When you watch movies like these, you have to go into it for what it is! It is not going to be a BLOCKBUSTER it is just an action movie - sit back, relax and enjoy!

w/oRemorse could well be a decent brainless flick, but the criticism comes from it wasting such a brilliant property.
Like the rage against Dune, or my personal rage against Bonfire of the Vanities, or the chronic timidity about finally adapting Confederacy of Dunces, . . . and certainly the last season of GoT.
Some works are brilliant enough that people feel there is a duty to honor the material when adapting to film or miniseries, etc.
