Review of The International (2009) by Malcolm D — 16 Dec 2010

I?ve seen so many better thrillers than The International, thrillers that build up and hit hard, The International doesn?t build up and what action there is, is good but infrequent. The conclusion of the film is good in a broad sense but it doesn?t rectify the wall of dialogue that plagues the first half of the film and what?s with the inconsistencies in character motives?

The International is all right but the final product could have been so much better if the focus had been more on the characters or action and less about bank conspiracies which are less original.
