Kind of torn on this. On the one hand at times it comes across as the poor man's Tarantino (makes sense, written and directed by Roger Avary, who worked with QT on Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction, for which he won an Academy Award), however there were moments of some darkly fun humor and Crispin Glover was great, playing a psychotic French assassin. Don't quite, however, understand why Nina Dobrev was also French as it doesn't really play into the plot whatsoever other than perhaps as an excuse for Avary to use some French music. Otherwise, Luke Bracey was alright and I did like Clé Bennett in his smaller part. I don't know, was hardly terrible but also doesn't hit the mark overall. Giving it a **2.75/5**.
