^ Yeah, for me, very little worked in that movie. As you say, one of the main action scenes was that annoying drunken face off, then you had Tony and War Machine blowing up Mickey Rourke in about 30 seconds. And great actors like Rourke, Cheadle and Sam Rockwell getting sod all to do.
I do have faith that the writer of Lethal Weapon, Last Boy Scout and Kiss Kiss Bang Bang can give us action and character.
