Broken City
Cert: 15 / 108 mins / Dir. Allen Hughes
What a mess. Director Hughes, writer Brian Tucker and editor Cindy Mollo don't seem to know the difference between "complex", "convoluted" and "makes no sense".
Broken City fits neatly into one of these categories.
Elsewhere, CZJ looks thoroughly embarrassed as she delivers dialogue written as part of a teenager's homework project. Too many minor characters are platespun ineffectively, and the whole thing screams contractual obligation.
Some nice ideas, horribly executed.
Kinda.
Occasionally.
No.
Telly.
Yes.
No.
No.
