*Before I start this post can I warn all prospective viewers that there are some scenes of an upsetting and disturbing nature so caution is advised when viewing.*
So my friends have been bugging me to watch this film for a
while now, but it being an 18, and me being a wuss I had to psyche myself up to
watch it; and now I’m really confused…
It started off pretty ‘normal’ for a gangster film, you know
people dying and stuff, but then it got REALLY strange. It got to the point
where I found it hard to understand the plotline and there was just too much
violence for my liking. The plot line was non-linear which just added to my
confusion and I simply couldn’t grasp how Bruce Willis’ character fitted into
the story until half way through the film. Although, despite the confusion, I did
enjoy the on-screen relationship between John Travolta and Samuel L Jackson,
they had a real chemistry and brought some well needed comedic moments to an
otherwise heavy film.
Sadly, I did not enjoy this film as there was simply too
much violence. I would not recommend it to those with a sensitive disposition as
I believe they would find it too disturbing. However, for those of you who like
action I would say this is one to watch as it would be right up your street.
Score 2/10
Bonus Fact: Samuel L. Jackson racked up a total of 27 mother f*ckers throughout the film... impressive
