dangerous game the legacy murders review

Well, let me tell ya ’bout this movie, “Dangerous Game: The Legacy Murders.” I watched it last night, you know, after I finished feedin’ the chickens and all. It’s one of them thrillers, the kind where folks get knocked off left and right. Kept me up past my bedtime, that’s for sure!

The whole thing starts with this family, see? They’re all gathered ’cause the old man, the grandpa, he’s passed on. But he wasn’t no ordinary grandpa, no sir. He left behind this game, a “dangerous game,” they call it. It’s supposed to be some kind of treasure hunt or somethin’, but it ain’t no fun and games, let me tell ya. People start dyin’ real quick. Like, one minute they’re lookin’ for clues, the next they’re lyin’ on the floor, not movin’ a muscle.

• First, there’s this fella, real cocky-like. Thought he was smarter than everyone else. Well, he weren’t so smart after that trap sprung, was he?
• Then there’s this gal, pretty as a picture, but dumb as a post. She went wanderin’ off on her own, and wouldn’t ya know it, somethin’ bad happened to her too.
• And then there’s… well, you get the idea. Lots of folks, lots of dyin’. It was a real mess, I tell ya.

Now, the movie, it tries to be all clever and twisty. And I gotta say, some of them twists, they surprised me. Like, I thought for sure it was the butler who did it, you know, like in them old movies. But it weren’t him. It was… well, I ain’t gonna spoil it for ya. But let’s just say it was someone you wouldn’t expect.

But here’s the thing, and this is where I get kinda miffed. They don’t explain nothin’ real good. Like, why is this game even happenin’? Who set up all them traps? And why are these people so eager to play along when folks are droppin’ dead left and right? It’s like they ain’t got a lick of common sense. If I saw someone gettin’ killed, I’d be outta there faster than a greased pig on a hot summer day. I wouldn’t stick around for no game, no matter how much money was involved.

The blood and the violence? Oh, it’s there, alright. Plenty of it. Not for the faint of heart, that’s for sure. I had to cover my eyes a few times, I ain’t gonna lie. But it wasn’t the kind of scary that makes you jump out of your seat. It was more the kind that makes you go, “Ugh, that’s nasty.”

Overall, I’d say it’s one of them movies that’s okay to watch if you ain’t got nothin’ better to do. It’ll keep you entertained, I guess, but it ain’t gonna change your life or nothin’. It’s kinda like eatin’ a whole bag of chips – it tastes good while you’re doin’ it, but afterwards you feel kinda empty. You know what I mean? Like, it didn’t really fill you up. That’s how this movie felt to me. A whole lotta killin’, a few surprises, but not much else. Would I recommend it to my friends? Maybe. If they like that kinda thing. But I’d tell ‘em, don’t expect nothin’ fancy, just a lot of blood and some folks bein’ real dumb.

And another thing, it’s rated R, so don’t go lettin’ the little ones watch it. They’ll have nightmares for weeks. Heck, I might have nightmares myself, and I’ve seen a thing or two in my day, let me tell ya. Life on the farm ain’t always pretty, but it ain’t nothin’ like what them folks went through in that movie.

So, there you have it. My two cents on “Dangerous Game: The Legacy Murders.” Take it or leave it. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go check on them cows. They’re probably wonderin’ where I am.
