Marlowe

I think this had a lot of potential as I enjoyed the plot and the twists and turns. I don't know a lot about the character of Philip Marlowe in other adaptations, but Neeson just isn't convincing in the action scenes. It really pulled me out of it when he easily overpowered people 40 years younger than him.

While there are some standout moments and choice dialogue, the cons of “Marlowe” far outweigh the pros. Viewers who love film noir may be disappointed by the stiff execution and miscast lead.
