Hello Cinephiles,
Today we’re talking about the 2020 film Boss Level.
Story
A hyper violent time loop story. I’m surprised there aren’t more than a few of these. The story was good and unfolded well but felt like the character development wasn’t as extreme as most time loop movies. The ending felt like the screenwriters got stuck and couldn’t think of anything better.
Score: 0.5
Characters
The main character is likeable and trying really hard to pretend to be a dick. The interactions and emotion with his son are the best part of the movie.
The rest of the cast does a great job but most of them are very cartoonish.
Score: 0.5
Dialogue
The narration was fantastic and the snappy dialogue was a lot of fun. Again, the dialogue between the main character and his son make the movie.
Score: 1
Visuals and Music
The action was great, the cinematography passable, and the special effects were well done.
The music was perfect for the film.
Score: 1
Fun
I watched this one on my own and there are so many fun moments but the ending was so bad it made me enjoy the movie less.
Score: 0.5
Overall
A run of the mill time loop movie where the action and character drama are fantastic but the story and ending are mediocre.
Final Score: 3.5 Stars out of 5
