Even if you have seen Channing Tatum before, his performances are so bland and uninspiring that you will forget you saw him in anything as soon as the film finishes.

Here is his IMDB page just in case you want to verify he is in fact a man. ;)

Psst, you need to correct Gina's name in the third paragraph too. ;)

Back from Cineworld Glasgow.

For an action film and with all the stars in it and a big name director you would had expected more. Our film didn't have sound for the first three minutes so they had to start again. Wish they made it soundless like The Artist cos it was not worth having audio. There was no plot and why would she tell the story to Scott her "hostage". It was illogical and stupid. In fact there were many things she did that were silly.

[spoiler]Why when she was outdriving the "LEOs" (Law Enforcement Officers) did a deer finally made her give herself up?
Why did she have a soft spot for AAron when they only met 8 days ago?
What was with Ewan McGregor's accent? Could they not get an American to act as Kenneth?[/spoiler]

Another film which did not live up to it's expectation. All the fighting looked so staged. And the acting was too wooden for me. 3/10

Thought this was disappointing. I can see why it sat on the shelf for over a year waiting for release.

It should have sat there indefinitely.
