Cast: Ben Affleck, Justin Timberlake, Gemma Arterton,Anthony Mackie

Director: Brad Furman 

Genre: Thriller, Crime

Not a bad watch. Movie doesnt bore you or stagnate you

Pluses:

• Justin Timberlake, of course! He is the victim and he is the smarty by the end of it! He plays really well and i am a fan of him, that explains it :P
• Ben Affleck looks suave, classy and a master player but not as good as the story unfolds :) Like his charismatic appearance in here
• Movie has a certain pace which it never looses, so you dont feel fatigued at any point of time

Lukewarm:

• Gemma Arterton was just about average, nothing astounding or remarkably worth a mention about her
• Anthony Mackie hardly ever looked like an FBI agent, more of a thug :D

Minuses:

• The negligience towards the script could be the reason to the lukewarm boxoffice response. Needs quite a lot of smart act to prove what we saw at the end. Obvious behaviour of the female lead being the biggest clue, never caught by 'Ivan', weird! Not very thoughtful

My rating: 3/5
