It would've been good, BUT...

Rating: 7/10 (10 July 2008)

I always wondered how hard it might be for someone to create a movie. You should come up with an original idea, than develop it, and so on.
But it seems that the writers never had such thoughts. What do you need for a good movie? Lots! What do you need for a good-selling movie? Hmm... This one seems easier.
In fact the writers invented the magic bullets and sewing machines. The rest was taken from "Batman Begins" and "The Matrix". Some humor from "Shoot 'Em Up". And voilà! No wait! Still not enough... You cannot do something like an old great movie and call it great, too. This is the moment when you call on Angelina and Morgan!
I'll stop pretending to be a critic. What's wrong? Are nowadays movies only for making profits? Yes, i agree: the director did a great job. So did the actors and the designers. But remember: great movies create great actors. In order for great actors to create another great movies.
And this movie is not the case. It left me quite disappointed and made me feel like watching the Classics again.
9 out of 10 for actors and crew. 3 out of 10 for originality and creativity. 7 out of 10 overall.
