Exterritorial

Casting-Acting 3/10: Probably shopped around for actors at a Walmart parking lot, cause they struggle to convey believable joy, sorrow, or even anger-leaving key moments feeling hollow. Can't really decide who was the worst, cause they were all pretty bad.

Realism 3/10: Borderline stupid. Nothing makes sense throughout the movie. For example, do you remember when someone broke into your room, pinned you down and you got a clean chance to leave and call for help, but you decided... what the heck.. lets stay with the stranger and help her for no apparent reason.

Plot 4/10: Could be interesting, but it's not. It has so many holes and unrealistic events that makes it hard to keep it interesting.

Dialogues 2/10: I could probably give it a go, and write better lines than what the movie writers managed to come up with.

Choreography 3/10: Well... it's bad. Unwatchable really... just skip through to the next idiotic scene.

I don't want to give anything away other than to say this was a decent thriller. The only annoying thing was seeing a woman with small stature successfully take down several dozen 200 pound soldier men throughout the film with her fists and physical training.

Other than that silliness, it was fun, the characters were decent and I kept looking at Dougray Scott and imagining what he would've been like playing the roll of Wolverine if only fate hadn't changed his filming schedule and forcing Hugh Jackman to replace him in the part.

As for this film, I won't give away if the twist is all mental illness or if it's just like a more epic Flightplan plot and I'll let you find out for yourself. Decent fast paced film and good performances from Dougray and the rest of the cast.

The plot has a basic missing child desperation and rage basis. Good fodder for the action junkie who doesn't care about authenticity or realism. If you wait for cinematography that contains outdoor adventure or sweeping scenery, it doesn't happen. Most of the story happens in the same building, much of which consists of windowless walls. The English dubbing over foreign actors lack of lip sync is easy to get past and better than subtitles. U. S. Marines with full beards and 70 year old medals makes it kind of a joke early on for those of us who scrutinize such things. The protocol at a US foreign embassy was a bit ridiculous and at this point I was losing my enthusiasm. The new release hype draws you in with higher hopes than they deliver.

The story line has been done before so basically it's the delivery that can make it a good or bad movie. In this case, the action, the emotions, and overall acting was spot on.

First off the main character is painted as a grueling soldier and through the movie you can see why but at the same token she takes a beating! She you praise her for her determination and strength.

When it comes to the story, it was well written. At first it was corny at best ( bad wording I know) but then in the end it ties in nicely and everything is explained with no loose ends. So I won't spoil anything but just watch till the end and you can see how it plays!

So yes, recommend on a rainy day.

I think watching this movie is anyway a complete waste of time. They make you feel the USA consulate in Germany is less secure than any supermarket in the city! So disappointing.

I guess the idea of the movie was really nice but I guess if could have been in a more "realistic" professional way!

The actors did their best I guess but they needed more support from the director.

What I liked about the movie is the originality of the movie , so idea was somehow new and creative. It could have been utilized in a much better way. But we unfortunately felt so disappointed by the sequence of events.
