not what you expect

Rating: Null/10 (17 October 2011)

Judging from the name of the movie and from the limited trailers I've seen, I was expecting to see something similar to "Fast and furious" or "Ronin", but I was mistaken. This movie is done in pretty unique Art Deco style, which I have never seen in a movie done to such a degree. Its slow paced and grotesque. Even more violent scenes are done in a very slow paced subtle manner. Watching this movie is like looking at the dark superhero comic strip drawn by Lichtenstein. You would have to be in a certain mood to enjoy something like that, and I can see how a lot of people would find this movie boring and uneventful. With that said, I am truly amazed that the entire movie is done in the same unique style so well and in such a detail and with such superb acting. Despite being considered boring by some, I enjoyed watching it, it made my evening, and I am giving it 10 stars :)
