That Sam Riley guy looks like one of the dancers in Smash.

Also, I remember watching a black and white foreign version of this. It was interesting and a lesson on to not mess with stuff that isn't yours. I may check this one out, however, the cast doesn't peak my interest.

Basically a waste of its cast and premise.

Bit a rubbish movie. Statham, Rourke, 50 Cent and Winstone all have small roles and the main story is centered around Sam Riley. Some of the duel scenes are good and a bit suspenseful, but it is largely forgettable. Statham is wasted here, and the ending is rather abrupt with no real meaning. Not that there has to be a meaning to it - life is simply shit sometimes.

Rourke shows a bit of muscle here, and I was surprised how ripped he was. 50 Cent displays some awful, awful acting. Anyway, glad I've seen it. I'm working my way through those Statham's that I've happened to miss over the years. Not many left now; Safe, Revolver and London.
