Missed Opportunity

Rating: 6/10 (24 August 2014)

I think that the idea behind this movie was fantastic. As soon as i saw the trailer, i was immediately determined to go see it as soon as i could. However, after seeing it i was a little disappointed. The potential i saw in it before just wasn't there and by the end of the movie, i was just sitting there craving more. Mainly, i expected the movie to be mainly action based. I liked that there was a bit of a romance and i liked how it really drove the action to take place but i think that they sacrificed too much of the adventure and action in order to develop the movie into more of a romantic adventure. I might just be me but i feel that when Ben Stiller directs a movie, it's always missing something. Don't get me wrong, i love Ben Stiller's style but i'm always left wanting more after seeing one of his movies. I enjoyed this movie and would recommend it but over all i think that the producers and directors missed out on an enormous opportunity.
