The camera work in this film is very good, as is the acting for the most part. The storyline is fairly mundane (been done a 100 times), but the direction of the film is crisp, so the story moves well on the screen. The action sequences are the real downfall of the film; they are terrible and highly unbelievable. They are not quite as unbelievable as Tarantino sequences and stories (and that is really not a good thing), because in real life, you just don't have all that time to get out of those situations. The characters, for the most part, are convincing, but the gunplay is not. And while I like the twist with the girl, it could have been done far better with a bit more development after the surprise. The film was watchable and entertaining, but fell short in the believability department. Both fellows have good potential though.
