What was the point of making this movie?
10 October 2007
Is it possible that some people thought "we basically do not have any interesting story and we do not have any idea about what the story we have is about but we have Halle and Bruce so let's do it"? Apparently it is. Really. Because yes - this movie has no storyline. There is of course some plot but it just does not work. No sense, almost no logical connection between scenes, nothing. And since there was nothing interesting in the story someone thought it could be splendid idea to add some networking/computer/Internet mumbo-jumbo to blur it even more. And it worked perfectly as always when someone from Hollywood tries to input some "hacking" into the movie. Inconsequences are countless here, as countless as it is pointless to point them one by one. Together with all that crap we have Bruce, who tries to be charming or brutal randomly and Halle, who is... well, she just is. Can't find better description of her "acting" since there is no actual acting there... On the other hand even the best actor need to have some role given to act and it looks like no one actually bothered to give it to those two. And when all this finally comes to and end and you think there is no way to make it worse there is this "great suspense" about who the killer was. It was really great "suspense", it must have even surprise the author of the script himself! I bet he figured it out just ten minutes before the last shooting. I based this idea on that nothing in the previous scenes logically connect this "suspense" at the end with the rest of this chaotic story... Don't bother to watch even if you a big fan of Willis. If, on the other hand, you like Halle, well, even then better to look at some poster.
