April 29, 2009Rambling actioner that can't build tension or put together a decent action sequence. No wonder this layed around gathering dust for a couple of years before release.

December 13, 2008Most of this movie was pretty good, but I found the ending to be an unrealistic sense of disillusion and incomprehensible empathy. It certainly wasn't terrible, but I was disappointed.
