Watchable enough for what it was...
7 May 2022
I have to admit that when I sat down to watch the 2022 movie "Corrective Measures", I figured that this was just yet another mass produced shoddy movie with Bruce Willis. Yeah, his track record haven't really been all that great these past few years. Yet, I hadn't already seen "Corrective Measures", so of course I found the time to watch it.

The storyline, as written by Sean Patrick O'Reilly and Grant Chastain, was fair enough. Sure, this wasn't top notch entertainment, but actually "Corrective Measures" was enjoyable enough for what it was. And there were some aspects to the storyline that worked out better than others, of course. I will say that I found the prison facility for super powered inmates to be interesting. It wasn't a new concept, but still interesting enough.

"Corrective Measures" is watchable for a single viewing, as the storyline is pretty simplistic and requires no thinking or involvement from the audience. You simply just grab your snacks or beverage and lean back in the seat and watch the movie.

The movie as actually had a good cast ensemble, I will give it that much. I was especially thrilled to see Tom Cavanagh in the movie, as he brought so much charisma and flavor to the movie. Michael Rooker was also nicely cast for the movie. And in all honesty, then this movie was actually a step up for Bruce Willis, in comparison to the many shoddy and questionable movies recently.

Visually then "Corrective Measures" was okay. The movie would have benefitted somewhat from a more extensive usage and display of CGI and special effects, especially since the movie was did revolve around incarcerated people with super powers.

My rating of director Sean Patrick O'Reilly's 2022 movie "Corrective Measures" lands on a mediocre five out of ten stars.
