Third in the _Rampage_ franchise (and I suppose the final one?) and while it was entertaining, I found this one to be much more about the anti-establishment propaganda message than just the wanton violence of the original. It actually seemed, in this film, that Uwe Boll was actually trying to push some kind of agenda across…minus the random bloodshed, of course. To me, that sort of detracted from the original film's "beauty" of just a ruthless, unhinged, psychotic free-for-all. I mean, maybe this one hit too close to home to be comfortable because you know there really are some twisted minds out there (come on, who thought up THIS film?!) that have some sort of repressed urge to do the "Bill Williamson" thing and get away with it. It was easier - for some bizarre reason - to accept the original _Rampage_ film as just some "kid" who snapped and went off, whereas this one seemed far too politically motivated and anti-establishment to just sit back and laugh at all the killing. Some of what was espoused in this movie as "facts" may have had a ring of truth; some of it, in fact, may be the real truth: I've been reading a lot of biographies and history of America's "founding fathers" and found much of what "Bill" said in one of his many diatribes to be true (according to history...but who's to say that our printed history books are factual?) regarding the founding of this nation and how it was cultivated on slave labor, etc etc. All that aside, however, I was just hoping for another shooting spree sans all the anti-establishment, anti-God rhetoric. This was good, but it was too "preachy" to even compare to the cold-blooded anarchic tone of the original. Worth watching if you like the _Rampage_ movie (the first and second) and just want to finish the trilogy, but apart from that, it was just another _"Kill 'em all and let God sort 'em out...wait, there's no God, so just kill 'em all anyway."_ movie.

Serial shooters is definitly something that is close to Uwe Boll's heart and it shows in the movies he makes about these (he's made a bunch when he's not making super poor videogame adaptations and other things), he simply puts in that extra effort in to these films that he doesn't do in other films, let's be real Uwe doesn't exactly scream quality film generally speaking.

And while this is not as good (or great) as the other 2 movies in the Rampage trilogy it's still a decent enough way to end it.

Had my concerns that it wouldn't be because the reception in general wasn't the best and Uwe was also rather pissed at his fans when he wasn't able to fully fund it via Kickstarter, to the degree that he vowed to never make a movie again. Which of course he later detracted and ended up making this anyway.

So I was wondering if the lack of public funding would make him lose interest just going to half ass it this time, but luckily that doesn't seem to have been the case. While not perfect I think this movie does get alot of things right and brings some more depth and character development to the character of Bill and Brendan Flether does get to showcase more range in his performance so yeah overall I was not let down.

If you are wondering if you can watch this without seeing the others the answer is, you can but it would be a mistake as the other 2 are better and well you'll lose out on context and stuff.
