Mumbai: Digital streaming platform Lionsgate Play has announced the digital premiere of Chaos Walking. The film had its theatrical release in March 2021, and will be available for streaming from Friday.
Chaos Walking is directed by Doug Liman, and stars Tom Holland, Daisy Ridley, Mads Mikkelsen, and Nick Jonas in lead roles. This dystopian action film is set in the backdrop of a fictional world where there are no women, and all living creatures can hear each other s thoughts via a stream of images, words, and sounds termed as Noise. In the absence of women, Viola s (Daisy Ridley) life gets threatened, and Todd (Tom Holland) has to protect her from danger.
Chaos Walking is a weird as hell movie. Having sat on a shelf for literally years, even before the pandemic stated, and getting a quick theatrical release in the States, it finally hit VOD in Canada via eOne Films. Surprisingly, its not an unwatchable mess as some of the pre-release buzz stated. It is definitely strange and has a central stylistic hook that can be annoying but oddly compelling. Sometimes it sort of works, and sometimes it really doesn’t. Chaos is a bit of a mess but an interestingly oddball misfire, attempting to do something distinct. It doesn’t exactly succeed but it is unique.

It was a much-ballyhooed science fiction “original” anchored by two massive franchise stars, and it pretty much stinks for multiple reasons including a tone-deaf narrative and a chemistry-free pairing at its center. That film inexplicably managed to make a few bucks in theaters despite this, but the similarly messy and top heavy new film from
Doug Liman never stood that same chance. A sci-fi action/adventure “about” the sexes and headlined by stars from the two biggest film franchises in the world,
