149 - The International


The scene above is where Eleanor Whitman (Naomi Watts) gets run over by an escaping suspect...which is one of those moments that made me pause a bit. I mean......usually the lead is able to jump out of the way....but here she actually gets run over (she's ok by the way). Anyway, I think there wasn't enough in the film to support Eleanor or Louis' (Clive Owen) reputations. While Tom Tykwer presented action well like he did before (Run Lola Run), I think there was a lack of depth in the story. A bonus is seeing much of the Autostadt (quite a treat) that was used for the bank's headquarters.
