Viewing Notes

It might as well be called Bradley Cooper’s Blue-Eye Bonanza. It’s a very average movie that really doesn’t entertain until the last 20 minutes. It has a promising premise, but the movie just never goes far enough, from the action the effects to the plot, to ever truly captivate. Also, the movie tragically underuses Anna Friel. She would’ve been much better as Bradley’s main squeeze, as opposed to the blonde milquetoast they tossed up there.
