This would have been easy to watch without Jonathan Rhys Myers.. His potrayal here very much reminds me of his poor performance in the series Vikings, in which Michael Hirst was quoted saying he had Myers speak the way he did "purposely"... So did the director do the same here?? He sounded the same, insincere, deadpan & as though he was reading a dull story aloud... I used to be a fan of Myers but he seems to have lost his way, making this movie a waste of the other actors' talent...
