If your life is lame, kill people! =D

Rating: 2/10 (3 May 2009)

The moral of this movie is as follows: You should become a quasi-Neitzchean superman who doesn't take lip from anyone! The way to do this is to go into your dad's business and do whatever the magic rug tells you to.
This movie could have tried to be a mindless action film about amoral bastards, which it is, but it has denial issues. It tries to make bold, philosophical statements, undermined by its own ridiculousness. It just doesn't use enough explanations to cover the sheer amount of impossible stuff going on, and can't be taken seriously. At the same time, it moans, pleas, and begs for the viewer to be awed by its non-existent depth.
The protagonists are unlikable bastards. The action is bogged down by slow-motion shots of bullets, computer keys, teeth, etc. that are cute in the first five minutes and then get irritating. The film tries to pass off cheap wish fulfillment as courage and realizing true destiny.
No matter how collateral damage you wantonly inflict, and how many people you kill, you can't be an action hero if you take orders from a loom.
