I don't usually write comments, but this movie was just awful. First, I never sleep during a movie, even when I'm tired. But this movie was just that boring. It had a good storyline, but expressed it ways that are unbelievably terrible. The plot jumped from place to place until the extent that it didn't make sense anymore. Some parts weren't even necessary. As such, the beginning (the random football game) had no point and the ending didn't tie all the loose ends. The lighting was dim and barely visible at times. The camera was unstable and shaky, which makes no sense in a dramatic movie such as this (does better in a movie like Quarantine). This is probably because the movie, instead of using a rail, carried it by hand in some parts. It made the unnecessary scene into longer scene, whereas the action and the "important dialogue" was cut up into short pieces. The editing and transitions could also use a lot of work too. There were scenes where a different language was used, but no subtitles were given (which is practically a middle finger in my case). Everybody swears: "fuck," "shit," "bitch," it's as if the actors had just quit smoking or it was their period. Finally, the acting was probably mediocre at best all together, even with more experienced actors like Edward Norton and Colin Farell. If you like a good movie, watch Body of Lies or something that doesn't make you say "I was expecting more," or "What the hell was that piece of crap?" Do anything, but don't watch this movie.
