Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

However, it is clear tactics based on the reception "Sicilian defense" - defense by attacking ...Sometimes there's a too intellectual fight and no physical. Only one chase (in the beginning) than lots of talks, murder, and talks again... I wouldn't say that real work of investigators remind endless action, but too many talks make a movie boring.
