An average movie

Honestly, I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but since there was a pretty cool cast, I thought I should check it out. In my opinion, this movie really had some potential. Indeed, the story was quite intriguing and I thought that Jared Leto and Salma Hayek were both impressive and delivered some very good performances. I always had a weak spot for Salma Hayek but, to be honest, it is not very often that she get something really substantial to chew on but it was definitely the case here. Unfortunately, the whole thing didn’t completely convince me and the main issue was that they never really knew where it should actually focus. What was it really about ? Was it about the killers? Was it about the cops? As a result, the whole thing was a little bit messy. In my opinion, the plot should have focused on the killers since they were the most interesting characters. Still, in spite of its flaws and the fact that it is a pretty obscure feature, I think it remains a rather well made and intriguing crime thriller and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
