Sooo baaad, Sooo juvenile
I feel sorry for Morgan
Freeman that he associated himself with such a terrible movie. It was
awful on so many levels: The acting and directing were right from a
poorly made video game. If our security and intelligence services are
really that bad then we are all truly screwed. Character development?
How do you develop something that doesn't exist? Script? It would have
been better as pantomime. Action sequences? Pllllleeeaaaase. Maybe
compared to a 50s science fiction movie? Then, to add insult to injury,
the gratuitous and completely non sequitur addition of the corrupt
"insider" at the end to explain how it was possible to infiltrate the
country with hundreds of well- trained and highly armed fighters, wire
the entire city with explosives, take down the entire computer grid, all
without anyone noticing. If our security and intelligence services are
really that bad then we are all well and truly screwed. There is
absolutely nothing at all redeeming about this waste of time and....(I
would have said effort, but there obviously wasn't any.
