The Union Netflix Movie Review

[@RobertParks-h7r]

The best thing about this is Halle Berry ages like fine wine.

[@epicon6]

Yeah but also i was feeling bad because she was grandma running at the beginning of the movie. I felt so bad they are making this beautiful old lady run

[@Desertfox201]

I'm just here for the bad Mark Wahlberg impression.

[@AustinBurke]

HEY EVERYBODY

[@mohdamerulaidilbinrazisahm7317]

If you asked me, this movie shouldn't be called The Union. It should be called Old Flame or Love & Danger. Because when I saw the title, I thought it was going to be about the organization but no. It's more about Halle Berry & Mark Wahlberg spy adventure

[@bucky716]

Hoped for some simple entertainment after a long Saturday and gave it a generous 4/10 since I finished it. It's bad bad, not bad good.

[@SerryJeinfeld]

Why can't they ever give Halle a normal hair cut for a movie anymore 😞

[@takethat863]

That's because she's gray so that blonde streak hides it

[@pralayaryan]

​@@takethat863 thats her personal hair care routine , it has nothing to do with the movie.

[@coolbreeze8193]

I think Netflix should’ve went the Marvel route and created a shared universe to liven up their more generic action movies. Imagine if the bad guy from The Union escaped only to get killed by Charlize Theron from The Old Guard! It would generate a bit of buzz around both films and encourage people to rewatch the film looking for cleverly placed Easter eggs.

[@jacquessowhat3680]

I started watching this movie three times. I made it to the part where he picks up the device. Brutal. I’m guessing both these actors had major house payments due.

[@jadapandy]

Wahlberg hasn't made a solid film in a while. Mediocre to plain bland. This looks and sounds quite boring. I knew this would suck.

[@gcolbyp]

Arthur the King earlier this year was actually pretty solid. Nothing amazing but it’s probably first good movie since Instant Family.

[@jadapandy]

@@gcolbyp Probably, but wasn't successful. I'm a huge dog lover, so I'll watch it when it's free. But I won't pay to see it, and apparently I'm in the majority in that.

[@gcolbyp]

@@jadapandyWell I’m guessing when you mean successful, you’re probably talking about it’s box office, and that’s not really judging the movie’s quality. Like it’s actually a pretty decent movie, even speaking as someone has a little dog myself and he’s solid in it. Again it’s not like one of the best of the year, but it does it’s job well.

[@DecentGamerJ]

Yeah he fell off

[@dm12e]

He has talent and even if 22 mile didn't make sence it was still coherent enough and had decent moment's and that's the area he could do best in tbh

[@gcolbyp]

Honestly I wasn’t really all that surprised by the reviews. Even by the trailer, I went: “Looks like another generic Netflix movie.” And I like both Wahlberg and Berry as actors, but filmography wise, both are hit or miss.

[@NinthShinigami]

At the end of the month, they’re putting The First Slam Dunk on the service. I totally recommend it to anyone and everyone, I would say it’s one of the best sports movies ever imo. It’s based on the Slam Dunk manga and anime and adapts the ending arc of the series, but it’s still perfectly enjoyable on its own, my friends saw it and loved it without ever seeing or reading Slam Dunk prior to that. It’s so so good, it was in my personal top 5 movies of last year 🔥

[@drewmcgill5290]

I saw it in theatre and thought it was nice looking but did not dig the movie whatsoever.

[@NinthShinigami]

@@drewmcgill5290 oke I respect that. I personally love it, I’d gladly have it among my favorite movies. The manga is one of my all time favorite anime/manga too so I have that love for the series to begin with and all of the previous arcs too. It was such a great theater experience for me too.

[@AustinBurke]

Very nice! Didn’t know that. I’ve been dying to see it. I’ll watch

[@NinthShinigami]

@@AustinBurke awesome! Very much look forward to your thoughts on it 🔥

[@nardinadeleon]

Watched this on Friday and I was waiting on your review. I agree fully with everything you said 😅 thanks for reviewing these Netflix movies!!!

