The meaningless title Black Lotus sums it up; John Wack would be more like it.

I disliked it because it was poorly made, the actors were stiff, and the sleazy story was annoying.

Rated: C-

This is a film without a single original story beat, but many viewers choosing to stream Black Lotus will likely judge it more on execution than on originality.

Rated: 2/5

Yet another movie that erroneously depicts Interpol "agents" as gun-toting elite cops. That's NOT what Interpol does.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

When the grand opening scene is about special forces soldier, ignoring direct order during a big hostage situation and opens fire, jumps over his cover and runs shooting towards the hostages & criminals.... saying "f... this". Then this movie lost ALL credibility. When then follow on stage is even worse acting and story telling. What a bad movie.

Rico Verhoeven must have really wanted to make a movie and someone with (a little bit of) money to spend must be a big fan of Rico Verhoeven in order for this trainwreck to be greenlit. Everything about this movie is bad and for an 'action movie', there is almost no action until the last 15 minutes and then (except for the Interpol lady - she actually tries to at least make it look exciting) it's veeeeeeerrrrryyyyyyy boring to watch.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars
