Paying to see this should be a crime

Rating: Null/10 (1 June 2003)

Critics these days seem to give good reviews if only part of a movie is entertaining instead of the whole picture. This seems to be the case with this. This picture is rewarded for half-working and it reveals the terrible state of movie-making today. The first 45 minutes are entertaining but then we are insulted with the most ludicrous and unbelieveable plot twists you can think of. It is time for people to say that is simply not good enough.
This movie insults you with the most banal wrap-up in memory- cliches are thrown at you at a dizzy pace because the writers are just too lazy or don't care enough to think of something more plausible. At the end of the picture, you are not even sure what planet this caper takes place on. It is certainly not Earth. Sorry, someone needs to tell the writers you cannot control traffic or subways from a computer hacker. You would think the writers had never even been to Los Angeles by the way they portray it.
This had potential, but it was washed away by an impossible ending that destroys the entire picture.
