Even though it’s a Guy Ritchie film, I really enjoyed it. Shades of Gladiator in bits. You can see where he’s taken some ideas from, Gladiator, Behind Enemy Lines etc.
still, bottom line is that it was thoroughly enjoyable

Watched half of this while eating dinner. So much silly stuff packed in to a short time frame.

Kind of entertaining if incredibly shallow, and when it’s meant to be realistic it’s difficult to take serious with people running out in to the open like it’s a computer game, stealthy kills when there could be 5 more around the corner, and walking out in to the open 2 seconds after finding out the enemy is looking at the building they’re in.

Undecided whether I’ll finish it off tomorrow.
