Unthinkable


What Hari Says...
I checked this movie out because in an obsessive moment I put all of Brandon Routh's movies in my netflix queue.  Brandon, aka. new Superman, was in it for about 3 minutes total, boo.  Seriously, how hard is it to just take off your shirt?  Come on!!    However, I was pleasantly surprised to see that Carrie Ann Moss was in it.  I like her.  Also, and it took me a while, but Michael Sheen is in it.  I don't understand how he can be so freaking smoking hot as a lycan in Underworld fucking 27 whatever, and look like a CPA, competitive crossword puzzler, in every other movie he is in.  But beyond that he is a good actor and I buy him in what he does.  The flaw in this movie is that it went on for too long.  It could have been 20 to 30 minutes shorter and I wouldn't have missed a thing.  The torture was cool, but Sam, my man L. Jackson should stick to comic book movies.  I'm not sure I really see him as a real person anymore.  I don't believe it.  I know Jack HATES him.  But I like him as super villains or other fantasy characters.  Not as a real dude, who I'm supposed to believe could live next door to me.  Nope sorry, wouldn't happen, couldn't happen.  Unthinkable started out good, it held my attention until it got monotonous and repetitive, then it just got wacky.  I know the final outcome was supposed to be "unthinkable", but by then I was ready to nuke the whole lot of them to get it over with!  
I'd give this movie a 5.  It had some good, it had some bad.  Ehhhhh.....
