A cinematic disaster
Dull supernatural thriller than has Keanu Reeves playing a modern day ghost buster who helps a police detective (Rachel Weisz) in a race against time to prevent the end of the world. Now this is an interesting premise but the biggest problem this film faces in the casting of Keanu Reeves, who is miscast to the hill. It also does not help that his performance is as wooden as ever in this film, not to mention the fact that his character is more of a selfish jerk than a person that you can root for and not to mention the fact that he is also the most underwritten character in the entire movie. You don't really care about him at all and you really don't want to spend any more time with him as well. His leading lady Rachel Weisz steals the movie from right under him and the rest of the so-so cast with a tight and strait forward performance that is soulful and gripping but the movie unfortunately is not as deep as her performance and it titers between juvenile and self parody. The screenplay at one point of the film does an about face and contradicts all that was explain earlier in order for certain thing to just happen for the sake of the climax, which is not very good to begin with.If you want to see it, you will not be disappointed with the great performance of Rachel Weisz but you will be disappointed with the movie as a whole.
