A really beautifully shot film, nice effects and pretty much good acting by the cast. Understandably Willis didn't participate much due to health reasons but those of us of a certain age can't help but remember his stellar action performances back in the day and it's hard not to be frustrated watching him not perform to his potential.
That being said it's the story that lets this movie down, it tries to be clever and it probably appears to be on paper, or by those who are up close. Unfortunately though it doesn't work. I can put this down to the way in which several characters are not given much in the way of development and remain very much two-dimensional.
You really don't care about their back story, which I understand doesn't seem important as we are told they are all criminals, but if that's the case why bother giving us an insight into them. All of their stories are left flapping in the wind with no coherent energy to stitch them together, or just bring them to a neat conclusion.
The film just feels unfinished and rushed.
