    This held me for quite a while but the soundtrack and over-action got too silly.
    The measure of a watchable film for me is how long it holds me; this one was about 60% until the soundtrack and the daft action got to me. The soundtrack is incessant drumbeat; sometimes there are layered sounds such as "music", police siren, sounds of actors, etc. but the music conquers all for its constant boring beat. The action from before halfway got really silly; we were supposed to believe that some hired guns would have sub-machine guns and other weapons as if going to war, and acting as if that was the case when it was just a trio of scientists they were up against. Really this was 2 out of 10 because of the above but somehow I was held, so there must have been something more interesting than the usual ... possibly some reasonable acting.
