A really annoying director destroys a good story

Rating: Null/10 (13 November 2004)

Warning - Might contain spoilers --
The movie while Scott wasn't trying to show his "artistic" view, of which he has absolutely none, was pretty good if not entirely fluid. The plot points were absolutely ruined by what he must have expected to be "artist-oid" cinematics, really sad and annoying, since they made the movie hell to watch, the screenplay seems to be very good, performances as well which obviously survived the lousy third-rate direction.
Watch this movie preparing to watch some really bad sequences where the movie could hold on its own due to story, and not to some director that has never been able to prove himself.
It's really sad that a movie I was enjoying is messed up by the arrogance of a wanna-be director. Definitely Scott's lesser brother.
Thumbs up, as always, to Denzel Washington and Dakota, really amazing actors even with lousy direction, a tough test on their careers.
