Warmachine (2026) - Greg - 03-08-2026
Somebody quit Netflix way too early because Warmachine rules!
Okay, it doesn't rule, but as origin stories for Jack Reacher go, it was pretty interesting.
Okay, it wasn't the origin story for Jack Reacher but it should be.
Alan Ritchson promises to join the rangers after a terrible experience in Afghanistan. Basically, that is all he wants to do. Fulfill his promise. He doesn't want to hang with the guys. He doesn't leadership. He wants to do the stuff, get the patch, and leave. Most of the first third of the movie is him going through Ranger training school and all those problems. To graduate they have to do the death march (Stupid name) It's during the death march that the fun things happen. There are some crazy set pieces that make you wince from the over amped sound effects. Lots of cringe worthy blood shed. Lots of impossible things to do that go awry. It was plenty of fun and has been noted many times, I know fun.
The last ten minutes was all pretty lame. The valuable lesson is learned. They set up maybe a sequel or an ongoing series. I really can't watch Dennis Quaid any more and he was a big part of the ending. I suggest turning the movie off maybe after the final big explosion.
