Rogue isn’t offering nature-documentary realism, but director MJ Bassett is a former wildlife presenter whose interest in the South African grassland goes beyond mere backdrop.
Highly underrated movie.I enjoyed this one.Megan fox did decent acting.Location direction background score dialogues are ok.Story could be a bit better but I think director Michael J. Bassett was able to give us the message he wanted to throughout this film.
So there is a FOOL in this section who had the gall to unironically suggest that casting Megan Fox in this role is somehow associated with #MeToo and political correctness. For that ridiculous argument to even be in the realm of possibly making sense, guess what? They would have had to cast someone who DOESN'T look like Megan Fox. The fact that she's even headlining this is the exact opposite--catering to sexists exactly like THAT guy.
Rouge – No-one Could Possibly Release This, It Must Have Escaped!
Some good action effects and pyrotechnics are displayed in this otherwise abysmally awful movie. Here we have a typical ‘MeTo’/ PC take on casting, with Megan Fox playing the ‘fearsome’ leader of a bunch of Ultra-Vicious male mercenaries in Africa – you instantly know what’s coming after this silly box is ticked. The director/writer/co-producer, her daughter, and all the producers should rightly be ashamed of themselves, and perhaps consider hanging up their careers after this shockingly bad work. Be warned, M’s M.J. Bassett’s script is an affront to human intelligence, offering endless over-the-top, simple simon swear-fest dialogue - peppered with ludicrously nasty brutality of the most repugnant kind – all aimed at hooking those moronic enough to allow this human bilge into their minds. In her attempt to excuse some of the acute ugliness, Bassett has added a written end-credit plea to stop the caging and killing of African Loins – so, why not make a heart-felt doco instead of going after South African Government money, to finance vulgar on-screen material of such low-caliber? This certainly will not help the South African movie industry - with viewers running a mile when their participation is noticed in future ventures. You’ll do more to save Animals by keeping this cancerous material out of your brain. Foxtel, etc, should be ashamed of abusing the world and its viewers by exhibiting it.
