Compared to similar films of the 80s and 90s its dull and poe faced.
It's like 4 weddings and a funeral made by some one who had a cold and was a bit upset.

The Social Network is a boring film, Collateral is amazeballs.
Quote: Renegade Carpark @ August 22 2012, 11:54 PM BSTWait, I've got a bona fide winner for a decent action thriller in the 2000s -
Taken
Grosse Point Blanc is aces.
Does The Prestige count as a thriller? Because I loved that.

I liked that even if its hilariously bad.
The Siege was a great techno thriller.

I don't even want to get into why that film is so bloody ridiculous.

The Social Network nearly put me into a coma. Collateral didn't have any character development and I couldn't care less who lived and died in the end.
3 kings is a very enjoyable action romp.

It's the scene when thingy is attacking the boat and killing everyone. And paedo sheik is desperately trying to shag the girls, like a bond villain trying to fire up the doom bomb.
I only saw Taken recently because my sister insisted it was amazing she chastised me for predicting everything that was about to happen. It's like having a superpower watching films with people who have only seen shit ones.

I felt the same way about Inception. Nice to look at, but the story was so pants and the characters so mundane, that I just sat back and enjoyed the Hans Zimmer soundtrack.
I did enjoy Scorsese's homage to Hitchcock - Shutter Island.

Just me then
I haven't seen Shutter Island, but I'm now wary if you think it's good. What with Mr and Mrs Smith...
