Poor character development

Rating: 5/10 (13 December 2008)

The main character's development was appalling. I've been punched in the face before and it didn't teach me how to become a world class killer it taught me that i didn't like getting punched in the face. If they wanted to be a stereotypical action movie then the whole teaching montage should have some point between whining like a baby and becoming a pro. I liked the actor in the last king of Scotland because he played a great spineless wimp but too many of those same qualities came through on this character. killing some one as they are saving you makes the audience hate you no one likes a back stabber. if you have to kill them and you are that close have some dignity and use a knife. this actor does show great potential and i hope he does not get pigeon holed in to being a wimp whatever he does he should stay away from action movies.
