Inclubabu Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

Btexxamar I like Black Panther, but I didn't like this movie.

Calum Hutton It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

pjhoyles Other reviewers have described the story of this film, so I won't repeat. Suffice it to say, for me, all aspects of this film drew me in and the tension built up and the whole thing drew me into it. Our star, Avery (Zoe Bell) actually handled her camera and shooting quite well, aided by great photography by the movie cameraman and black and white freeze-frames to give us the pictures she took. This was charming. Then she takes posed pictures of the team that she is following and the flash goes off unexpectedly. This would not happen in real life, you would hear the flash charging whine first, but we will ride through this because it was important later on, that the flash should go off unexpectedly at a very bad time and so change the whole temperament of the film and the gnawing tension of a chase that followed. I kept wanting Avery (Bell) to strike some big moves in her fighting, but it became clear that she was true to her character, that she was really a photographer put in a life-or-death situation and had to fight the best way she could, and she had not trained secretly as some marshal-arts champ. Fine, she took an awful beating several times, but she came out the winner, however reluctantly she was forced to fight. The chases through the jungle were very well filmed and kept me on the edge of my seat. No joking, it must have been an incredible effort to actually film all of that in tropical jungle, mountains and rivers and waterfalls and still get exciting shots and angles that forced the action forward. Nacho Vigalondo as Guillermo, the leader of the group, was very believable and did not let us down as some debauched war monger but he gave us a stirring performance, a beautiful monologue and an understandable character who had to do what he had to do. On the other hand, I am still not sure how Alejo (Tenoch Huerta) could have come back from the dead in the last part of the film, not sure whether it was meant to all be in Avery's mind as a hallucination, or not, but it was exciting. On the whole, I felt this film was believable, exciting, dangerous, in glorious tropical jungle, well photographed and portrayed under what must have been difficult circumstances. All actors gave us believable characters. Great entertainment. What more can you want?

Dan Harden SPOILER ALERT, "Down in the Jungle where Nobody goes, there's a missionary leader slitting a boys throat..." Like the film I'm reviewing, that took a dark turn but at the same time it hopefully gained a reaction out of you. Camino is the story of award winning journalist Avery, played by Tarrantio's favourite stunt woman, Zoe Bell, as she battles both mind and body to survive in the Columbian Jungle, this follows after she initially takes on a photography job following a group of missionaries lead by an eccentric psychopath.Zoe Bell does a good job in this film bringing emotion to her role as well as pain that only a stunt person could make look so real. She is the star of this film and plays the tough bitch role pretty well. This film is like a vehicle in an attempt to push her into acting more than just Stunts.There are some rather well shot sequences such as the editing and use of black and white camera stills which should have been used more throughout the film. These short instances are what stood out to me but the overall amount of use isn't enough to make this film stand out over other films such as Peter Bergs Spoiler ridden title Lone Survivor for example. This film is a standard survival movie similar to, as my title suggests, the first Hunger Games movie, as, SPOILER ALERT, Katniss and Avery find themselves in similar situations.SPOILER ALERT, OK now I didn't get the Husband back story at all with this film. What was the point? Why was it relevant? Maybe the intention was to layer Avery's character and make her more relatable or likable, but it doesn't work because, even though Zoe Bell does a good job as the tough bitch, she isn't particularly likable. To me the Husband backstory and visions of him in the woods showed her going crazy and being in a bad way mentally buts still fighting for survival in her head as well as with her fists. If I'm right then I get it but still it never really goes anywhere in the film and still feels a little irrelevant due to its lack of resolution.One other moment which I completely didn't get was Alejo suddenly not being dead. I have no idea what happened but the first life Avery claimed all of a sudden was alive and well... Well until he got shot in the head by Guillermo. This moment made absolutely no sense and really just left me scratching my head as to wtf was going on.Overall, Camino is a standard survival film which acts as a vehicle for star Zoe Bell, and also has a couple of weird moments with questionable relevance. It's alright, nothing to really recommend or rave about. Watch the film if you are curious maybe, but all in all the film is OK and follows the survivor film formula. So if you like that then give it a watch.

Peter Pluymers "The spiral is death." I had no idea who Zoë Bell really was. Afterwards she appears to be a famous stunt woman who has repeatedly demonstrated her skills in Quentin Tarantino movies. It's not the first time she acted in a movie. You can admire her in "Oblivion" and also in "The hateful Eight". This time, however, she got the main part. Unfortunately her character is too one-dimensional to judge her on her acting talent. Substantively it's of the same level as a role played by Gina Carano. After seeing some impressive fight scenes I knew she's one hell of a stunt woman. Sadly enough these scenes were sometimes unrealistic, when you take her character into account.Avery (Zoe Bell) is a well-respected war photographer who, after receiving an award, is promptly planted on an aircraft by her editor. The destination is Columbia where she can make a photo shoot of a paramilitary group, led by the charismatic revolutionary Guillermo (Nacho Vigalondo). They act like local pharmacists in the Colombian jungles. In reality, Guillermo is nothing more than a crazy psychopath who's using this sacred mission as a cover up for his own criminal activities. When Avery makes some compromising photographs of a murderous Guillermo, he succeeds in convincing his crew that the foreign photographer is the culprit. And that's the beginning of a hunt through the jungle with Avery as a prey.Until the first encounter with one of Guillermo's freedom fighters, this film seemed promising. After the obligatory introduction, you will see beautiful images of the vast jungle. A wonderful mix of images of a subtropical jungle and stylistic black and white photographs. Even the sometimes exaggerated speeches of Guillermo were acceptable up to a certain level. But when Avery becomes a Rambo-like guerrilla fighter, who can defend herself excellent on unknown territory, the film lost a lot of credibility. I am sure Zoë Bell can stand her ground as a stunt woman. But when the person Avery, who's a grim war photographer, turns into a talented person who excels in close combat, knows how to use an automatic rifle and uses tactical combat strategies, that's a bridge too far. In reality, she wouldn't even survive her first clash with the lunatic Alejo (Tenoch Huerta).I was hoping this would be a brooding, exciting thriller. But in the end I only got to see a typical survival film. It made me think of "Predator" sometimes, but now without an alien. Guillermo's followers are being released one by one to hunt their victim. It's just waiting for the ultimate clash (with a ridiculous outcome) to present itself. The only downside about this taking place in the jungle, is the fact that it's mostly dark. This makes it sometimes really difficult to follow the action. The performances are proportionate to the level of the film itself. But I need to say there's one thing that really got my attention. The soundtrack. The musical accompaniment is usually not something I pay attention to, but this time I was surprised by the ominous music full of unusual sounds. Ominous during critical moments and mysterious in between. For me, the creator of this soundtrack is the true star of this movie.More reviews here : http://bit.ly/1KIdQMT

pahi58 I like Zoe so was more than willing to be entertained, but the Directors vision lets the story down. The lame 'introduction' for example; wft? Do yourself a favor and Fast Forward thru the first 10 minutes of 'Character development' because its a disaster and imho counter-productive and damaging to the film overall. Nothing in that first 10 minutes creates any empathy or positive connection to the character.Seriously,the first 10 minutes are a waste of time and would have been best left on the cutting room floor. The opening Credits begin at the 10:00minute mark, start there and the experience will be greatly improved.
