Actually thought that Mark Strong stole every scene that he was in. Great watch and poses great questions. Great thing about this movie is that it doesn’t answer the questions for you. See more thiago s @Thiagostone 04/17/2025 Filme mais ou menos, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são mais ou menos, o elenco é bacaninha, mas ninguém ajudou a melhorar o filme, a história é fraca, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e mais relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom, e mesmo com o Leonardo dicaprio e o Russell crowe o filme não alavancou em nada. See more Blu B @RT43513976 04/03/2025 Bery much a product of it's time. It's alright enough I guess. DiCaprio isn't bad and going full tryhard but the character he's given just isn't that interesting either but he does a admirable job given what he's given. Everyone else though man is just forgettable. Not really their fault it's more to do with how jumpy this is. Farahani is good and arugably the best of the support. The editing isn't that good here. The biggest problem is besides DiCaprio everyone feels like they are forgotten about for long stretches. Farahani, Strong, Crowe, and the othersnever really share scenes together and because of that it just gets very hard to follow in the middle. It feels like the plot of setting up a fake terrorist organization and the actual plot of hunting down the real terrorist feel like two completely seperate sotries despite for the most part always being focused on DiCaprio. Everything else is just alright. The direction is hit or miss. Some scenes are great and well shot. While others look boring or hard to follow. This also assumes you know about the Middle East and the politics and America's involvment in 2006. It doesn't explain it at all and there are things I just don't know what there referencing. The music also starts out good but just gets overused a bit and generic as it goes on. This is very much a political thriller than a Bourne style movie. Judging by the poster I expected a movie like Ronin or Heat but it's nothing like that at all. Nothing really like Scott or DiCaprio have ever done. But it just isn't that focused, doesn't set things up well, and the characters just aren't that interesting. Skip This. See more Read all reviews
