This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Simply A Masterpiece

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

This film fails miserably as a thriller. The characters are overblown and totally unbelievable in a story which goes from one exaggerated situation to another. The actors, every one of them, give good performances but due to the storyline appear to be acting in a series of clips (some of them little gems) with little continuity. If this film had been treated as a comedy along the lines of "The whole nine yards" it could have been very funny indeed, unfortunately it falls into the category of those films whose directors have used excellent actors in order to draw the audience but then uses them badly by not having fully thought the story through first to get an idea of how the whole thing will look on screen.
