Ben Affleck's first direction didn't convince me

Rating: 3/10 (24 August 2008)

Sorry, but this was for me and my wife boring at least for the first half. Then I woke up by some loud shots when you know what I mean and at this point the plot finally started. Anyway there were many slow paced scenes that I saw already in other films. Okay the story is a puzzle to solve but if you didn't pay enough attention you have to wait till the end when some intriguing scenes are solved by a review. Therefore I heard some good dialogs and recommendation about little children but the whole movie didn't take me on a great ride. The actors did all a good job but the direction from Ben Affleck must be better in future but I wish he returns as an actor in his next work. Final vote: 3/10. Too overrated on this site.
Watch instead TRAPPED, MAN ON FIRE or DON'T SAY A WORD.
