Quite possibly the most boring movie that I have ever watched.


I tried really hard to get into this movie. I really did. I pushed through about 35-40 minutes, and then finally had to do 3-4 minute fast forwards until the very end.

I got to the last five minutes watched it....and I didn't even care.

Tom Hardy I think tried really hard but I found him boring as well as the entire movie.

I saw it more as a BMW commercial than anything else.


4/10.

This movie is definitely for people who like movies, not people who need to be stimulated by special effects, action and boilerplate dialogue. stick with big studio picks. you may also want to re-evaluate your life.

DanielCraig go *beep* yourself. Further comments about you are a waste of my time.

First, that's not a comment about me. Second *beep* i've lost your attention. Wait dont stop reading this, imagine this comment is being narrated by Jason Statham and there are big explosions and women (or men) in tight fitting outfits......

Can you explain why you thought the movie was good as opposed to personally attacking people for not liking it?

The whole concept of this movie struck me as being a gimmick, made this way simply to set itself apart from other character dramas that deal with either similar or identical conflicts. Some of those movies are great, and some of them are terrible. I wouldn't say this one was either because Hardy brought his A-game. However, I struggled to find a reason to actually care about what was going on.

Illusions Michael. Tricks are something a whore does for money.

As a huge fan of Tom Hardy and cinema in general, I can definitively say this is one of the worst movies I have ever seen.

I agree. I love Tom Hardy too, but this movie was very boring.

You don't sympathize with characters in films or get invested in their actions to you? You don't look at the lighting in a film, or the way that it is shot. You pay no attention to these aspects nor do the others im this board who claim this film to be boring.

What? How can you not find concrete drying to be exciting? I mean it was C6. C6! Not that crap C5 which I wouldn't even wish on a donkey (even if the donkey did play for my team).

Joking aside, here's what I enjoyed about it: from each call we learn a little bit more about him. We learn who he is, what his values are, his history and why all of that led him to make the decision he made that. After spending 1.5 hours of hearing his conversations, we can fill in the rest of his life, we can imagine how he would act in hypothetical situations. I'm not always in love with character dramas, but this one I felt was really poignant. It's your right to not feel the same way, so I don't criticize you for that.

Go watch some transformers. It's filled with big explosions and lots of CGI which seems to be your cup of tea.
These films are for the true cinema lovers.

Thought this film was a complete disappointment and really very overrated.

This turd of a movie is really good at demonstrating which people don't know what quality is. You like this movie? Thanks, I now have a really good assessment of how much your opinion is worth.
