The International

I really wanted to give this a much higher score than I did. However it is marred with problems. During the major action sequence a character commits the complete opposite of what he should, with plot-driving results and Naomi Watts' character feels like a complete 3rd wheel to the plot. However the cinematography in this is fantastic, the dialog is superb and Clive Owen is fantastic in a great role. Overall it's much better than the average thriller but it's nothing that will below your mind.

No mistery, no thrills, no suspense. Just an unengaging sleek-looking movie.

It's really well made it's just the story is so meh. The Guggenheim scene is incredible and extremely competent and if the whole movie was like that we would've had one amazing movie. The ending is such bullshit that I just felt robbed. Naomi Watts felt awkward in this but Clive Owen is such a badass you almost forget about it.

Just saw the premiere at the Berlin film festival, but that's the best for me to say about this film. It's just another thriller with a weak story. Ok, there is a very nice action scene in it but that can't help about the weak plot. Also the actors play just too wooden. Not because they're bad in general but because Tykwer lead them simply too bad.

A well made movie that suffers from bad plot/story/screenwriter syndrome. Clive Owen proves again to be a likable hero.
