Rating Summary
Some movies are so bad that they're good, offering up a campy delightful of over the top characters and half-baked plots. G20 is vanilla bad. It begs the question, how could this trash have had three writers?

See the drinking game below.

In the action thriller G20, U.S. President Danielle Sutton, a former war hero, attends the G20 summit in Cape Town with her family. When terrorists, led by a vengeful mastermind, seize the summit and threaten global financial chaos using deepfake technology, Sutton evades capture and takes charge. Drawing on her military expertise, she fights to protect her loved ones, fellow world leaders, and global stability in a high-stakes battle against time and betrayal.

G20 Review

Cult classics like Soylent Green are quirky, over-the-top movies with bad writing and worse acting, but they somehow also possess that certain something that makes them enjoyable, not despite their flaws but because of them. G20 is not among these.

Instead, the Viola Davis-led disaster is a soulless slog of identity politics and flat drama, interspersed with random acts of the most mundane and unimaginative action. It offers neither fun and offbeat characters nor an over-the-top premise.

The talented Davis does her best to deliver meaningless and clichéd lines with undeserved gravitas. Ultimately failing under the weight of G20’s talentless writers– all three of them.

Helping nothing, Antony Starr goes full Kiwi. The New Zealand native, best known for playing Homelander in the Amazon Prime series The Boys, doesn’t shy away from his homespun accent, which is one of the least threatening on the planet.

With so little worthy of note (both positive and negative), I was left no choice but to create a drinking game to help G20 viewers make it through to the other side.

 

G20 DRINKING GAME

Sip
  • There’s a fist bump.
  • Racism or sexism is artificially alluded to or shoehorned into a scene.
  • Someone calls Viola Davis’s character “Madam President.”
Drink
  • Something or someone works in a way that absolutely couldn’t in real life. Examples: a car flips ten times, airbags don’t deploy, and everyone walks away fine.
  • Viola Davis shoots someone in the head.
  • Someone says something painfully cliché. Examples: “How dare you judge me,” “You don’t know what I’ve been through,” etc.
  • You’re struck by the fact that it took three people to write this.
Shoot
  • Viola Davis gets a hero pose.
  • The special effects look digital, fake, or unfinished.
Finish your drink
  • The movie tries to make a “big statement” and completely biffs it.
  • The credits roll, and you feel a mix of relief, confusion, and disbelief.

    Won’t be watching thanks to James.

    Sometimes I think you should get a raise just for having to watch this crap.

    Awesome review. I took one look at the woke propaganda from Netflix on this, and knew this is going to suck hard. thanks for confirming.
