Samaritan was a really good movie. The plot twist was kinda visible about twenty minutes into the movie yet the confirmation was very satisfying. It really does answer that age old comic fan question what happens if Joker kills Batman or Luthor kills Superman.
I knew it right away as well. I did notice my family, who isn't into comics or stories like I am didn't see it coming. Good stories have disappeared. Everything is a repeat of a repeat , so something like this was a great change. What's crazy, is the reflection of the real world shines through. Every man I know used to be what wouldn't have been consideredaw abiding guys, is now strong protectors of their homes and way if life. Right now it's 35-45 having all the common sense and strength, while backed by their elders remi ding them of what things should be. The world is a mess, we need old heros to stand again, even old former bad guys need to stand, as one
I think this could have done better as a series which would have allowed for more depth. But I did love how it was revealed that Joe was nemesis showing he changed after seeing his brother died he decided to live in the shadows trying to guide people away from relying on genetic freaks even acting as a moral guide fir a child
I haven't seen it, but that plot twist he describes that occurs near the end, with Joe revealing himself to be Nemesis is pretty impressive. Films rarely pull such extreme plot twists like that. Brilliant.
@@joshuagraham2843 Yeah true, there's others Riddick is another. Harley I feel is kind of a wild card at times, but I see what you mean. I would say Injustice's universe version of Harley is more heroic than the mainstream universe which is more grey and can be both good and bad at times.
This movie was amazing! And yes, the storyline was terrific, better than most of the superhero storylines that are out now. The acting was great and we didn't have to sit through 30-45 minutes of an origin story. What is there not to like? Not only does it leave room for a sequel, but also prequels.
@@stephanie-yu4ng not even that. The beginning always seems too hurried to me. The brawl in which the youngster punched. Man, that transition was quite fluid. They most likely increased the power output and added some sound effects beyond what a 13-year-old child can handle. also the beginning. I sincerely hoped the youngster didn't merely stumble across him. Instead, he was seen searching for a Samaritan. However, they enjoy moving quickly. Now that we are aware of Samaritan, the youngster is capable of combat. There is seldom any bullying and then suddenly we get involved. Nemesis storyline twist results in the death of the villain. He doesn't get enough screen time or background. So the villain seemed too bland. Kid needs training arc. Samaritan+Nemesis arc. Searching for Samaritan (including the novel writer). And finally Villain backstory. That could be 3 movies. Even just showing the kid training before. Did he say something about boxing? Anyway, we don't need all action. Even that fixing old trash made him more human I just wanted to see stuff like that.
The movie was really pretty fun for what it was. I will admit, I didn't see the twist identity of Stallions character in the end. I feel sort of dumb for not realizing it from all the hints that were dropped earlier in the film. But it was cool to me. I rather enjoyed the action and the acting. Pretty solid flick. Hopefully it comes to dvd or bluray so more folks can get a chance to check it out :)
Loved this super hero movie primarily due to the fact that Nemesis was no longer the angry person he once was. His goal had been completed. He had defeated his brother. Yet, he found nothing but emptiness and thusly laid Nemesis to rest forever only to become the new Samaritan
Aye, reminds me of Kratos from the god of war series. Old games was all about vengeance and rage that he carried. He achieved his goal and killed all the Greek gods...only to find out that didn't get rid of the anger and hate that was in his heart. Newer games is all about redemption and trying to to steer his son away from his mistakes when he was younger.
I actually paused the movie right after the opening animation & said to my wife “you wanna know what I think the plot twist is?” That said, I could see a sequel with Nemesis as the hero & Samaritan returning as the villain now that his brother is viewed the hero.
Idea for a sequel: Time jump 8-10 years and Sam is in trouble. Joe gets wind of it through the news and travels from wherever he disappeared to to help. Sam has been training to be a hero like Joe for years now and despite Joe not wanting him involved in what he has to do he dives in anyway because he never listens. They stop the threat and spare Sam of whatever fate (TBD) would've befallen him and Joe reluctantly agrees to train him further and gear him up to be the new Samaritan.
@@CloudyShinobi Notice I said "...gear him up...". Joe knows how to fix and build things. He made the hammer so why not a suit of protective strength enhancing armor? Pretty sure he had to have met some even more tech savvy people than himself in the past that could help if he can't build it himself.
