..Dont really get it..

Rating: 5/10 (22 December 2009)

I just don't get this movie. For the first hour I was leaning closer to the edge of my seat as the two lead characters played cat & mouse with each other. It all seemed to building up nicely to a spectacular showdown, but instead Brolins character is shot suddenly & we don't even get to see it? I mean whats that about? Instead we get Tommy lee Jones's character moralising & making some sort of speech that no one understands & has no relevance you just want to get back to the main story. I couldn't really see the point of TLJ's character, much as I like that actor, nor could i see the logic of the Woody harrellson character.I found the dialogue leaves a lot to be desired also. This should have been a good action/crime thriller but the directors & writers seemed to be hellbent on messing it up, to which they succeeded with flying colours. There are some good scenes & acting in this film but its so disjointed & inconsistent in so many places, I was left feeling confused & disappointed once the credits rolled(abruptly).
