Title: WELL MADE EXISTENTIAL CRAP
Review: An infuriating movie, full of some fine moments and at times, brilliant filmmaking. BUT it's still a pretentious half assed bore at times as well. For every great scene or moment, there's three more frustrating, unfinished scenes that are mired in self concious twaddle.It's almost as if the very talented Joe Carnahan started with an unfinished story and has blown it out with brooding, contemplative moments that only occasionally work. Ironically, had this been the man battling wolf thriller it was promoted as, it really might have been something.Thank God for Liam Neeson, it's his strong presence and natural gravitas that anchor this otherwise muddled experience, in fact without him it would be almost unwatchable.
