Solid....not perfect

Rating: 8/10 (9 August 2013)

This was one this year that i was looking forward to and i can see now that my expectations may have been set just a little too high. This isn't to say that this film is any way bad by any means, I just wanted a little more from everything: I wanted more from Jodie foster, i wanted more from Matt Damon and Alice Braga, i wanted a few more minutes of action sequences, and i wanted more of Sharlto Copely. The acting is solid on all fronts and especially well done on Sharlto's part, i would say that he stole the show as performances go as the menacing sociopath Kruger. Everything in this film is done so well i just felt the credits rolled just a little too soon and honestly i just wanted a little more from the story and a little more character development all around. Still a very solid film and not even remotely bad to any extent and worth the price of admission.
