One of the best mainstream movies of 2011. A real thriller surrounded by slow and boring action dramas. The story is very intriguing, I was bound to the screen in the first half. In the second, the tension falls off a bit, but still enough of it to keep you interested. Stylish screenplay and great acting, Bradley Cooper was on par with De Niro in this one. I was a bit surprised when I saw “Virgin Produced”. Turns out this company also creates movies and does it well.
