Looks wonderful, seems interesting.

I wanted to watch it in the weekend, but the people I was with didnt want to, because they dislike Action movies.

It's playing here but I still haven't been to see it.
Maybe sometime this week. Some of my friends saw it and really liked it, but then they're guys.. they like anything with guns and blood.

The trailer really got me hooked, and I was surprised to see Alicia Keys in it. I have high hopes for this movie, and I hope I'm not let down. Definitely on my must-see list! :)

I saw this a couple of days ago and it was too violent for my taste, to be honest. Too many gunshots and way too much blood flying in the air. The whole movie was just filled with blood and shooting.

The story was good though, there were a couple of twists in the plot. I usually find that these movies involving the mob and FBI are unpredictable. This one wasn't any different.

Alicia Keys' acting was pretty good. She definitely pulled off her character well. Never really saw her as a "tough girl" but she convinced me with the part she played.

Overall rating: 6/10 (mainly cos I'm not into these kind of movies, my guy friends all loved it)

Just watched a movie for the director Joe Carnahan, that makes me more interested in watching this one.

No wonder Ray Liotta is appearing here, though he was in the other movie.


Guess the movie is starting today here in Oman.

I hated it. It was disturbing.

I'll give it 2/5 just coz I liked the ending.

This is one of these crazy movies where you cant expect of what is coming next or what happened/happening.
There were some off scenes. But, after all I enjoyed it.

Though nothing much for the acting, maybe except for Ryan Reynolds.

4/5.

Non-sense, no story, no nothing!
A mere waste of time and money!
