Voice-over ruins movie

Rating: 3/10 (30 August 2010)

One of the mysteries of modern mass media is why so many otherwise good films are ruined late in post-production by unnecessary add-ons. Whether it's Lucas throwing in cheesy special effects in a Star Wars re-release, or sitcom producers putting in laugh tracks, or unnecessary explanatory dialog, sometimes a producer's contempt for his audience seethes threw and ruins a film.
Here, what could have been a reasonable film was destroyed by an almost constant stream of unnecessary voice-over purporting to give character motivation and plot explanation. But the character motivation and plot motivation were already in the film! I don't think there has been such a bad voice-over of an otherwise good film since the theatrical release of Blade-Runner.
There is also excessive profanity in the film.
