Awful

Rating: 4/10 (30 December 2011)

I had high expectations of this film, having seen the 8-rating on IMDb. And God, was I disappointed. A clumsy political message slapped onto a boom-and-bam action film. The suspense was, to say the least, boring. After 20 minutes of watching this movie, I didn't care who this masked-anti-hero was - he could be a grandmother from a state nursing home, for all I cared. The dialogue, lacking any subtlety or finesse, threw ham after ham at the audience. We are supposed to sympathise with this character for his political motives yet he tortures the female protagonist just the same, to prove a point; of course, for an unconvincing reason, she forgives him, and everything is dandy between them. Here lies another problem with the film: all the characters are two-dimensional. Before watching this movie, I advise you to consider whether its worth throwing away 2 hours of your time to watch a film that would bore even the people who produced it.
