Comments:

Samuel L. Jackson definitely awsome playing his part ^_^. The movie is quite nice for a drama movie, but absolutely boring as an action movie. One thing i like, the end is unpredictable, however the story line is just simple. In the movie Tom is said to do some dirty works for his previous boss, and he also in "the list" made by Norcut, where everybody in the list has received money from him, i saw nothing linked to this. Norcut is just missing, and everybody forgets about the list. That's absolutely weird, oh well, what can i say. I don't like the movie verymuch tough it's not worst movie ever. A bit boring but still go ahead if you like to watch ^_^

Fun facts:
  • As Tom is sitting on the bed thinking of his wife he reaches under the bed for a box and the clock in the background reads 11:40. We then see a close up of Tom smelling her perfume and the clock now reads 11:38.

The plot of this film was too weak that I didn't managed to keep my interest for long time. So after watching the first half I planned to stop watching it further.
