Policy
As a matter of "policy", I watch every Danny Boyle film that comes on the market.
Today, DB came up with a complicated mind fucker called
There is a lot of action and some scenes that had me grabbing onto my chair. One gasper. Out loud. Sort of GOL. Like LOL only a gasp, well you get it.
If you watch this see if you find the one that got to me.
There is a stolen painting, there is a head injury where a critical party to the heist is knocked into amnesia and so on.
One question is whether any of this or part of this or just some of this or something else really happened or is it a memory triggered by a clever hypnotist.
He does keep us guessing and, as it turns out, the clues are there for the finding.
The real question is whether it adds up to anything.
I am not going to stop watching every Danny Boyle film, no matter what, even though this is one of those "no matter whats".
The action is so fast I am not sure but what I got put into a trance too.
But it deserves a 3 out of Netflix5.
Oh. It has Vincent Cassel in it, one of my favorite bad guys who isn't. He doesn't really get to do his stuff, too much going on. Or not.
