Joe Carnahan's film is almost a satire of how action heroes (and audiences) see the same thrills over and over; Putting "Groundhog Day" on action steroids, the film has a patina of cleverness that's pleasing enough, but you've seen it before
it's written with obvious fondness for time-loop adventures, action movies and video games; the humor is generally easy to enjoy; "Boss Level" takes a well-worn gag and injects energy, showing the genre is still a game worth playing
it's skillfully directed nonsense; It's nothing groundbreaking, just good-humored bloody action directed at a frenetic pace, clocking in at about an hour and a half. Sometimes you need a little bit of fun, and "Boss Level" delivers
in this Hulu's entertaining time loop thriller.. we get fine work from supporting players Ken Jeong, Michelle Yeoh and Will Sasso.. Mostly, though, this is Grillo's film to carry, and he pulls it off with a combination of brute force and light charm
falling rather low on the wit spectrum for this genre but high in terms of action, Joe Carnahan's "Boss Level" plays up the ways these movies resemble video games.. This is all passably satisfying
as the umpteenth time loop movie we've seen of late, "Boss Level" never offers a convincing enough argument for the gimmick to be leaned on yet again, a mishmash of better movies blended into something a little bland
