A cybernetically enhanced soldier must rescue his wife from a maniacal villain in this frantic action movie that takes place entirely from a first-person perspective. Directed by Ilya Naishuller, HARDCORE made its world premiere at the 2015 Toronto International Film Festival., A recently resurrected soldier named Henry must rescue his wife (Haley Bennett) from a maniacal villain in this action movie that takes place entirely from a first-person perspective. Henry has been scientifically engineered into a superpowered warrior, and a ruthless criminal gang want to get their hands on the technology embedded in his body. With the help of gruff fellow soldier Jimmy (Sharlto Copley), Henry fights back. Ilya Naishuller wrote and directed this shoot-'em-up thriller.
"HARDCORE HENRY is like a good roller-coaster in that it does not require a complex reason to be: it's there, it's fun, you ride it, and that's about it."
RogerEbert.com - Simon Abrams (04/08/2016) "An experiential grenade tossed into the action genre, HARDCORE HENRY locks you in to 90 minutes of first-person mayhem..." Los Angeles Times - Robert Abele (04/07/2016) "There's no denying the visual wizardry of first-time feature director Ilya Naishuller who expanded the film from one of the music videos he cooked up for his rock band Biting Elbows." Rolling Stone - Peter Travers (04/07/2016) |
