The Misfits are A-Team reject wannabes: we have Ringo/multiple characters [Nick Cannon] providing a voice-over/storyteller over his back story and then moving on to the other two main members  Wick [younger unknown/older Mike Angelo] and Violet [younger unknown/older Jamie Chung.] We also have another member by the name of Prince/multiple characters [Rami Jaber,] someone comes to them with a job to do [you'll find this out soon in the film, but as it is treated as a mystery I will play along,] but for these five people to pull this off they will need this mystery person's estranged father Richard Pace/multiple characters [Pierce Brosnan,] but Mr. Schultz [Tim Roth] is on their tail.

This film is roughly 94 minutes long, which is something you should keep in mind whilst we go through this review. The opening section is quick and lively, but we come to the point where Richard takes time to think about participating in this job from here until the 49th minute this film really does hit the stamina wall and even after the 49th minute it never recovers, because as I have just referenced the lively nature has disappeared, not a lot has happened in the film, I even said to the person I watched this film looking at the time that was remaining of this film "I said we are at the 49th minute and this is going to be a quick wrap-up isn't it." Which I am paraphrasing here with basically yes.

My interest in this film really did check out soon after this; yes throughout this film there is good artistic vision for an example this aquarium seen some of our characters meet up in this location to discuss things and later on we have this few bits of action an excellent explosion and excellent vehicle chasing sequence, but we have Ringo and Prince discussing music and then what I have on the radio with these short-term hostages participating a little bit in this sequence by physical indications, the music chosen becomes the background music; yes I did laugh at this, but not for positive reasons. I mean they had this very good positive asset to this project and don't get me wrong it is still a positive asset, but the reason I laughed is more out of "Why did they have to cheapen this sequence with this really cheap comedy element?"[Full disclosure I think I laughed for a second at the vomiting sequence earlier on at some point.] I mean I can split down the good comedy from the cheap comedy for you anything started by Richard or Mr. Schultz is really good as it fits in with the film and for the rest why bother; it really well and truly cheapens the film.

Character developments and performances; the character developments [putting the comedy to one side] are safe and reliable versions of what they are meant to be. The performances and once again away from the cheap comedy content are mostly likewise safe and reliable they are what they are. But for me there are two that are consistently from beginning to end or when they are on screen all round good performances and they would be Brosnan and Roth.

This film receives: 2/10, this film is poor: yes I know there are some positives to this film, but this mark represents even though with these positives this is how poor this film is and yes this film has some negative awards accredited to its name 3 Nominees Razzie Awards 2022 Razzie Awards; Worst Supporting Actor Nick Cannon, Worst Director Renny Harlin and Worst Screenplay Kurt Wimmer Robert Henny, but let's try and finish this review on a positive if they're ready fans of Brosnan or Roth out there are in Internet land, take a look at this film but I really wouldn't expect too much.
