Review Time: this film is mixed

Fundamental elements: there are voice-over elements, background music, cultural elements, slow-motion effects, mental imagery, no subtitles when another language is being used, time jumps and place jumps.

I should just quickly point out that the slow-motion effects get used to the level of a relentless nature, it's like someone sent a memo around saying "We are going to use this effect so much in this project before it goes out of fashion."

Action sequences: there are weapons being used, combat elements and chasing sequences with different modes of transport being used such as motorbikes and a helicopter. Now there is one action sequence I can talk about for a little while and this is just a rough description, it is where our lead role is sitting on this motorbike, facing these evildoers in their vehicle chasing them, this motorbike which he is sitting on has these bullet holes in it, so what he decides to do is; collide with this oncoming vehicle [he changes his position from a sitting to a standing shooting these guns] and on the point of impact/he jumps and goes rolling over the top and lands behind this vehicle and continues shooting his guns.

Character developments/Performances: these character developments are what they are, they fulfil their purpose and that is it and the same can be said for the performances they do the job.

This film receives: 5/10, now I did find it weird that a character put a cake with a burning candle [birthday cake with a really small candle] inside her desk drawer and closed it, yes she did retrieve it and nothing was damaged, I find it weird because you would put out the candle first before putting it away or you wouldn't leave it burning in this area right? The usage of a piano in this project is good, but on the whole this title receives this mark.
