No coherence..poorly told story with loose connections

Rating: 5/10 (14 February 2016)

Directors too often focus on individual scenes trying to milk their actors nowadays. This often leads to movies with seemingly no cohesion. Whether it's a style or something they think resonates with a certain crowd is hard to say. What is easy to remark is that this is a movie that has many pieces without a string. You're left with a yearning for a 'mov'ie but presented with something akin to stills.
Sure it has one or two moments, but with such an excellent ensemble, you expect good things from the movie and it just fails.
It could have been a great crime drama..look at departed or Donnie Brasco. It never really gets going and is quite boring
