I dont know if my expectations are blurring a bit my review, but when I saw the cast of this movie I expected so much more.
It started fine, but the way they threw all the elements like assissan-that-cares/druga ddict/veteran/ love triagle/mom issues...
plus the gambling part (completely unnecessary in my opinon) was a bit much.. I would love to see the story line developing, but just not the way it was told. There is enough to be unfold in a season.. not a 90min movie. In the end some actors where completly wasted. It felt like a pilot of a new show... not a movie....
The action scenes were ok... It would've been better if they were a bit more realistic (like getting punched.. kicked in the face 3 ..4 x.. no one can take that!!!.. man or woman)... at least give an "injury vibe" like.. oh! it hurts.. anyway..
I loved seeing Chastain kicking ass, I hope she continues making action movies.. I just wish this one was better.