[@DAVIDCAST-1998VIBEZ]

While the movie had some entertaining moments, it fell short of delivering a compelling narrative. The acting could have been more polished, and the overall quality of the film left something to be desired.

[@samsoknight7617]

Movie was terrible. The premiss was great and they couldv done some great things with it. Movie felt very forced. I dont care what anybody says i didnt see any chemistry between them. Directing was autrocious. Script was very dumb. Entire time it felt like i was having a de ja vu. Felt like i seen this movie b4. Which means they used a cookie cutter script writting on this movie. Hallie berry looked like she didnt know how to hold a gun properly even tho we know she did tactical training for john wick movies. So that just told me director had no idea what he was doing. Overall i gave it 2/10

[@thebrentrobinsonshow2882]

Halle Berry is still looking good👍.

[@MEGA1FILM]

He's totally hot

[@DuckGooze]

Bet you won't say that after taking the make up and enditing off.

[@paulkoval8258]

What a waste of 45 minutes on my Saturday night. That’s how far I made it in this movie then turned it off! Mark and Halle deserved better than this!!

[@Rascilon25]

I only get daily notifications for you and Dan Murrel as movie reviewers. It's a is perfect combination because he covers box office numbers, but seldom if ever reviews Netflix films. It would be awesome if you did a collab with him someday. I am glad that you do this and it sets you apart from other KZbin reviewers. Don't get me wrong, Disparu, Nerdrotic, the Critical Drinker and Mike Zeroh do occasionally cover Netflix material but mostly slam it rather than give it a proper review. Please keep up the good work. They are often too busy complaining about Disney than doing objective coverage of Netflix content. You fill a pretty unique niche so I hope you keep it up. I sadly had to unfollow Chris Stuckmann because once he became a film maker himself, he basically stopped reviewing movies objectively. If you saw a notification from him, you pretty much knew he was going to spend 5-7 minutes praising the movie.

[@AustinBurke]

I appreciate that! Thank you:) Love Dan!

[@TwistedReality13]

Dan Murrel.. now there's a joke 😂

[@pillsburryDoughFun]

Although the movie wasn’t great. Halle Berry is such a great individual. Is a good background movie or simple day type of movie.

[@AustinBurke]

Yeah Berry seems fantastic irl

[@lissaToday5787]

NO

[@mohdamerulaidilbinrazisahm7317]

It's pretty enjoyable movie except with the predictable plot reveal. I do enjoy their chemistry together though

[@AG_148]

One of things that I can appreciate is Jackie Earl Haley’s character; tonally, I can definitely see this guy working in his character’s position.

[@super.somarion]

Just wanna say shouts out to de OG austin burke n preciate da straight to da point review

[@FDR-ww6xz]

The script is kinda dumb.

[@dagg497]

My take on this Movie. The script was horrible! Every scene is loosly setup "...and then" stupid action scene one after another with zero character development. And worse than that, the dialogous makes no sense and are written by a 12year old TikTokker It seems 😅

[@RipleyE-we1hj]

The last good movie Mark Wahlberg starred in was Ridley Scott's, "All the Money in the World".

[@gcolbyp]

He did Instant Family the year after and that was actually a good movie. Hell even earlier this year, that dog movie he did, Arthur the King, was pretty decent.

[@BobBobbidi]

very unsurprised tbh

[@cjwise7741]

I do not put this lightly, this might be the worst movie I’ve seen in 10 years. I can usually find good bits in almost every movie, but this one was especially stupid. I’ve never seen so many clichés in one movie. I couldn’t believe they had the balls to try and set up a sequel. 2/10 just because I like the cast. Otherwise, it’s a 0/10 for me.

[@zikemdg]

We are so spoiled now.

[@sighannibal8326]

Couldn’t finish it

[@marvelinepierre1337]

Agreed. It wasn’t good.

[@TheOnlyJayen]

Heard it here first! Mike Colter was great in the bathroom..

