Ratings and reviews

I Thought This Movie Was Going To Be Really Good, But Instead It Was Really Bad! The Film Was Too Short, There Wasn't Enough Action & The Storyline Was Bad. On Top Of That Tom Hardy & Shia LaBeouf's Love Interest Were Fugly Looking, At Least I Thought So? However The Actors Did Give A Phenomenal Performance, Despite The Bad Directing Of The Film. Trust Me, Save Your Money Do Not Buy Or Rent This Movie! Just Like Superman Returns, The Actors Were Fine, But The Story Was Badly Written!

This movie is so boreing that the violence catches you so off guard its like wtf? It sucked. For women like me who are sensitive and easily offended, this movie has a rape scene. I didn't finish it...couldn't finish it.

It felt like it was missing something. I know it was based on a true story but hollywood could have done extra. I was always waiting on shia character to do more to be more proactive but it never came
