Hardcore Henry

> A video game that you won't play, but watch! The entire story was told from the Henry's perspective, I mean what he sees through his eyes are the visuals we get. The first person point of view. Like the video games, but you won't play, just sit back and watch it. So you won't see the Henry's face, because he's you and you won't utter a word.

I can understand how these things would turn some people off, and I'm not going to sit here and tell you _Hardcore Henry_ should take home the Osc

Fantastic watch, will watch again, and highly recommend. This is one of the most unique and interesting sci-fi action movies I've ever seen. Doing the entire movie from first person perspective is an amazing feat all on its own. If you watch carefully, then the cuts are really subtle if they even exist in places where you would expect them to be. There are a few points of lost consciousness, but those are the more obvious ones. Because it is a "First Person" movie, Andrei Dementiev literally carries the movie through the camera, but Sharlto Copley ("District 9") is the repeating character that helps drive most of the movie, so he would be the traditional carrier, as opposed to the mute camera. Danila Kozlovsky and Haley Bennett give great supporting roles as well. The problem
