Ratings and reviews

This broken and incomplete mess should be called An Ordinary Movie. The only question it asks is, How does such a film get made? Have you ever seen an insect that only partially emerges from its cocoon? This movie is like that, the same sad waste of potential. The actors are fine, the historical context is rich, but the plot, the writing and the editing seem like the work of film school students. This film may set a record for number of dramatic climaxes that fail to materialize. Spoiler: Nothing thrilling occurs in this "Thriller."

Good
