I have zero background with Bert Kreischer. I had never heard of him before this movie. But with the lack of comedy movies lately, I gave The Machine a chance. And I had a pretty good time with it.
It's pretty funny with an interesting premise. And for a comedy, it's a relatively well-made movie. It has a certain style to it and there are a bunch of cool transitions. And the fight scenes are shot surprisingly well, very clear and easy to follow.
My biggest downside with the movie is that the final act had the least laughs from me. It goes a little heavier on the action side. And while the fights are shot well, the hits are hardly convincing. You can tell they're just tapping the opponent. It almost feels like watching the actors rehearsing the choreography before filming it.
I enjoyed The Machine as a one-time-viewing type of movie. I would like to see Bert Kreischer in other movies with other popular comedians. (1 viewing, 6/20/2023)
