Hollywood is dying a slow and agonising death.

Let's hope we have seen the last of Francis Ford Coppola. He was better in the 70's and he should have stayed there.

This glorious train wrack has no beginning, no middle and no end. It was like watching a fancy costume ball without any cloths. All flaff, no substance.

But saying that does not mean the story could have presented more successfully in more experienced hands, such as James Cameron, for example.

At the end, we are treated on of the most boring, senseless features of all times.

Even the glorious cast can not save it. What a waste of some truly great actors.

Another nail in Hollywood coffin.

Two of the nicest actors in Hollywood been dragged to do this movie, and I for the life of me I do not know why. I like both of them, plus Hanna as well - but what an awful script. This movie was written by either an 11-year-old or the cheapest AI software out there. It has no logic, no coherent text, no real plot and no resolution. I can not believe such a movie was allowed to happen. Maybe it is a sign of the times, where brains no longer function anymore. Abort, abort, abort.

I hope that someone will come out and explain why was this movie granted a budget (obviously high budget) and why such cast was assembled. For what? I need answers.

I was not expecting much from this film, but the casting was so good I had to see it through. It is an old fashion run & hide spy movie - but again, quite fun! I did enjoy most of it.

However for the life of me I will question the lead cast. I do not find Ms Bryce Dallas Howard interesting, charismatic or entertaining. She is certainly the weakest part of the movie. What a shame. Why was she cast?

Well the only answer I have in my mind is that someone in Hollywood is trying to promote her - as they always do - and give her some parts.

The film is actually a solid 7/10 but I was not able to ignore the lead, thus 5/10 seem to justify the rating better.