I'm hoping for more of a prequel to answer some questions & fill in some backstory. For example, how did Samariten & Nemesis get to be so freakishly strong & durable to begin with? The movie only offers a minimal clue with Stalone - 'old man' Samaritan (aka 'old man' Nemesis) describing him & his brother as; "genetic freaks" to the kid, during a conversation in one scene. There's got to be more to the backstory than that. The 'genetic freaks' element might suggest something that, at least one of their parents went through or had. Or even something in the bloodline - going back centuries. That could bring up the possibility of their ancestors being the basis for the old myths & legends from many ancient cultures about Gods, given that in many myths from those cultures, about Gods, the gods themselves are, usually, immensely strong, physically). If that's the genetic trait that they inherited, it would explain their physical strength - as 1 such possibility. But I'm sure Hollywood could flesh out something like that, or some other explanation far better...
It wasn't epic or grand as a superhero movie but it was more in line with The Shadow or Phantom on a limited budget but it got me hooked, with the hammer made from Nemesis I wondered if there is a more supernatural side their abilities, I'd hoped that more lore and history between the twins could be better explored with that guy conspiracy theorist writer, the family etc.
i read a comic book once, Batman died and the Joker, without purpose, becomes a DA and then a Politician who actually was effective fighting crime, due to his supervillain background origins.. until his old age and dying, he really wants to meet Batman and continue to fight him.. Joker became a good guy in honor of his fallen arch nemesis, Batman.
I see Nemesis as being more of a mix of Lex Luther and Doctor Doom character types. I don't think he was a villain but more of a lethal protector/misguided vigilante because grief can lead you down a dark path since their parents were killed by the so called law of granite city. I honestly would rather see a origin story with Stallone acting as narrator (animated or live action) to help concrete the lore better, before they make a sequel to Samaritan.
Maybe Samaritan exists in the same world as Hancock? There's room, and the Lore in Hancock stated "there were others, but they're all gone." If the World believed Samaritan and Nemesis were dead, then they'd "be gone." With Hancock's amnesia, he might recognize the name Samaritan and investigate.
I’d believe that for one reason ,with all the stuff they survived how did an explosion and a fall kill Samaritan unless them being close was making them weaker?
@@Unknown69846 If Samaritan's powers were the same as Nemesis, then the fall + the fire was too much damage for his body to handle with no water around. He fell a pretty far distance directly into an inferno. You saw how bad it was for Nemesis after just fighting a bunch of bad guys and being around fire.
It's a good idea but it would have to be tweaked, as Hancock and Mary have been around since ancient times and were though to be angels. Also their powers work differently and they are on extremely different levels.
I liked the fact that this movie did not push for any political or social bullc**p that we see in superhero films nowadays. This is a very good movie because of its simplicity.
It's hilarious to me when people say what u said. So u didn't see or get any political or social justice rethoric in the comics??? U must not have read them. Not one comic around doesn't allude to politics and social settings and justice. Not one! From DC to marvel to the smaller jawns, every comic ever has dealt on some level with politics and social reform. Everyone. So y wouldn't it be in the movies. Are u serious. Like people want to run away from society and politics all day and then wonder why it's broken and corrupt. It's the job of comics to give fantasy but also challenge the status quo thru a fantastical lense. The xmen represent black people during the 60s. Batman is always fighting corrupt politics and underground mafia. Superman fights for truth justice and the American way. Like 😆 stop with the stupid I don't want the real world in my comic movies when it's a staple in the writings. Go somewhere.
@@randybarnes4440 I will make it simple for you because you obviously did not see my argument. The movie is well-made in the sense that is we do not see any ridiculous Woke nonsense in this film. I do not see any homosexual nonsense, misdirected racism, and feminist ideals. I applaud the movie in actually focusing on telling a story rather than pushing some nonsense political agenda. Of course poverty issues are there, family issues, morality - which are all I given and I respect that.
!! Yes!! I agree, that’s why this movie is so awesome. It made you feel like it didn’t matter what was going on in the rest of the world, it was all about one city, what’s goin on in your city? Maybe we all need to focus our attention a little, worry about makin the right choices instead of things out there that we cannot see or control.
