Misconduct

That Shimosawa guy must have slipped something in to everybody's drink. For him to get so many known actors to join his cast, with this script and with his credentials, is beyond me. The story is horrendous, the execution was worse. *Bad

All of the elements of a really good movie but the story and presentation was terrible. Excellent cast, action, intrigue, mystery, beautiful women, good production quality & good performances all dragged down by an overly convoluted plot, abysmal story telling and either really bad editing or lousy directing. It was entirely unconvincing. A shameful waste. Writer fail. Director fail. Editing fail.

Dreadful to watch considering how good the cast is.

Kadronun güzelliğine rağmen çorba olan filmlerden biri. Ters köşe özenle işlenmezse ortaya karmaşa çıkıyor maalesef. Aradaki gereksiz ayrıntılar ve kesik kesik kurgu da filmi düşürüyor. İyi bir başlangıç, vasat bir son.

İlaç şirketlerin iç yüzünü anlatan film. İnsanları öldüren bir ilaç, güzel bir sarışın sevgili tarafından deşifre ediliyor. Avukat, eş ve ex aşk üçgeninden bir intikam hikayesi çıkmış. Anthony Hopkins ve Al Pacino'nun toplantı sahnesi muhteşem. Ters köşe hikayesi cezbedici. Filmin konusu karanlık olacak diye sahnelerin karanlık çekmesi abes. Bir de filmde senkronizasyon hatası var ki aman aman. Cevabını bildiğin soruları sorma tamam mı? Tamam.

On the upside: the absurdity of it all keeps it's from being a bore. Doesn't mean it's good though.

bad movie

Undernourished but still watchable thriller wastes a potentially epic Hopkins/Pacino headlining match-up, and gives both legends little to do except function as secondary distractions for the central plot of Duhamel's marriage infidelity and immersion in a seedy corruption plot (echoing millions of similar 90s TVMs). Still, Duhamel is pleasant enough company for this journey, and his two ageing co-stars show they still have what it takes to elevate C-grade material.

Some of the worst editing I have seen in any movie

I can't believe they wasted the first special clash of Anthony Hopkins vs Al Pacino in a very random thriller starring Josh Duhamel....

"her heart stopped beating and mine stopped hurting... it kinda did" lol at the ending

Overblown, convoluted nonsense that was recommended purely for being overblown nonsense

what a waste ...
