Scott Speedman woefully bad in this movie
Scott Speedman was badly miscast and badly directed in this movie. He's supposed to be with the elite SIS, so he would've seen some bad stuff already. But he freaks out like a little girl at a homicide scene that isn't even gruesome, and then he's tapping his fingers all over the place, on surfaces and tables. Maybe the actor thought this "looking nervous" finger-tapping was some kind of method-wonderful idea, but no real cop would ever do that -- corrupt a crime scene while deliberately tapping his fingerprints all over everything. Speedman also should've gone out on some ride-alongs with real cops and seen how they carried themselves. He charges into dangerous scenes like a lumbering kid at the mall leaving himself completely exposed, not like a cop, who would be careful and watch his back. Totally bad acting and bad casting.
