Acting & Story not bad BUT

Rating: 5/10 (18 November 2011)

Justin Timberlake and Amanda Seyfried both did good job when it comes to acting, more credits to Timberlake than Seyfried since his role demanded more skills than Seyfried. As for the story, it was new, interesting, and could be related to especially with the recession going on, the uprisings that's going on in different places around the world, and the whole occupy wall-street movement that's happening around the US. However, the movie as a whole was not well connected, the stars did a good job but not the others as well. The fact there is no concrete ending to the movie is also disappointing since the movie came through as missing a solid conclusion. Also, the relationship that both stars got to share and develop had to be worked on a little bit more, they seemed to fall in love without working on the reasons. The conclusion hinted that there might be a second part, which is not bad, and it should be more interesting. Last but not least, the movie is male dominant, with all people that have power are men, no powerful female character. The movie clearly portrayed the reality of life where men rule everything.
