Good acting, beautiful photography, awful movie

Rating: 2/10 (21 February 2005)

If the script was decent, this could be a fantastic movie. Unfortunately, it is absolutely dreadful, and I'm surprised I was awake at the end.
If you dislike cheesy Hollywood scenes (like the obligatory scene where lots of people are applauding/cheering the main character, which seems to be in 95% of Hollywood movies in one form or another), then you will not like this movie.
If you care about realism, or even if you can suspend disbelief, but you have a slight wish for reasonable cause-and-effect, then you will hate this movie.
If you like beautiful cinematography, and action where lots of people die or get hurt, but you don't care much for a plot, then you may very well think this movie is fantastic.
