I think Kenneth Branagh does a good job as a director but a better job as an actor. The film could have been longer and little more interesting. As a action thriller goes there's a very small amount of action present in the film. The script is filled with finance terms which can be a little boring to hear. Its more like a finical thriller than an action thriller with a bit of drama added in. This film is kind of a let down since you have an all star cast basically but its not all that interesting. Kevin Costner's part in the film seems almost unnecessary and slightly bland. Keira Knightley wasn't all that good as well, I felt like they needed to cast someone else. Chris pine was alright but didn't really like the way he acted in the film. The direction was fine but needed improvement everything happens too fast causing the viewer to feel almost cheated. Watch this if you like anyone that's in the movie.
 
2/5
