Fairly good not great,.

Rating: 7/10 (12 July 2005)

I liked the script/story, it was basically a well told film.
The actors were all good, katie holmes was OK rather than great but that was because she had the least necessary role.
What I HATED though was the direction of the fight scenes, what with the constantly moving camera, close up shots etc it was terrible. Christopher nolan should have watched loads of good martial arts films and he would have worked out how to direct quality action scenes because the choreography of the fights looked fine.
If the action scenes would have been the same BUT well directed the film would have managed a 8, it would have still lacked any truly great action moments which for me a film like this needs to be in the 9's or 10's.
Will probably rent the DVD but won't be buying it.
