Here is My Movie Review of Kraven The Hunter

 


Here is My Movie Review of Kraven The Hunter



Now when this film was announced I was very much against the idea of a Kraven the Hunter movie because I knew that they are going to get this character wrong and they did because they essentially took everything about Kraven The Hunter and ruined him because they make him into a good guy. and that's not what he is, Kraven is supposed to be just pure evil. So I watched the film and finished it. Let me tell you this film is not only the worst comic book film of all time. But this is the second worst film I have ever seen in my life yes it's even worse than Joker Folie A Deux because that film is  shit and I fucking hate it. But at least there were two good things I can say about that film, Danicing in the Moonlight and the cinematography was actually really great. But with this film I couldn't even say anything that's good about it because it's virtually nothing I can say that is entertaining and I couldn't even laugh about how bad this movie was because with other horrible movie that I've seen I can  laugh about how stupid they are like Capone with Tom Hardy I can watch Tom Hardy shit his pants and that is a lot more funny than anything in this film. I can go on other movies I like to laugh at about how stupid they are but with this I just simply cannot do it. 





Now let's talk about the storyline I'm going to be completely and utterly series here i can't tell you what it is I legit can't tell you what the storyline is because this movie is very similar to Megalopolis from 2024 because both of these movies have no storyline because both movies are a mess and turn the storyline and writting because at least with other horrible movies i haven't seen I can only tell you what the storyline is for some of those movies like Capone, Speed 2 Cruise Control, Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes you know what fuck it even that film had a way better storyline then this piece of shit did because at least I can fucking explain what Tim Burton´s Planet of the Apes is about. Now trust me we'll get to the horrible acting. 




You know, let's just dive into right now let's talk about the atrocious acting in this film because look I have seen some really bad movies with some really bad acting like The Snowman from 2017, Death Note 2017, Firestarter 2022, Green Lantern 2011. Now I can go on and talk about other movies with bad acting but at least with these movies that i am talking about at least they have one or two good performances. But with this movie no there were no good performances. 







Now let´s about Aaron Taylor Johnson and I'm going to be completely honest I was really against him playing Kraven The Hunter because what I saw him in the trailer he did not look like the character and I was completely right because he does not resemble his character from the comics at all because he does not put on a Russian accent now in the beginning of the movie he does a little bit but he most was using an American accent and that was completely fucking stupid because every comic book fan knows that Kraven is Russian, and I'm going to say this I think this is the worst super villain casting choice of all time and it is up there with Lady Gaga as Harley Quinn from Joker 2 as well the dumbest casting choices of all time. Now I went on about the performance how is the character of Kraven the Hunter in the film it's actually far worse than any comic book character brought to life yes it managed to be even worse than Apocalypse from X-Men Apocalypse because in this film they decided to make Kraven into a good guy and not like a villain like they promised in the trailers. Also his costume looks like garbage and when I looked at it I was like sitting here I was like that don't look like the costume from the comics that was like Jake Gyllenhaal in that piece of shit film Known as Prince of Persia because it doesn't even wear his iconic like coat that he can wear in the comics you wear them a few times but mostly he like wearing The costume from Prince of Persia. Also I can't even tell you any good scenes with Kraven The Hunter because they're all fucking lame because all the scenes were really boring and trust me we'll talk about the pacey of this film later on. 




Ariana DeBoes Plays Calypso in this film in her performance if so unbearable to sit through it feels like she's just reading off the script and you can tell that she did not want to do this movie it feels like he just wanted to walk off set and just not do this film at all. Now I'm going to say this if you think her performance and Love Hurts was bad when she played the character Rose in that film i'm going to be completely honest she was a lot more badass and cooler in that film than she was in this film because the character that she played in Love Hurts Rose was a lot more fun and a lot more interesting and the character because the character she plays in this film calypso is so bad and so boring all she does is give expedition and the movie tried to make her and Kraven into like a couple or like friends and it does not work at all I'm going to say this they have no chemistry throughout this entire movie because you can't really buy them as friends or boyfriend girlfriend you just can't. I'm going to say that the chemistry between her and Aaron Taylor Johnson was fucking shit because they had no chemistry in this film whatsoever it feel like both of them didn't want to do this movie together and I'm going to go and say this I think Ariana DeBoes and Ke Huy Quan had better chemistry in Love Hurts then she did with Aaron Taylor Johnson in this film. 



