I am shocked that Russell had a part, as the writing was awful. You have four of the best actors out there and the film's highlights are Louis C.K. and Jeremy Renner?
Lawrence is wasted. Bale mumbles so much I was hoping for subtitles and Cooper has the most cliched character of all (minus DeNiro in his 700th stereotyped mob role). Adams tries to save the film, but her lines are so lame. Granted her sideboob is getting a lot of attention, but she's handcuffed by this miserable script.
I could be wrong, but the entire film felt like it was trying to be epic, but all the time I'm thinking "a tighter script and this cast before they were all Hollywood's A-List!" It truly suffered by such lofty expectations and that's a shame. I am truly shocked, because I absolutely adore Lawrence, Adams & Bale, but this movie fell well short of anything I expected.
