With a cast including Liam Neeson, Viola Davis, Robert Duvall,Michelle Rodriguez, and Colin Farrell, and a story written by Lynda La Plante, one is entitled to be disappointed in this film. Too long, too slow to develop, and too many side stories (like Alice's escort client, the recruitment of Belle, for example ; and did the Amanda character add anything?) When we finally got to the robbery, the exciting music was good and the action good, but the denouement with Veronica and Harry was a bit limp and cliche-ish I thought. The best parts by far were when Robert Duvall was on screen.
