An average movie

For a while , Mel Gibson had become actually more famous for his anti-social behavior than for his acting qualities. However, in my opinion, the guy was still an interesting actor so I was quite curious to see his comeback (indeed, he would give in this movie his 1^st lead part in almost a decade). I mean, sure, it was a rather standard conspiracy based thriller but even though the whole thing was nothing really ground-breaking, I thought that the end result was not so bad at all. Basically, the weakest point was the story as they tried to keep it mysterious but, eventually, it was actually rather confusing in my opinion. Still, the directing was decent enough and there were a couple of nice action scenes with some rather dramatic conclusions. At the end of the day, the best aspect of the movie was actually Mel Gibson himself. Sure, he gave here a rather standard action hero performance but, in my opinion, he still managed to add some sensitivity to this performance and that’s somethine that only a few action stars are actually able to pull off. To conclude, even though it was not a masterpiece whatsoever, I thought it was still a decent action flick and I think it is still worth a look especially if you are interested in Mel Gibson’s work.
