Box Office Flop or Blockbuster 2020? - Bloodshot


Ok this review may be my last in the cinema experience due to social distancing and new rules placed upon Australian citizens from a government who has no idea what is going on.

So Is Bloodshot a Box Office Flop or Blockbuster? Ok this is easy, it's a flop, not only due to the virus, but it's not really a good film.

Vin Diesel might have got his last big pay day before all major studios shut down.



Guy Pearce also stars in this film, however even his Aussie charm can't save this dodgy action film.

So what is the future for cinemas in Australia? Will they even be open next week? Here is a complete update of all the films being delayed, along with all the TV shows on hold due to the crisis.

UPDATE - Coronavirus TV/Film list

With hardly any new films coming out in Australia, Palace Cinemas closing all branches, it's a tough time.

My local Hoyts today had minimal staff on. Meaning staff are losing shifts, people are not getting paid. With movies doing average business right now, some countries/cities/states in complete lockdown has streaming finally made the cinema experience null and void?

I love the movies (even seeing a shit film like Bloodshot is enjoyable) I love the feeling of the movie kicking off, the sound, the smell of popcorn, it's just ace.

Will this Coronavirus change everything? To all my friends in the arts, I am sorry, this is rough AF. To all the uni/school students who are working at cinemas, I'm sorry. It's hard to catch a break at the moment, it's hard to stay focused, but we can do this.

Sorry Bloodshot but this was average, so I have to be honest. 2 stars.
