Pointless Brutality

Rating: 5/10 (23 January 2005)

This may contain a spoiler.
This movie was stupid. By the time it was half over I could hardly take another minute of the pointless brutal violence that took up half of the screen time. This movie is about Tom Cruise ruthlessly killing people. If he was a contract killer the storyline behind this is never developed to any meaningful degree. We never get to really know who his character is other than that he wears a gray suit and is a lawyer in Washington. The most we learn about Cruise is that he has a particular shooting style of shooting in bursts to kill his targets. We learn this from the coroner :/ Jamie Fox's character is hardly developed either. The most we learn about Cruise Don't pay to see it. Ever.
