Expected less and got even lesser

Rating: 6/10 (2 July 2008)

I have to admit that I had low expectations to begin with just because from the trailer alone we saw a reluctant main hero who was recruited to join a special elite group. Which is pretty obvious what type of movie it was going to be especially with the over the top special effects but seeing that there hasn't been a good all action gun war in a long time I've decided to watch it anyways.
The storyline as I assume it to be was exactly as expected which in some cases I found the secondary character to be more interesting then main one. The action scenes would have been much more greater if they didn't show all of them in the trailers so going to see this movie would be even more of a let down if you've seen them already.
I think it would have been more interesting to see if the story line had the characters revolved around the special bullets and how it would effecting them in one way or another instead.
If your looking for more substance and a different look in the art of gun fighting I recommend watching "Equilibrium" but I admit the pacing will be a little bit more slower then "wanted" but much more gratifying.
