    While the movie does a decent job of providing plenty of suspense the clichéd I'm-a-wreckless-badass attitude that the main character had to portray was just boring and overplayed (possible really just overwritten). The plot was pretty thin and I felt like I was watching one of the many canned TV shows that exist today; antag + protag + personal history = generic story all wrapped up in a current events shell. I really don't get what the Oscar hype is all about for this flick.
