A bit disappointed

Rating: 5/10 (6 April 2009)

I eventually got around to seeing this film after years of meaning to. It's very well made, well produced, acted and directed, I just didn't really like it very much.
Firstly, there's not really any main characters in the film that I felt any liking or sympathy for. OK the female cop, but she wasn't that much of a character, or, at least, not one we really learnt that much about.
Secondly, it was always very obvious what was going to happen, right down to the ending. Such was the general incompetence of the perpetrators, there could hardly be any other outcome.
So, all in all, not a film that really engaged me or one in which I cared about what happened to the characters.
