Starring: Sam Worthington, Elizabeth Banks, Jamie Bell, and Mandy Gonzalez
Director: Asger Leth
Rated: PG-13 - Runtime: 102 min
Genre: Crime | Thriller
In short the movie has plenty of excitement along with a good story line which should have made this a great film. Unfortunately it didn’t seem to have the draw either due to poor advertising, insufficient money to promote it or perhaps they just didn’t see the film as a huge money maker, who knows.....
As the movie starts the audience is presented with what’s happening currently, then we are taken back in time to see where everything seemed to go bottoms up for Nick Cassidy (Sam Worthington). If you haven’t seen any of the movie trailers you will find that isn’t clear why Nick is out on the ledge of the building..(but this is one of these movies that has been completely spoiled by trailers, for some reason the promoters of the film decided to add to the trailer a part that would have kept the movie goer guessing as to the reason). I thought the acting from Worthington (Nick), Elizabeth Banks (Lydia Mercer), and Anthony Mackie (Mike Ackerman) were what makes the film what it is.
Overall I believe you will enjoy this one.
My Rating: 2 1/2 Mugs of Guinness - aka; 2 1/2 Stars for those not enjoying the better life with Irish Ale.
