Really stupid and the directing is almost unwatchable
17 April 2016 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

I had high hopes for this one. The cast is awesome.. The idea of a crime thriller/action movie is appealing. Boy was it disappointing.

The story is ... well really stupid.. but its an action flick.. so we can go along with it in the name of fun.... but the film is very very frustrating to watch. I don't know what Ariel was thinking.. Did he make his mark in music videos or something? The full use of hand-held cameras and the constant movement make sure that the picture is jittery and blurred throughout. A very lazy and cheap approach to film making. It can really ruin a film. If you couple the hand held camera aspect with the way it is cut with extreme closeups in practically every shot, you end up with a film that is extremely frustrating to watch. I have seen enough of Kevin Costner's nose hair. :-)

Very few shots last more than 3-4 seconds. Every shot is an extreme closeup, and very jittery and constantly moving.. Arrrrgh..

I kept noticing how much the film resembled the previews shown before movies. Previews are teasers, with very quick flashes of video. But they aren't the full film. This movie is essentially an hour and a half of a preview video. If you can endure it, along with the stupid stupid ridiculous story, you might have a decent time.
