An American blend

Rating: 5/10 (10 May 2005)

Someone saw «Jackie Brown», «Touchez pas au Grisby» and all the «James Bond» series, liked it all and thought he could 'americanilly' better. Nahhh... The film has too many flashbacks, too many gadgets and Clooney, as usual, is not convincing. It is way too 'artless' for my taste and that story 'short-circuit' at the end, when the we are all told the film did't, after, tell us the whole story is totally so low! What a loss of time! Can't the author unspool a storyline (stress on the LINE)? The film doesn't tell the story (assuming there is a story to be told). All in all a one time only viewable movie. Saved by the Pitt and the Damon.