[@Mr.Majestic77]

Let me guess. He gets killed off in the movie lol.

[@TheOnlyJayen]

@@Mr.Majestic77 no no, it’s an original Austin Burke quote

[@visiouslp]

Chick can't even run smh

[@anuph.3806]

let me guess, she is the tough as nails badass who is just so good and capable and did I mention badasss, and he is the bumbling imbecile who has to learn from her how to be a badass? is that it? I feel like this is the dynamic between men and women in every movie these days, nothing against the concept but it's a bit played out and boring today cus it's literally every friggin movie.

[@seanthemovieman7124]

Correct, and then the director came out and said he didn't want Walburgh or Berry to kiss in the film, [for a rom/com] I was out.

[@boredgrass]

"...These movies can exist..." I like that! >;-))

[@stevelanthripp5567]

It felt like a good straight to VHS movie in the 90s. I was entertained, but only needed to see it once. Not awful like Red Notice

[@enoclugo5679]

This movie was bad and what so surprised me was that they have so many good actors in the movie. terribly movie don't watch.

[@keeprisingmb]

It is 100% garbage !

[@elineman7]

Really didn’t seem like MW & HB had any chemistry. They tried so hard to be convincing but it fell flat. Was not a fan of the movie and called the ‘traitor’ of Union as soon as I saw the first five minutes. No surprises and way too long fake car chases. I forwarded through a lot of it.

[@megoins73]

I've never been first!!!!! Wow

[@ben07643]

good review i agree

whats up with the goofy spy flims, wassent expecting argyle from the kingsmen franchise (the ending was a mess). I didnt hate the union but its def not great

[@dm12e]

We need ABGO to drop The Gray Man 2 and Mission Impossible DR part 2, they seem to be the only active spy franchise that are decent

[@anuarcasanova6005]

I watch it while high and it was a fun way to burn 2 hours. Got to laugh a couple times but still a meh Netflix one.

[@Mr.Majestic77]

So the Black guy in this movie (played by Mike Colter) turns out the be a turncoat villian and is killed off lol. Halle Berry still must have a grudge against the "Brothers" lol.

[@khoohockleong7585]

What is Channelling? It goes one step further than mantra or teaching initiated. It is initiated so that you become a vessel if that particular God, you must possess certain attributes which the Guru tried to find out A free thousand dollars may be in order. Performing miracles is just like having the spirit channelled in you but one step down In the Christian tradition, Jesus channelled the Holy spirit to his disciples only after he resurrected from his crucifixion through Ascension to Heaven. Hinduism has no such constraints As you may have guessed, channelling involved the 9th house of the God's and the 11th house where you gain a pice of body from channelling that is dire t link from God. People with the 9thd 11th Lord's combined, even if they have no involvement with spirituality, tends to be like Superman or Superwoman

[@Anthonycheesman2024]

I liked the movie reminded me of old school 2000s action comedy when Hollywood still did those kind of things lol.

[@Bigred017]

It’s like a cookie cutter action movie that has scenes that have been in plenty of movies already, it has stupid cheap twists that make me roll my eyes. Not to mention how the movie just drags on so much I didn’t want to finish. I will admit I enjoyed the action and fighting at parts. But of course my opinion is subjective and should not stop you from watching the movie. Long story short, the movie’s plot is generic but you can still enjoy the movie.

[@paulroarke7895]

This movie is unwatchable nonsense, I tried for about 30 minutes. Zero chemistry between them and a silly story. Maybe the only time I've ever seen Berry in a movie where she has no sex appeal.

[@TheMusicGuy]

It had no real purpose, it felt rushed and forced. It was a waste of money.

[@Paul-ep2jy]

This was nearly unwatchable. I'm convinced this was written by AI. Generic and pointless

[@puspavelai8353]

So you are correct in every way this plot is written for...The 'problem' is when as reviewer, you 'see' everything😅- but, again, the production value is for the audience to just go with flow, unjudged in the background😉☺
