    BloodSHIT more like.

    This was on Sky Movies, which I left playing in the background earlier,
    whilst busy doing other stuff.

    Vin Diesel is a soldier, killed during a battle, only to be ressurected
    as a super soldier, with super human strength and healing abilities, by
    some secret group of scientists who wish to use him for nefarious purposes.

    Essentially, Universal Soldier meets Marvel, with a bit of the Borg from
    Star Trek thrown in. Couple of good action scenes, but also overblown
    use of CGI to create some ridiculously overblown fight scenes.

    Apparently this was based on a comic book character from Valiant comics
    and was an attempt to start up a rival super-hero franchise to Marvel
    and DC. But isn't all that good and due to its release coinciding with
    the various Covid lockdowns that caused cinemas to shut down, bombed big
    time.

    In short, don't bother!

    i felt the same way. felt too much like trying to start a franchise
    which i think will probably never come.

    Yup, just another overblown CGI cartoon with nothing worth caring about.
