The International
March 5, 2009
If you’re planning to watch a movie, cross “The International” out.
Watching a movie involves finding a relevance, some connection, something to ponder about, or even just plainly for entertainment. “The International” just failed to do any of that.
When a movie is all what its poster says and nothing more, you can’t help but feel tricked (say, can I have my money back?). Sorry to Clive’s fans out there but the movie was just too dragging. If you have seen one of its posters, do not expect anything more. It’s all been laid out. They attempted to insert a few complications, which made it even a harder-to-watch movie.
It started bad. The script was very lazily written and though there were a few exciting action moments, the whole 2-hour run was just too hard to handle.
The film revolves around two investigators who were following a conspiracy involving the International Bank of Business and Credit. TheĀ IBBC was suspected to be involved in illegal activities including providing arms to third world countries. They travel from one place to another to follow their leads and suspects until finally killing the CEO of the bank. The end.
