A sprawling, overlong, sometimes messy, crime story from Olivier Megaton, adapted from a graphic novel I believe. It doesn’t always work but there’s enough here to be entertaining. It criminally under-utilizes Sharlto Copley (really don’t even understand the point of his character, at all) and even Ramirez’s character is weirdly shallow to the point you can’t comprehend any of his motivations.

This is a better rating than I expected given all the bad WOM I’ve seen about this movie.

Honestly, I started out hating it but maybe by the end I’d forgotten enough of the beginning to go easier on it.
