Review of The November Man (2014) by Axet — 25 Apr 2015

When Pierce Brosnan was playing 007, he said in interviews he wanted to do an edgy darker version, even R rated to get back to the spy thriller's origins. Maybe Daniel Craig's is that more or less, and supposedly this movie is Pierce's attempt years later. Unfortunately for him, it's a disaster.

Phony, cheap, disjointed, incoherent, mind numbingly boring and poor style all come together here.

Note to the director: the hand held quick zooms and over-used over-the-top blood spatter helped ruin the poorly scripted film.
