This movie fails to give us good action, but manages to hold our attention one way or another.
To tell the truth, it seemed like a horrible action movie to me, since the action is almost non-existent and what is there is not very exciting, but somehow the director manages to make a good thriller and keep our attention throughout the film, despite of the non surprising story, in fact it becomes more predictable as the plot progresses. For some people, such absurd and implausible action can work in favor of the film, but to me it simply seemed zero fun and too exaggerated, the action genre by nature is like that, but this film takes it to the limits, being terribly tedious almost all the time. There were times when it felt like a Transformers movie, this just makes it clear that the director has stuck on how to do action scenes similar to those movies. The characters are flat and the performances are terrible, the constant movement of the camera does not reveal what is happening, evidencing the little commitment when planning the filming of this movie.
I thought it was a very bad movie, despite I never took my attention off the screen, thanks to its poor quality in the production and to an unexciting and too absurd action sequences.