I got the same impression from the advertisement. Sylvester Stallone is better suited as a villian or an anti hero. If your movie needs a goody two shoes hero like superman. You don't cast Stallone as the hero of the film.
I was debating whether or not to watch this movie but your video steered me in the right direction. I’ll definitely be watching it this weekend, thanks!!!
i loved the movie. I loved the action also. It would have been better if Cyrus was related to Joe/Nemesis somehow. I would also love to see Joe's Brother come back in a sequel. Maybe Joe's brother survived but figured the only way to stop Nemesis was to disappear and stop fighting him. They could make it as Joe starts doing superhero work as Samaritan, his brother starts to take note. But when Joe starts battling another superpowered gang Joe's brother is force to come back and save him. Then they work together to and save the day. Anyway i hope he does make a sequel.
Now we need a prequel to this movie, to see, how both Samaritan and Nemesis became who they are now. And then the sequel, cause i really enjoyed this movie and i wanted more.
If you want to be entertained it did that for me with no agenda’s push. I think it did enough for a possible sequel in a storyline that delves deeper into the character. A big thumbs up from me 👍
Thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Cannot believe Sly didn't release this for the box office but glad he didn't since I was able to watch it on Prime. lol :)
Near the end I thought he was because out of nowhere it seemed like he was showing signs of having super strength, he was tanking hits from Joe, knocking him around like a ragdoll and he picked Sam up with one arm which is extremely hard to do since 13 year olds are not light enough to pick up one handed
@@TonyJaaFan1587 I was actually thinking he was going to turn out to be Samaritan's son and angry how the city went after his death and he blames everyone and the system for being thankless and now understood why Nemesis did what he was doing....i thought that would have been a good twist Uncle vs Nephew.
Well part of the situation is that it never actually shows his brother actually died. It just shows him falling into fire, it could his brother survived
I loved this movie. Stallone acted well, I did not see the twist, because it wasn't big until...no wait you guys got the wrong brother, you should have packed a banquet. Brought waaaaaaaaaaaaaay more friends.
The plot was a bit messy. It feels like they skipped several parts to get a faster pacing, but it also results in the characters changing their minds really fast during arguments. I really liked the twist during the final fight though. Never saw it coming, and it made the final act much better for me.
I liked it but I worked out the plot and reveal in the first 20 seconds of the movie when it showed the background to the story in the form of an animation.
The movie was OK. What frustrated me was it was alluded throughout the whole movie that the power plant deal was a diversion of some sort.. but never explains what the real plan was.
@@ojmcclanahan689 what was the explanation. The lack of explanation on anything was was stopped the movie from being good to me, why the bad guy decided to be good and why he was at the power plant to begin with if it wasn't just a 'imma blow up the plant, yo"
I think if they would have done a second twist in which the boy's mother was actually Joe's daughter and the boy is his grandson, and his grandson grows up to be a new Samaritan
Possible spoiler for video, so placing below lines. - - - - - This movie is similar to something done in the MMO City of Heroes, and a later game, the MoBA MXM (Master X Master). The lead hero from City of Heroes, Statesman, was killed, leading the world into a slump of increased crime and hopelessness, even as the heroes struggled to step in for him. In MXM, they replaced him with his evil alternate counterpart from the Praetorian dimension, Tyrant, who had a change of heart after Statesman's death, and took over his mantle to become the new Statesman, and hero of earth, in his honor.
I liked the movie. That twist was definitely something. It makes a lot more sense seeing Joe kill some people. Since I don’t think the real Samaritan took lives.
Watched the movie 2-3 nights ago .. I didnt nessicarly pick up on the swerve .. so i got it when it came out in the movie. This was a very good movie that wouldnt have done well in the theater but would have been fine as a paid direct to release.
Idea 4 'a sequel ': Sly Stallone's character is dying... and he meets up with a very fallen and broken ex-cop who's fatally wounded while saving a family from a burning house; Sly's character 'Nemesis',in order to save the ex-cop's life, injects him with his OWN blood,this the ex-cop now has superpowers just like 'Nemesis'.... and slowly begins training to take over as the 🆕 'Nemesis'. But first, the ex-cop must clear his name of the same crime that he didn't actually commit. But who? How? Why??!

