Review Time
Warning: there are flashing effects in this project
Storyline/Characters/Performances: in one way or another these three components go hand-in-hand; the
storyline should have been something safe and reliable, but in reality it comes
across as a disjointed mess.
Now for some
strange reason this film begins really lively and it wants to move quickly, but
it isn't moving anywhere in the film quickly [so in a nutshell we have this
lively atmosphere including noticeable background music, but the film isn't
doing much.]
But
unfortunately when the storyline and this lively movement and atmosphere sink
up together, it doesn't last, after this one element [Sam/Booth gets slapped in
the face by Gillette/Suchet,] things slowly but surely begin to snowball
downhill where things collapse [on a small side note I don't think highly of
this element, she just has to stand there and take it; whilst she is clearly
ready to fight him, possibly the reason why she just takes it is; this
character/performer could do something much worse or get someone to do
something much worse in some way or another]
The movement
and this film either becomes monotonous or predictable and I really don't care
about these big reveal components roughly around the closing section of this
project and including the character developments; they don't help either; they
are just a cliché and as it relates to one specific character/performer they
really do push on these character developments hard [as it relates to
Rob/Jarsky.]
By the way I
should point out that I am not criticizing Rob/Jarsky. When you come to watch
this film, these performances/on-screen chemistry is at worst something solid
and at best has untapped potential, but generally speaking, if they were
instructed for their characters to come off the way they have then they have
achieved that.
Action/Comedy: for one example of the action
the viewers see in this rough description of this scene Sam/Booth shooting this
gun with this substance on to this keypad to press in the right code which is
some distance away and not forgetting there is these infrared beams in this
scene as well; this is good.
Comedy; it
is a monologue or in the dialogue exchanges, but there is one element I can
discuss; Kevin/Reynolds goes into this location and distracts this
character/performer by doing this; empty my bag routine which it has lots and
lots of rubbish in it.
This film receives: 4/10, this film is
mixed; now after everything is said and done this mark is a fair outcome, but
to leave this review on a positive if there are either fans of Ryan Reynolds or
David Suchet a.k.a. [Hercule Poirot] in the UK TV program Poirot or its
alternative name Agatha Christie's Poirot out there in Internet land take a
look at this film, but I wouldn't expect too much that is all I am going to
say.