Now the actor who plays Chameleon Kraven´s brother is so terrible he is completely miss cast because His performance feels like it's from a horrible Spider-Man musical adaptation because every time he he said something in the film I was like nobody cares in the words of Dr Robotnik from The Sonic the Hedgehog movies nobody cares because the character of Chameleon is a mess because much like Kraven in the film they make chameleon Americanized he doesn't even have a Russian accent in this film and he's just so boring and very Bland and in the comics his face is supposed to be like Pure White because he had that serum injected into him Then give them the power to disguise himself as anyone. Well in this film it happens in the last 5 minutes in the movie So that concept Completely wasted because the only uses his mimicry skills from the comics the only time he does it is again at the end. This film also got his origin wrong because in the comics before he meets Kraven as an adult he escapes from a mental institution and here they just know each other since they were kids which was so dumb. Not to mention this film has one of the dumbest moments I have ever seen in a comic book film and yes it's even dumber than the dancing scene in Spider-Man 3 and I'm going to say this this was a million times worse then the dancing scene with Imam Vellani from The Marvels and that is where you have the chameleon he's in the bar he's on stage and he grabbed the microphone and he literally starts seeing a fucking Harry Style song and it is the most dumbest moments you'll ever see in a comic book film because at least with the dancing scene in The Marvels it was shorter and it was way more tolerable to sit through and actually entertaining then the chameleon singing in this film. Also there is no chemistry between the two characters because it feels like they're just too completely different strangers that don't even know each other yet they randomly know each other in this film. Also the chemistry between Fred Hechinger and Aaron Taylor Johnson is so bad they have no chemistry throughout this entire movie they have as much chemistry Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga had in Joker 2 it's that kind of shitty chemistry. 




Now Russell Crowe is the only actor that is seemingly giving a good performance but to be honest it was just really boring because of nothing interesting about the performance all I saw was just Russell Crowe play himself now I will say though he did attempt to put on Russian accent but did not work because it was just really blade and really dull Because he plays cravens dad in the film it just feels like he just wanted to get this movie over with because it feels like he's just not having any fun doing the film. I know a lot of people say that he's not that bad in this movie But to me he was just really boring. Also Cravens dad at a character is just so boring he's about to be the secondary villain it just does not work he's just there to say Kraven you have to be like me you have to kill as many people as you can and that was just really bland and really stupid and the chemistry between him and Aaron Taylor Johnson does not work because it feels like they are in a generic action movie and not a comic book film.




 Now let's talk about The Rhino in this film because it managed to be even dumber than Paul Giamatti’s Rhino from The Amazing Spider-Man 2 because that one is really stupid and really weird. Now the actor who's playing rhino in the film Is getting the most praise because people say he knows the kind of movie he is in. But I did not like his accent. I did not like the person that got to play the Rhino and like just get him off the screen and get an actual professional Russian actor to play the character. Also you don't understand why he wants to kill Kraven the hunter you just don't because the movie did not explain it at all. Now the character of Rhino in the mess because in this film he said that the rhino skin is like a skin condition he has which is not accurate to the comics at all because in the comic books Rhino was experimenting on and that's why he Was covered in armor-plated Skin that resembled a rhino. But here they're like no let's just not be like Killer Croc from DC who had a skin condition. Also this is probably up there with Lady Gaga's Harley Quinn as  the worst comic to movie adaptations you will ever see. The chemistry between Alessandro And Aaron Taylor Johnson is terrible because it feels like they're a really bad '90s comic book film with a super low budget and not like a high budgeted  comic book film From the 2010s or this decade. 




