    i'm not a fan of keira, she is very animated and limited. She is very a 1-character-actress. DOMINO is the only unique role she tried and did a half decent job.

    This sounds good, i can already feel the damp & grime of the story. hope the look matches plot and doesn't become a REVOLVER or SMOKING ACES!

    S'ok, the cast is great right? And c'mon, Monahan can do criminal, "The Departed" was awesome.

    I bet this is a period piece. That's all Keira does.
