Pain & Gain Reviews
I found this movie quite interesting for most of these actors. It gives storytelling to a crime, and it shines light on something that most rarely talk about. I thought the way that Mark Whalberg's character acts was very cool and I loved the character. It definitely had some holes, but the movie was satisfactory.
Very entertaining flick. Spectacular. The rocks best acting
The problem with this slapstick comedy is that the actual story is anything but. This gang were a violent and despicable bunch, which is why two of them were sentenced to death. I mean, it's entertaining and comical enough, but maybe it shouldn't be.
This was genuinely top 3 movies for me. This is funny, motivational, and entertaining. This is definitely a must watch.
It is traumatic but teaches a life lesson that crime doesn't pay but is sad that 2 men died at the end
Having read a little bit about the true story, I think this movie is insensitive and cruel to the true victims. I can only say that I hope that the real individual who was tormented and tortured by this brutal gang wins in court in his lawsuit. His story was used without his permission and he was portrayed to be and unpleasant, crude and greedy man who deserved to be punished. He has not been compensated even though his story was used to make this movie. From what I've read of the actual criminals, there was nothing humorous or likeable about them. They are horrible, sadistic human beings. As for the movie alone, it just doesn't make sense. The personalities of the criminals don't match the crime. I couldn't finish it.
This is Bay's best movie by far and the all of the negative reviews are from people with non-valid arguments that have a preexisting bias against him. This movie is a exaggerated representation/critique of the ideal American Dream; and the performances by the main three are awesome, specially Wahlberg's.
This is a really entertaining movie which does get better with repeat viewings. In terms of perfromance this is the rocks best performance and him and the monk actor steal the show.
filled my expectation keep going!!
The film's visuals became real
The idea behind this movie moved me a lot, but it was a movie with really satisfying expectations
This movie seemed like a romantic adventure movie. He was discouraged by repeated failures, and one day they took away all his assets and took their money back. It turned out to be a really crazy movie
Michael Bay should been given the keys to Hollywood after this masterpiece. RIP Wahlberg I miss that guy in movies, an actual impressive, awesome, and layered performance by The Rock.
However did this stinker of a movie get made. Uncomfortable situations, poor acting, weak plot.
Sad story with characters that are at times uncomfortably likable.
The film portrays the characters at times in a very idiotic way, what can save it is the charisma of the actors and scenes that are quite comical, however the film goes on doing the same thing which ends up making it a bit disgusting.
Filme legal pra caralho, o roteiro é legal, o filme mostra coisas de musculação, a história do fiome foi boa junto com as cenas do filme, como a cena que os 3 caras sequestraram o Victor que é um milionário, depois de tirar todo o dinheiro dele e ainda quase mataram ele, por sorte ele sobreviveu, e outra cena boa foi o the rock fritar em uma mini churrasqueira pedaços de corpos na rua, depois eles foram presos, Lugo e doorbal pegaram mais tempo de cadeia, doyle(the rock) falou tudo e com ajuda de Victor e doyle pegou menos tempo de cadeia, com tudo isso, eu recomendo esse filme, vale a pena assistir.
It's a very dynamic and entertaining movie, there's always something happening. P&G has lots of dark humor, vulgar dialogues and scenes. All in all it was nice to watch
This movie is awesome. Extremely funny, very entertaining, unbelievable story.
I enjoyed the oldish oldie type or style of narration! Some of the plot points are pretty dark, though, viewers beware... Overall about on par with what everyone else rated this movie at about half likability
