A movie with no budget paying homage to big budget action movies, fun at least
16 October 2023
This movie is low budget. And it feels that way but at least it wastes no time, the movie gets straight into the action. Beautiful location for shooting which is ofcourse overdone.

The acting is good from the 5 main characters. Everyone seems to be having fun, with the lead actor seeming to enjoy playing an overconfident, stereotypical lead man (called Jonathan Danger after all). And it's actually funny at times, and not just because of some of the dialogue and settings but a couple of intended to be funny moments made me genuinely chuckle. Although i had to laugh at the very stupid ending of the film the most (is that it?).

In terms of sterotypes there's German stereotypes, (not a bad thing). Stereotypical flashbacks to add some emotional weight, which work to be fair.

It strangely has a great soundtrack harkening back to the old adventure films, which is again overdone and keep it loud wherever they can even when people are speaking.

There's a few Camera shots that make no sense (why are they filming the underside of a car? Lol).

Overall its fun, don't expect anything Oscar worthy or top action but it never takes itself too seriously.
