the film and his performance is probably the most memorable thing in this film because Russell Crowe is hamming it up the entire time going over the top as possible. Now the character of Thomas Cooper is really over the top he screams a lot he raises his voice and that's what makes him so ridiculous but very entertaining he would kill anyone who gets in his way and his motivation in the film is so laughably stupid but it is really  funny because he does wants to kill Rachel Hunter and her son Kyle Flynn just because she honked at him during a red light when they were driving. I have to say Thomas Cooper probably had all of the best moments in this film. Probably the best moment with Thomas Cooper is when he is in this restaurant and starts yelling and beating up Rachel Hunter's boss Andy and it's supposed to be a very intense moment but due to Russell Crowe's performance it comes off as laughable but very entertaining to watch. Also the way he dies is just so funny Thomas Cooper is killed when Rachel Hunter Stabs them right in the eye with a pair of candy cane scissors. The rivalry between him and Rachel Hunter and her son Kyle Is decent. The chemistry between him and Caren Pistorius  Is still excellent. 

The directing by Derrick Borte Is so we have to be bad because this movie is supposed to be very dark but if you feel like he's trying to make this into a comedy film and that is exactly what he's doing because this movie is about to take really seriously but You can't really take it seriously because there's a lot of really over-the-top and unintentionally funny moments. Though I will give him credit for this, the social commentary he provides about road rage drivers is actually really awesome because there are people who have road rage issues who swore and honk their collar horns to get attention and just lead to more problems. 

So in conclusion I still think that is a really bad film. The performances is for the most part work but it is mostly very over the top acting.  The storyline is so laughably ridiculous to the point that it's actually a very interesting storyline for a movie. Also Russell Crowe is so over the top as Thomas Cooper to the point that he's very entertaining to watch and I still think he is up there with Nicolas Cage as Eddie from Deadfall as one of the most over-the-top villain Performances in a film. Now this is one of the worst 2020 movies. But because it is so laughably bad it is one of the more entertaining bad 2020 films. Now I give this movie a 2/10 because the characters are not the most memorable a lot of the characters are very dumb but because it is so over the top and crazy and Russell Crowe gives the over the top performance as Thomas Cooper to point that it is so laughably bad to the point that is very entertaining to watch. I have to say if you enjoy Speed 2 Cruise Control with Willem Dafoe is a movie that is so bad that it is actually good. I give this movie a 10/10.
