Cosmic sin5/19/2023 The one bizarre element that almost looms larger than anything else here, including the chintzy nature of the production, is the messaging that the world - nay, the universe! - needs war criminals. Plus, co-writer/producer Corey Large and Brandon Thomas Lee in roles that are supposed to have emotional connections to other characters, but none of that ever resonates.Ĭosmic Sin is so disjointed that it's hard to believe any of the sentiment it tries to muster. Perry (WWE's Lana), and Reign's Adelaide Kane. Outside of Grillo and Willis, Cosmic Sin touts Costas Mandylor (doing an English accent?), Riverdale's Lochlyn Munro (blink and you'll miss him), Entourage's Perrey Reeves, C.J. Cosmic Sin is a mess, and not even an entertaining one. And then even they themselves pop in and out of the movie, making you wonder where anyone is or why they've just been inexplicably axed from major action scenes. Grillo, of all people, vanishes almost halfway through the movie, leaving just the scattered remains of the cast to carry this awful project. So with Willis sleepwalking through this flick, one might assume Grillo would pick up the slack as the more active participant. Every so often his character, retired space general James Ford, chimes in with a line like "shut up" or "this is a bad idea," reacting to no one, while, on the flip side, the other actors play their scenes with a bald man, only seen from the back, who is probably not Willis. Willis, one of the world's most famous action stars, used to be a really animated and charismatic performer - and for whatever reason decided to stop trying after.2012's Looper, maybe? He has since done two dozen of these shoddy VOD actioners and basically Plan-9-from-Outer-Space's his way through the film, very obviously shooting many of his scenes on his own, with none of his co-stars present.
