Pretty good. Gibson turns in his regular good strainy-veiny necked performance, and so does everyone else. The story is pretty good and has some interesting plot twists. It almost seems like it’s from a book. But I prefer simpler, more visual plots. It’s incredible how many close-ups they use in this and all other new movies. Every shot, whether of a person or an object, is a super-close-up. It’s kinda gay.
What’s with that color-to-black and white, grainy, slow motion sequence at the end? I mean, it’s cool-looking, but is there an artistic point to it?
I’ve always found Ron Howard’s films to be kind of plain. Well-made, but plain. They’re the equivalent of speaking clearly without making a point.
