An average movie

For many years, I really wanted to watch this flick but, to be honest, I actually forgot why I was so eager to check it out. Was it because it was starring the lovely (especially at the time) Liv Tyler? Anyway, this movie was a rather unlikely 'Trainspotting' reunion starring both Jonny Lee Miller and Robert Carlyle and it could have been pretty awesome to have also Ewan McGregor and Ewen Bremmer to complete their gang. By the way, I have noticed that on all the promotional material they made us believe that Liv Tyler was actually one of these outlaws but she had nothing to do with them. Anyway, to be honest, I had a rather hard time to care about the whole thing. I mean, I did like the characters, the filthy language, even the anachronic soundtrack didnโ€™t bother me so the whole thing had some potential but, unfortunately, the story was actually rather weak. I mean, Jake Scott, son of the mighty Ridley Scott, tried with his directing debut to cover up this obvious weakness by adding some loud and fancy stuff all other the place but it didnโ€™t really work, I'm afraid. To conclude, I think I'm being rather generous with my rating here, but somehow, I still think it is worth a look though.
