My Review:
Letting my mum choose the movie for us to watch she took a look on Netflix and decided to put on He Never Died. This film although sounding familiar to me I couldn't place and found myself really liking this movie.
The film is about a man named Jack who seems to do nothing all day until his daughter arrives at his door and everything changes as mobsters try to kill him. However, nothing is as it seems about Jack!
I thought that this was good at showing a man who feels like he has given up with the world and how he stays to himself till he is forced to do otherwise. With the addition of his daughter you could see that he was starting to change a little and how this was effecting him as a person. However, when the mobsters come after him and the watcher is able to see how he has a craving for blood and that is why he is staying away from the other people to keep away from the temptation of killing them. I thought that the fighting scenes within this was also really good and showed how strong Jack was and how he was more of an assassin than people thought especially as he is unable to die. The acting throughout this I felt was really good and it seemed to fit the actors extremely well making me surprised when the film was over thinking it had only been around half an hour which is something in which I like in a movie.
I did feel like there should have been more about the guy in the black hat though which seemed to be death who was following him but gave no indication as to why he would be. I also got rather confused as to who Jack was meant to be. With having been meant to be Kane from the bible but then saying he was a vampire I got rather confused especially with what seemed to be wing marks on his back which you see at the beginning of the movie.
Overall, I would recommend He Never Died to people who are looking for a more real fantasy movie and one that has a lot of action within it. This was a surprise to me and a film I would see again.
My Rating: 4/5