I don't think Joker would fell remorseful about killing Batman tho and he won't kill Batman because he doesn't want to anyway.
As a fellow Aaron, I disagree. This film is quite bad.
@@aaronsharp7641 it had potential tho the twist was probably the best part of the movie just needed some better acting and budget
Killing his brother makes a bigger impact and causes Nemesis to retire

Why you lying
I just realized Sylvester Stallone was the age I am now when I was born. He did age pretty good. I forget he's over 70.
he uses alot of gene therapy/male testosterone treatments to help is why. :)
He uses stem cell supplements
So the Super-Villain becomes a Super-Hero, what a twist
Bruh this man is 76.....you can barely tell!!! That boy Sly a legend!!!!
Sly Stallone as a superhero? Cool.

The biggest foreshadowing moment in this movie, was when the boy tagged the Samaritan symbol over the Nemesis symbol.
Yoh I just finished watching this lol, it was amazing
best Sly movie i've seen in years
This is a great super hero movie. I really have no complaints.
Thanks for the plot summary. Wasn't interested enough to watch the movie, so I watched some clips instead before hopping on this.

It was the decision from AMAZON, not Stallone.
Either way you could've watched it on Prime lmfao
MGM made during 2020 in the heights of the pandemic. It was intended for the theaters. Amazon bought MGM.
Very grounded and enjoyable! Kinda reminds me of the pulp heroes. Worth a watch

That's actually a good point you are making here, probably not even intending.
Could be, I thought it was because he killed his brother
It was a good movie. Not something that would blow your mind, but i liked it.

Ilove the single mom "The nerve of this guy! Locking me and my son out" 😆 Very cool movie for the weekend. I mean, c'mon. Who doesn't like Stallone?

Had the feel of an 80s style Stallone action movie! I was trying to figure out where it was filmed. I'm guessing Portland..
Yeah. This was pretty good.
.
The movie was all right. But this my friend, it's not an origin story. This is a synopsis of the movie itself.
Predictable bit great movie
Thank you so much 😊
Cyrus lol all I could see was Euron Greyjoy lmfao "I killed Jamie fooking Lanister" " I killed the Kingslayer"
nemesis as never bad it as just the path he took.
The movie was OK.
What frustrated me was it was alluded throughout the whole movie that the power plant deal was a diversion of some sort.. but never explains what the real plan was.
Pity. I wish it could have been better. Will still sail the seven seas to watch it.
Might want to watch it again, htennek1. They definitely explained it.
@@ojmcclanahan689 what was the explanation. The lack of explanation on anything was was stopped the movie from being good to me, why the bad guy decided to be good and why he was at the power plant to begin with if it wasn't just a 'imma blow up the plant, yo"
It was just a trap for Samaritan, Nemisis didn’t care about taking out the city, he just wanted to kill Samaritan.
@@evanabbott2737 That would be an answer if the movie hadn't said the two had fought numerous times already.
It is cool and entertaining movie 😎👍
They can also do a Pre-Sequel tell how they got the powers to lead up this one. They also do few more twist in the Pre-Sequel
I just saw Samaritan it was pretty good
Now there has to be a sequel where Samaritan survived that fall, and planned his revenge on Nemesis ultimately making him the new nemesis
Lived this .. awesome
I think if they would have done a second twist in which the boy's mother was actually Joe's daughter and the boy is his grandson, and his grandson grows up to be a new Samaritan
@@samphadhavihara4035 ya I agree that could work as well
Absolutely GREAT movie
Just watched it yesterday. Good movie, the fights were awesome. Wish they explained his powers more in depth though.
It’s certainly good and has a great twist at the end 😏

This movie is similar to something done in the MMO City of Heroes, and a later game, the MoBA MXM (Master X Master). The lead hero from City of Heroes, Statesman, was killed, leading the world into a slump of increased crime and hopelessness, even as the heroes struggled to step in for him. In MXM, they replaced him with his evil alternate counterpart from the Praetorian dimension, Tyrant, who had a change of heart after Statesman's death, and took over his mantle to become the new Statesman, and hero of earth, in his honor.
“Fictional town of Granite City”
-grew up in Granite City Illinois, a town with a steel mill that matches the industrial vibe of the movie
Haven't seen the movie not to familiar with his origins but I'm finding out
I thought the librarian was going to be the brother. By the end. Standing In the crowd proud his brother did good .
Could have worked 🤷🏽
I liked the movie. That twist was definitely something. It makes a lot more sense seeing Joe kill some people. Since I don’t think the real Samaritan took lives.
Joe Smith is the most common name ever.
I loved it..
We need a buddy team up between Nemesis and Violent Night's ex-Viking Santa.
The boy that plays Sam looks like he could play Damion Wayne in DC and batman movies
M Night Shyamalan, this is how you do a plot twist not make it too obvious.
Watched the movie 2-3 nights ago .. I didnt nessicarly pick up on the swerve .. so i got it when it came out in the movie. This was a very good movie that wouldnt have done well in the theater but would have been fine as a paid direct to release.
I thought it was pretty good and the styles well!
Idea 4 'a sequel ':
Sly Stallone's character is dying... and he meets up with a very fallen and broken ex-cop who's fatally wounded while saving a family from a burning house; Sly's character 'Nemesis',in order to save the ex-cop's life, injects him with his OWN blood,this the ex-cop now has superpowers just like 'Nemesis'.... and slowly begins training to take over as the 🆕 'Nemesis'.
But first, the ex-cop must clear his name of the same crime that he didn't actually commit.
But who?
How?
Why??!
I love that plot idea
That is just like she-hulk attorney at law lol
