This is a beautifully shot film with great acting, masturbating its way to the end. Pure fantasy. Plot holes that would trap a lioness. This story brings the threat of the Russian mob but we’re to believe the Russian mob consists of 5 people. The Russian mob never shows up. The Russian mob has a heart and doesn’t kill loved ones.
Rosamund Pike’s performance is spot on. You will hate her instantly by design. However, without an advisory of equal weight, Angela Lansbury could have solved this capper in 48 minutes and have you in bed by 10:00.
Chekhov’s gun - Elements should not appear to make false promises by never coming into play.
Lazy, lazy, lazy writing.
