Overwhelming visual impulses and no mysteriousness

Rating: 6/10 (14 March 2002)

From a visual point of view the movie is done very well.
But as for me (and my wife too) the movie was too bombastic,too much excitement that has to cover up for the lack of indepth and suspense. I missed the mystique that I was expecting. There was too much indulgence in grotesc fighting. But I guess that that is what the American public likes...
