Not So Much

Rating: 5/10 (3 July 2008)

I'm not gonna lie...I was very unimpressed with this movie. I give it a five based completely on some interesting action sequences and Angelina Jolie (considering that I am a young, male moviegoer).
The first problem that I had with the movie has to be the amount of unnecessary one-liners. Those kind of comments haven't worked since Arnold was heavy in the movie business, and even then I only liked them because they were funny. Also, as said before, I am in my 20's and I still think that movie had too much cussing. It actually distracted me from the storyline, which was awful.
This movie had weak characters that did nothing to get the audience emotional involved with them, and I felt nothing but regret (for going to the movie) when Angelina killed 50% of the characters with a single bullet.
Finally, to top it off the movie ended with a another one-liner (What the F*** have you done lately) that did nothing but leave a bitter taste in my mouth.
The only thing positive that I can say about the movie was that it had some captivating action scenes, even though the camera work was so shaky I thought I was going to have a seizure. Sure it took after the Matrix, but I can't knock a movie for following in the footsteps of one of the greats.
