I am so glad that I talked my dad out of going to theaters to see this one. He was whining at first but when he rented it and we watched he was glad that I can tell a stupid movie from the trailer.

Well the movie started out awesome. With in minutes you are just going wtf. After that you are just waiting for it to pick back up but it never does. We just kept fast fowarding the whole movie waiting for something to happen

So this is the movie in a nutshell. George Clooney makes a gun; falls in love with a Hooker; then dies. Don't be mad for me soiling this movie for you, cause I just saved you 90 minutes of ugghhh oh my God.

Do you like this review?

    @charlie111: While I agree with your opinion on this film wholeheartedly, fast forwarding through it only works with silent movies. You miss things. Not necessarily plot related, but you miss them.

    I considered it an extreme showing of my movie-watching commitment that I made it all the way through!

    This is why trailers for movies like these are always misleading. They just show the action and suck you in. sometimes unexpectedly you enjoy it, or in this case, hate it

    you know it was made very clear in all the articles i read that this was not an action movie and was a character study so the non-action does not surprise me. I always research movies before i spend hard earned money so i knew exactly what to expect and in that sense i found it rather refreshing. Granted it was no Up in the Air but a good character piece regardless.

    I am sorry that you did not find the action you were looking for...there are plenty of Transporter movies etc. for you out there however.

    @dan1 Perhaps you're right. I guess it all "Depends."

    Well at least Clooney dies. That's always a plus. I don't like that smug, overrated guy.

    Maybe you didn't like it cause you fast-forwarded through everything.
