Viewing Notes

Wanna say that Uwe Boll’s Far Cry (2008) is par for the course in his path of video game adaptation destruction but really this movie is just uninteresting and rather boring. That fact that he’s more than content to follow a screenplay that has nothing to do with the game is surely his MO as is the inclusion of pathetic humorous elements in a very intentionally non-humorous storyline is also the hand of Uwe. But nothing here makes this even remotely worth watching. I was so bored half-way thru I started reading a book. The final act is action packed but still left me unmoved and counting the seconds for the credits to roll.
