It's the yellow color from "Kill Bill" and plot bases of "Hunger Games", which made love to "Guns Akimbo" madness and comedy bits and you just get this crazy and very very fun movie. If you look for any big-time actors except Bill Skarsgård, you will not find a lot, from the A-List.
The B-List provides some great names, though: Sharlto Copley and Famke Janssen are the biggest names in the cast and Yayan Ruhian (that is familiar from "The Raid" movies) is also a familiar face, but except them, it is a movie that is based heavily on Skarsgård's character. Jessica Rothe (from "Happy Death Day") comes also as one familiar face, but you can understand that it is a movie, that doesn't need big names, it has all within the creator's hands.
Moritz Mohr makes tremendous work with directing this genre mash-up of thriller, grotesque, gore and wild action in a movie that took its plot bases from the "Hunger games", its gory and bloody action principles from "Kill Bill" and took the comedy and madness from "Guns Akimbo", or at least this is how I saw it and those are the names that came up through the process of watching this movie.
It's a boy that lost his mother and sister to a ruthless ruler in a dystopian world, within a ceremony that takes place each year, which demands a sacrifice of several human beings that interfere the ruler with her jobs to rule and keep the streets clean. The boy is trained by a master, to become the ultimate warrior, with one target in his head... the leader of the city and on the day of the year, when she wants to harvest the innocent victims.
The plot stages are pretty well known, but the execution is something else and also the development takes different direction when the main characters is actually a deaf mute and one that talks to his dead sister memory-character. The twist and turns are a lot of fun and surprisingly well crafted + a bonus part with a macaron cookie.
It's a surprisingly well-made action gory movie, that mixes a lot of fun time and laughs with Disgusting moments, but the final result is a movie that you cannot and do not want to skip or miss. It was due to Jeremy Jahns' review, I was even aware to this movie and now it is the right time to really thank him, from the bottom of my heart.
