Review Time: this
title is excellent
Fundamental elements: there are voice-over elements, cultural elements,
slow-motion effects, background music, no subtitles being used when another
language is being used, place jumps and time jumps.
Storyline: it is
good and it knows what it is from beginning to end
Action sequences:
there are weapons being used, helicopters being used, combat and chasing
sequences.
Character developments/Performances: generally speaking the character developments and the
performances of this cast are good. Now on to Gere and Norton their character
developments/performances firstly the character developments are ones of in one
way or another dominator and submissive [I should just point out in a
non-sexual way, I have just used these words because it is a great way to talk
about their character developments and chemistry without giving too much away]
and yes I would say when it is time for Gere's character to be submissive it
qualifies just based on what he is up against the power of dominator vs.
submissive has changed between these two characters/performers even though his
character is still on the same level.
Now
on to the performances; Gere's is self-assured and arrogant, but more
importantly plays the main stable role between these two performers, there is
two other recurring characters/performers that will experience some of what
Gere experiences as well [McDormand and Linney.] Now onto Norton because the
previous three performers are stable it gives Norton license to go through
these metamorphosis which on one hand looked to be slightly uncomfortable yet
on the other hand seemed to be a natural switch from one to the other [that is
as much as I can tell you; you will understand when you come to watch this
title,] but in short Norton's performance is of a high caliber [for an example
Golden Globe Winner Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role in a
Motion Picture Edward Norton, there are other Winners and Nominations to go
with this project as well, yes I researched this.]
This film receives: 8/10, now I watched this title with another person and we
came up with the same mark.
