Collide (2017) movie review

This is the type of movies that has big names in it, but do not cause any improvements and only add a question: "What are they doing in this film?". Every great actor, who is in this film is worth more than just an average action movie with cheap chase scenes and written in haste scenario. I'm not saying this movie is bad. It is very very average. 

This is just a simple story, filmed with a sufficient quality. Nicholas Hoult obviously tried, he seemed good in the film, he was its best part. The rest of the cast just did it for the paycheck. For me, that is just a waste of their time and talent. Ben Kingsley played the same type of character as the Mandarin from Iron Man 3, Anthony Hopkins played the stereotypical drug lord, and Felicity Jones probably did not even notice that she was in this movie, just bringing her talent to it, but nothing more. She was in a nice shape, probably due to her Star Wars shooting. 

It's a love story, and one day she gets ill, and he returns to his old life of theft in order to save her. The love story adds emotion and even some pleasure watching this movie. Felicity Jones and Nicholas Hoult have some nice chemistry together. Their performances in general work for this movie. Most of which I watched with interest, but the plot is very predictable and sometimes dull. That the ending completely lost my interest, after a rather silly turns in the plot. It just did not deliver, considering how poor some scenes were. And overall, having a weak plot and average action scenes, combined with the lack of satisfaction, this movie can definitely be called not bad, but very average. It is forgettable, but it's not a bad film after all.
