. He can also be a generic action star with a gravelly voice and a contract that requires him to be in a tank top for at least 70% of the movie. And so arrives the obligatory “Bloodshot,” an adaptation of the Valiant Comics character of the same name, directed by video game auteur David S.F. Wilson in his big screen debut, with a script by Jeff Wadlow and Eric Heisserer.
“Bloodshot” begins in a very expected way for this kind of thing. After a violent hostage extraction in Kenya, special ops soldier Ray Garrison retires to the Amalfi Coast for some R&R with a comely blonde, Gina , apparently his wife. Before long they’re picked up by some “psycho killer” who menacingly dances to the Talking Heads in a meat locker while demanding to know some information about Ray’s mission.
With a bloodstream full of microscopic machinated mites to rebuild his body in combat, Ray is RoboCop with the self-regenerating power of the. But his all-too-human memories of murder and mayhem mean he’s hell-bent on revenge. You know how they say trauma is stored in the body? Ray’s trauma still lives somewhere in his cells, even after he’s Frankensteined back to life by the charming technologist with a robot arm, Dr. Harting .
This is a supremely silly Diesel vehicle, allowing the earnest action star to deliver lines such as “You used me … to kill,” with the utmost seriousness. But the writers are also clever enough about the genre tropes to poke fun at them. Visually, there are some neat moments with the “nanites” in Ray’s veins, though there are times when the movie feels like watching visual effects artists lay down half-rendered pre-visualizations, which is kind of the point.
I have watched half the movie so far, and it's quite don't expect reality-like scenes in a sci-fi film.
The only good thing he did in he’s career is the fast and furious franchise...yeah and playing a tree in marvel
