They had a great cast and director. So, with that being said, it should have been a classic. I bet anyone a billion dollars that I could have made this movie one of the greatest, like Goodfellas turned out. So in your opinion, was this the director's fault, poor editing, or the producers? Please discuss:)
shareThe script was AWFUL. They tried to do too much and none of the pieces they added connected.
Plus it was very confusing in the beginning when you think they are all cops and then slowly realize only 3 of them were.
It wanted to be Training Day meets Inside Man, but failed on all fronts.
They had SOMETHING, but the script needed a ton of work still. I wonder how they got all those actors. Still, the direction sucked. Didnt get any good acting scenes. Nothing at all. Nothing to work with.
That does not feel like the original ending. Maybe I'm wrong, but it definitely feels like someone hacked this movie apart in the editing room. Hillcoat did an okay job directing it. Some of the details are very nice. But the script was so-so and the editing ruined any chance this movie had of being watchable. I mean, that ending is an atrocity.
