Anecdotes
Mark and Christine Holder were the Manager's of Craig Fairbrass and Brian Miller and also Producers on the film and admitted in writing to embezzling their salaries along with the vast majority of the CAST and CREW. When Fairbrass and Miller discovered this they attempted to right the situation but the Holders defamed, slandered and attacked them with false and malicious accusations that forced Miller/Fairbrass to sue the Holders in Federal Court. Both won major settlements against the Holders.

Gaffes
Whilst being notified of his daughter's death, Lex's commanding officer tells him that the body is still in LA and that the authorities need him "to sign off on it before it can be shipped back to London for burial".

However, upon leaving Afghanistan he flies back to the UK, believing that his daughter's body is coming home the next day, when his friend Nick visits and tells him that "Her body's still in Los Angeles".

I wanted to like this movie. But I just couldn't.

There was some promise in this film. But I have to say it got buried under poor writing, unimaginative cinematography, and a heavy-handed approach to film-making and storytelling.

Leto performed well, given the fact they handed him an impossible character. One which is supposed to connect with the audience on an emotional level, while also being a detached psychopathic killer. Believe it or not, there is a way to do this engagingly and 'correctly'. Leon the Professional comes to mind. They didn't do that here.

The overly-long transition scenes were a poor attempt at pacing. The acting rarely managed to deliver the goods, and the ending was trite and unimpressive. However, they clearly splurged on the scoring which was a welcome surprise. It's a Japanese lovefest all the way around, giving us all the the things traditionally associated with the country. But while I appreciate paying homage to an incredibly unique and beautiful culture, I don't think staining it with the horrific crimes of a small subset of the population was entirely appropriate.

Bottom line? I don't think this movie is worth your time. And I'm sorry to say that. It really had some potential, it was so unrealized.
