Not as great...

Rating: 6/10 (23 December 2005)

I watched this movie because of all of the raving reviews I had heard of it (including some from this site). However, I was disappointed. The story is a bit of a roundabout--drawn out, not as interesting as made to seem. I had assumed this would be Snatch-like, or would contain more action/clever quips or at least a more captivating plot. This was not so...the film had its moments, but without giving anything away, it was all too fantastic (the villain).
The acting is pretty well done, Kevin Spacey was convincing (like always) and the other supporting cast members were also good. So, the production of the movie was good, the actual movie, not so good.