So acting sucks, characters suck. The villains are really boring. What about the action? This is the first R-rated Sony Marvel film and let me tell you all the best moments from this movie are shown in the trailer. Even in the trailer I always thought that The action sequences were going to be very, very stupid. Also the scene where Kraven bites the guy's nose off. I swear it was a lot longer in the trailer but  When you watch the movie it's just immediately shortened. This film has the worst action sequences out of any comic book film or any movie I have ever seen because the action in Black Widow is not great but it is way better than the action sequences in this film. Although the final battle in this film is so stupid because there's no high stakes to it although the way Rhino gets killed it kind of reminds me of the way Mufasa gets killed in The Lion King with the Wildebeest trampling him to death except it's happened to the Rhino but here it's a lot more  stupid. But the difference is The Lion King takes that moment really seriously because Scar wanted to be king of Pride Rock so he killed his brother to accomplish his mission. But here it's just really dumb and really Bland and although the CGI blood looks really fake because it does not look real at all. I'm going to say that the blood in Love Hurts was a lot more realistic than the blood in the film. 



However the worst thing about this movie is the directing by J.C. Chandor because I don't know what he was trying to do with this piece of shit of a movie because it's very obvious that he does not know how to write a storyline for craving the hunter because as I said this movie has no storyline and he didn't get everything wrong about these characters he makes craving to a good guy he makes the Rhino even dumber than he already was in the Amazing Spider-Man 2 Although he tries to develop a romance between Kraven and Calypso does not work whatsoever because both characters have no chemistry whatsoever. I think this is the worst directed film of 2024 and that is saying because Joker 2 was directed horribly  by Todd Phillips because he ruined everything that the first film did. So overall I think he did a horrible job directing this film. It is obvious he doesn't know anything about these characters from the comics. 




So in conclusion I fucking despised every minute of this movie because not only in this movie really dumb it is so unbelievably boring as fuck because all of it is just exposition that is the entire film it's just characters talking because we need to learn about these characters. Also I was so bored with this movie that I went on the chat GBT and ask what are the weirdest casting choices for Marvel villains it said Nicolas Cage as Ultron and to be completely honest I would rather watch  Nicholas Cage voice Ultron because with that be entertaining me bad because I can watch Nicholas Cage go over the top as Ultron just over acting in just screaming at the top of his lungs and I will find that entertaining because Nicholas Cage knows that he's in a bad film because he's self-aware of what movie he is doing also I do think people will praise Nicolas Cage and Ultron as one of the best worst villain performances of all time. Also the final battle in this movie and I guess as well as all the action sequences are really bad because even though this movie is Rated R it does not execute the R rating at all in fact they do it in the laziest way possible. I'm going to say this even though this movie was never Rated R Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom was actually darker and more scary but more entertaining than this movie was the fact that it was a PG-13 adventure film because the acting was a million times better. The characters that were actually interesting. Also Mola Ram as a villain was a lot more scarier than the Rhino in this film and that is really stupid the fact that a PG-13 adventure film managed to push the violence way better than this film it just shows how pathetic this movie is and the fact that it was dead on rival the 2nd it went in the theaters. To be honest this movie is up there with Joker 2 as the worst films I've ever seen in my life. Also I'm going to say this I will rather watch all bad Comic  films like Ghost Rider 1 and 2, X3 X-Men the Last Stan, Ant-Man The Wasp Quantum Mania, Captain Marvel, The Marvels, Captain America Brave New World, The theatrical cut of Justice League, Constantine, Thor Love and Thunder, Spider-Man 3, The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Suicide Squad, Green Lantern 2011, Madame web, X-Men Origins Wolverine, even the comic book film that I despised so much Batman Versus Superman Dawn of Justice I would rather watch that 7 million times than to ever watch this film again. I say just got this fucking piece of shit and just go watch any other comic book film even the bad one they're 1,000 times more bearable then the film. You know go watch The Room with Tommy Wiseau at least you can laugh at that film because of how stupid it is. I give this movie a -5000/10 fuck this movie and it gets an ornery fuck you to Sony.
