An average movie

I wasn't sure what to expect from this movie but since I have a weak spot for Emily Blunt, I thought I might as well check it out. In fact, I did see 'Cible émouvante', the French movie it was based on, ages ago and even though it was nothing amazing, I thought it was miles better than this British version. It's too bad because they had such a strong cast but the whole thing just bored me very fast. The best part was when it was starting with only Bill Nighy who was just spot on even though the guy can't hold a gun properly because he apparently suffers of Dupuytren's contracture, which means he can't straighten the ring and little fingers on each hand. Concerning Emily Blunt, even though she was just as lovely as usual, she tried to be whimsical but it didn't really work and her character turned out to be more annoying than actually entertaining. On top of that, these 2 characters didn't have any chemistry whatsoever. Concerning Rupert Grint, his character was even less interesting as he played some kind of stoned spineless version of Ron Weasley. Anyway, to conclude, even though the whole thing was rather harmless, it didn't really work for me and I don't think it is really worth a look.
