Review of The American (2010) by Loren S — 27 May 2011

This movie was not meant for those who can only be entertained by perpetual action sequences, explosions and gravity defying fight scenes.

So, if you enjoy artful and thoughtful cinema spun in dark and brooding tones with a brilliant and beautiful back drop, you should give this one a spin.

Otherwise, if you have the attention span of a cricket, like so many of those who've reviewed this movie before me, stick to your Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles or what ever it us that stimulates you.
