Two films tonight, and both of them were scored nearly the same by IMDB, but I’m scoring them quite differently. The first one was another mindless action film. It had potential, but there just wasn’t much beyond the action itself. I expected a little better from Renner and Arterton, but I realized at the end of the film that these parts could have been played by just about anyone, and very little would have changed, so maybe it isn’t their faults, but the writing. I think viewers with shorter attention spans might like this, but even with my own short attention span, I can only muster a 4.5. IMDB fans gave it a 6.1. (running time 1:28)
