filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
cashovina This is good example how very good movie can be turn to disaster buy media and sheep who follows. I just red that Josh Brolin said that he would like to erase Jonah Hex. Well i can understand the guy. The movie was shattered by the critics, media and public for no reason. This is a great movie. Nothing bad with the story. Great effects. Great acting. Much more fun than all of the Spiderman boring movies for example. If u are a fan of comic based movies. This is it. Is the Black Panther a better movie than this? Not a chance. I think it is worse. But the critics didn´t shatter that one. No sir. I could go all day like that. But i will have much more fun to watch Jonah Hex one more time.
Platypuschow Jonah Hex is in the history books as one of the biggest flops in movie history, not only did it bomb financially but it was connected to a whole host of negative awards such as worst actor, worst actress, worst on screen couple and worst movie.But how do you make a movie that stars Josh Brolin, John Malkovich, Michael Shannon and co bad?! Well, this is how.I think what is even more surprising is that this is a DC effort, and may we never see Jonah somehow added to the universe they are creating.Jonah Hex tells the tale of the titular character on a quest for revenge after a man murderers his family and mutilates his face. He becomes a bounty hunter, righting wrongs and hunting the man who took everything from him.The cast is solid, in fact the cast is so solid that even Megan Fox delivered a decent performance (I don't understand the criticism of her accent) and Fassbender (Who I can't stand) actually was entertaining here.;So what went wrong? Primarily because it's copy and paste predictible brainless Hollywood nonsense. It's like there is a template that people use and just interchange the setting and characters.It's not THAT bad, but it's a generic paint by numbers dumb movie that is too violent for kids and too moronic for adults.The Good:Fassbender's was excellentThe Bad:Megan FoxContains one of the dumbest movie deaths of all timeThe whole thing is just so very bog standardThings I Learnt From This Movie:I want me some of those explosive crossbows!Megan Fox isn't entirely useless, just 98.5%
cinemajesty DC Comic movie adaptation of "Jonah Hex" is one mess of a movie. A production budget of 47 Million Dollar put down to lowest corner of a Warner Bros. lot dumpster. Screen writing pair Mark Neveldine & Brian Taylor gladly moved on as first-choice directors in favor for the movie "Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vegeance" (2011), which did not really improved the situation for the partially innovative directors of "Crank" (2006) on the emerging domination of Marvel comic book adaptations with "Iron Man" (2008-2013) and "Captain America" (2011-2016) as front-runners. They made room for director Jimmy Hayward, who had at no time the picture under control, even though the promising ensemble cast starting from Josh Brolin in the title-given role accompanied by actress Megan Fox, who together share probably the most entertaining moments in "Jonah Hex"; a movie that glorifies booze, whoring and any acts of violence in a Neo-Western scenario with PG-13 rating, received through the MPAA butcher shop and green-lit WB executives, which brought the running time down to 75 Minutes (excluding the end credits), not worth any box office ticket; to actors John Malkovich and Michael Fassbender as double-team nemesis of anti-hero "Jonah Hex", who clearly had fun with their role variations, yet at no time were pressured by the director to make this picture a 90 Minute thrill-ride with no cheap looking animated flash-forward fill-ins and clear cut hardcore R-rated showdown on an unless promising battleship destroyer location, missing any passion for the original graphic novel content, where the main character, a former confederate soldier of the U.S. civil war, revived my Native Americans, who has the gift of awakening the dead by touching their skin and delivering punchline as "Cut myself shaving.", on getting asked on his disfiguring facial scar origins before sending the questioner pistol-shot to hell.© 2017 Felix Alexander Dausend (Cinemajesty Entertainments LLC)
TonyMontana96 (Originally seen a few years ago) They say it's a comic book film, some call it a western, I call it an abomination. When you cast Megan Fox for sex appeal, you must also test her acting ability, for which is non existent, Megan Fox is appalling, she cannot act, and Josh Brolin, a respectable actor probably needed the money, as this is the worst thing he has ever done. As for Malkovich he yet again proves he is only in these worthless film's for the money and he is camp and dreadful here. Jonah Hex has horrendous writing, no story and incoherent, terribly edited action sequences as well, this is another film that I can without a doubt call, an abomination. 0/10
