Some okay action scenes, but doesn't work.

Rating: 5/10 (6 July 2009)

This movie is just a simple story of a bank robbing murderer who randomly falls in love with a woman he barely knows.
No plot twists, no intricate story lines or stunning symbolism. I was day-dreaming about random things while watching this movie.
Johnny Depp and Christian Bale obviously acted well, as did many supporting actors(aside from whoever did BabyFace). But it was still just a lot of men walking around with grins on their faces.
The action scenes have a different type of camera usage, I guess it is like Cam-in-hand, but the frame rate seemed really high. This was kinda cool, but still very jumpy.
If I want cool action scenes, I'll go watch Con-Air. This movie needed depth, and it did not deliver.
Also, the actors weren't pushed to do anything amazing, it was all just very basic stuff.
