Review of The Limey (1999) by Bonnie I — 13 Jan 2008
I found this difficult to watch and if it wasn't on so late I still wouldn't have wanted to watch the whole thing. It was nauseating because the time line was all over the place. Not that it was hard to follow but it gets a bit much when it's jumping from present to past to future and to any one of those again for no real reason, even being in present tense while jumping to past and present, then not only playing scenes over again but also playing it from different angles. As if trying to be a cool artsy movie but just being nauseating instead.
Mind you if it hadn't of been nauseating I still wouldn't cared to have watched it to the end seeing as it's a guy whose daughter dies and he basically goes to get revenge. Not exactly original and not exactly riveting.
