I do not enjoy forced upon dark movies like this. A let down!
You may look forward to:
- Cinematography....beautifully shot in Black and White wide screens. 3D look good. Certain splash of colors in between looked good too
- Jessica Alba, is one chic, every man should hit theaters for :) All she does is to dance seductively throughout, a wild cat :)
- Eva Green, plays a perfect bitch. Her charm, her seduction and deception, as well as her folly...she does it all so well
- I personally liked the character of Joseph Gordon-Levitt, poker genius with all confidence
- Josh Brolin, has a catchy and a grayish side of his role, he was mostly played upon, yet a semi heroic character :)
- Rosario Dawson and Dennis Haysbert had good supports
What you can sleep over:
- Mickey Rourke, has a tough role but the script doesn't leave much for him to do
- Powers Boothe, same story. Blame the script
- Bruce Willis, a cameo
The dampeners you should be aware of:
- The story was such a lame. Half baked story, undone roles, it doesn't help pick up good focus in the movie
- Action was just so unreal and like comic books. Gory content weren't gory, action sequences were nothing but cutting and slashing, age old, super boring techniques, which were mostly played by Jamie Chung and partly by others
- Jessica Alba, hot but wasted. Her final big kill was also purely out of chance and no heroism. She was better off in Fantastic Four :D
- Frank Miller certainly doesn't live up to the set expectations
My Rating: 2/5
