Random Acts of Violence - Yay Netflix!

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

A self declared morally and intellectually superior asshole psychopath that hates everything named Malcolm (total coincidence :D ) decides New York was better when it was grimy and had more crime. So he goes on a murder spree that would make Jason Voorhees jealous to inspire others to also commit crime to bring back the "good old days".

The best part of that logic is that he's clearly English and too young to have lived through "the good old days".

This movie sucked. Malcolm is the most unlikeable and stupid character I've seen in a movie in years. Seriously Malcolm (our Malcolm), you should look into suing because this guy drags the name down. On top of his moronic logic and constant arrogant speeches he has one of those faces you just want to punch.

The stupidity doesn't end at his plan though. He has a totally unexplained film crew following him around. They do nothing to stop what he's doing, and don't react at all as he murders strangers, friends, etc.

His kills are all really well thought out and perfect crimes though, so there's no chance he gets caught. Just kidding. It's all completely random and he kills people everywhere and for any reason. He kills his best friend in his apartment for mocking his marinara. He kills strangers with guns everywhere without any sort of plan. He also drops his gun all the time because blah blah blah.

Do the cops get him? No. The end of the movie is ridiculously predictable.

Complete shit.

That explains a lot.

The smug arrogance. The most desirable female, per the script, being French. The complete ignorance of the plot.

Because I needed more reasons to hate the French...
