one (of many) things wrong with this film


virtually every scene is so dark (literally), like someone turned down the brightness to the minimum on the screen. this has to be one of the drabest films ever; other films with lots of action at night manage to actually have some color in them rather than just a bunch of shades of grey. The daytime scenes are as dreary, like they take place under a dark sky before a thunderstorm. This film feels like you are watching it through a welding mask. It is like a black and white film but without the dramatic contrasts. the only exception is the opening scenes in Africa which are the most entertaining of the film, when your film starts to go downhill after 6 minutes it is kind of a problem.
