The International ** Ugh!

I like Clive Owen, but 'The International' was just not very good!!!

He's an Interpol agent working with a NY D.A. agent (Naomi Watts), trying to bring down a bank that is helping to supply arms to third world countries.

The whole plot of it is large... almost too large. It makes you see the operatings of the world from a 'big picture'. So there's the big picture, and then there's the smaller picture with our characters and what they were dealing with. The problem is that the smaller picture was not developed enough. Their small plot within the bigger one was not complete. (I'm sure a lot of pertinent information is on the cutting room floor! Two hours as is!) There were lots of holes. You know I'm a fan of the complex plot lines, but this one just didn't come together at all for me.

It's ok for the kids except for the killings and gun fights! ??
No sex or anything remotely sexy.... Not even the two hot stars!

If you must see all of Clive Owen, you can pick it up below.
