Roger Ebert - I presume you can find his site for yourself - provides the following useful information that suggests I may be unfairly tarring a perfectly competent director. He explains that the incompetence on hand here "may not be entirely Hirschbiegel's fault. Warner Bros., the movie's distributor, didn't approve of his original version, and brought in the Wachowski siblings to rewrite it and James McTeigue ("V for Vendetta") to direct their revisions. All three served time on the "Matrix" movies: just the team you'd want to add a little incomprehensible chaos."<BR/><BR/>Okay, nuff said, but until we get a director's cut - and I doubt we will - this doesn't matter much at all. Apologies to Hirschbiegel for having assumed HE was to blame for this sludge, tho'. <BR/><BR/>A.Allan MacInnishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05394301776870727673noreply@blogger.com
