For some reason all of the Top Reviewers at IMDB seem to think that the movie needed more action because it's supposed to be an action film. As if this movie should be called the transporter 7 then they could've given it a higher rating. This is the type of movie that makes me wish I'd read the book. What a great story well acted it left me wanting more. Terrific film judge for yourself don't listen to these jerks. They think they're film critics.

I kept waiting for something exciting or even mildly interesting to happen...and it never did. Mostly self indulgent acting and banality.

I saw the negative user reviews and thought, "They could be wrong. I like the actors; I like the genre. This must be better than they're saying" Nope. They were right. So much wasted potential. It's watchable but the way they tell the story isn't that great and neither is the ending.

I am a huge fan of Matthias and Joel, but the movie is all about Matthias character. Don't read the bad reviews, it is a good movie, slow pace kind, and Matthias acting nails the attention. A solid 7.

This movie fell short when it could of been great. It was armed with a good story, actors and setting all lined up. Unfortunately, it just didn't formulate. The film started well then about half way in becomes dull. I just expected more, especially when it came to the ending. When all said and done this movie is was just ok.

I've no idea why this has received such poor reviews, I thought it was very good. The acting was great all round and the photography is excellent.. if you like the films of James Gray then you'll probably like this.. worth a watch

Another east coast tough guy / mobster movie but with very little depth. The acting is good for the most part. As is the filming. It's just the plot and script takes you nowhere for way too long.

The acting was good, and the production value is solid. Overall it just didn't have much going on, but it wasn't THAT boring. It seemed like it would pick up action wise, but it really didn't. It kind of reminded me of the Drop with Tom Hardy, but just not as good.
