Red Alert' is not boring but not hooked either: the charisma of its stars saves Netflix's most expensive movie so far

 'Red alert' will arrive on Netflix on November 12 - before it will be available in some cinemas starting this Friday - with the most expensive movie aura on the platform so far . With an estimated budget of about $ 200 million, it is a blockbuster that practically sells itself thanks to its starring trio.

The problem in some cases like this is that those in charge of the film trust that the stars are sufficient claim and do not bother to give them something interesting to work with. A bit that is what happens with 'Red Alert', but at least here one does not have time to be bored and it is appreciated how funny Gal Gadot is in her role as an art thief.

The contribution of its leading trio

With the previous mention I do not want to downplay Dwayne Johnson or Ryan Reynolds , but I do want to clarify that she is the one with the most freedom of action compared to the image she has projected in previous films. In fact, it is arguably the third in contention, as 'Red Alert' seems built to be a vehicle for Johnson and Reynolds show off. We already knew the chemistry they shared for their scenes together in 'Fast & Furious: Hobbs & Shaw' and here it is undeniable again.

And is that 'Red Alert' has much of the average movie of Johnson as an action hero and Reynolds as a sympathetic charlatan. There is no place for deception and it can be said that it gives what it promises, with the incentive that both dynamics alternate so that the fatigue effect is caused by the adventure itself that it proposes or by having seen them in similar roles in perhaps too many Sometimes, never finish owning the story.

That encourages Johnson to bring more conviction to the action scenes and Reynolds to make us laugh with the barrage of jokes he releases throughout the film - the funniest one is probably one at the expense of Vin Diesel-. That's where Gadot's sporadic appearances add spark to turn things upside down when the movie needs it so there's just more story to tell. In addition, you can see that he enjoys a more playful role , a feeling that he manages to convey to the public.

So what is wrong with 'Red Alert' if the two of them comply and complement each other, while she is a very effective destabilizing factor? Well, I'm very much afraid that everything else is closer to being a nondescript action movie with touches of adventure cinema than to a vibrant show that keeps you glued to the armchair -or the sofa at home-.

There it was already clear in advance that the presence behind the cameras of Rawson Marshall Thurber , Johnson's usual collaborator, did not invite optimism and what was seen on the screen ended up giving me the reason. As was the case in 'The Skyscraper' , he relies more than necessary on the assembly tricks to create an illusion of spectacularity and the result is quite vulgar.
