Overall not very believable presentation of a seemingly good story

Rating: 8/10 (15 October 2010)

Great action in the beginning of the film, then a long period of boring dull story construction. Then there was more excitement followed by even more dull interaction and not very believable acting on Ben's part. Finally the culmination is a huge gun battle and a completely unbelievable ending.
I gave it a 6 of 10 because the acting of Rebecca Hall, Jeremy Renner and Jon Hamm helped to create a suspension of disbelief. However, when Ben was on screen I kept thinking why didn't Ben cast his brother Casey for the main character.
I thought Ben did a phenomenal job in "Hollywoodland" and "Good Will Hunting", so I know he can act, but in this film he just didn't impress me much.
