Pointless tale that doesn't add up
9 July 2017
This is two hours of my life i wont get back. Why a bunch of Australian actors (speaking in US accents) in an Australian funded movie would shoot a story based in New York is totally beyond me. The location is irrelevant and almost takes away from the story. The central plot about the letters is so labored as to be groan worthy. I kept waiting for some twist in the story - i am still waiting. This is a hackneyed plot that draws from so many other movies is like playing "spot the influence". (A Beautiful Mind plus many others). To top it off it the plot doesn't even make sense. Why, at the climax how does the guy run away from the police who appear to stop chasing him?? And they only fire one shot?? Plate glass windows into Grand Central station? Why does the bad guy do what he does without any warning? Avoid.
