[4.75/10] Polar (2019)

Polar (2019)

Quick Review: Tonally wrong and stylistically distasteful, "Polar" can't decide if it wants to be a fun shoot- em-up caper with a touch of goofy comedy, or a dark assassin thriller with an emotional twist, with the end result being a tacky-looking clutter with mediocre dialogues, a generic plot with an even weaker backstory, fabricated comic book feel, cheesy villain, random violence, and "John Wick"-ripped-off action, which even the charismatic Mikkelsen struggles to truly invest himself in.

Is that your rating?

If I had seen this a few weeks ago it would possibly be the worst film of 2018. It's all over the place it feels like it was directed by about three people making radically different films all at once.

Simon, I've seen worse, but yeah, it was a total mess.
