I just don't get it!

Rating: 2/10 (26 May 2010)

Yet again the ranking in IMDb has foxed me. How on earth has this film achieved such acclaim. The premise of the story was good but got tangled up in Christian analogy and political farce. Michael Caine was totally miscast and performed as Michael Caine as he does in almost all his movies. Clive Owen looked completely lost (or perhaps he was supposed to be) and Pam Ferris - well what can I say. Yes the cinematography was OK but there are so many other better examples of 'hand held' out there. Please view the film and make up your own mind but please open your mind and don't let the 'best' reviews colour your judgement. Very disappointing.
