Overview The Tourist :(


Brief Summary - Frank [Johnny Depp] is an American tourist in Europe, a chance encounter with Elise [Angelina Jolie] makes him a target for a mob boss and the authorities. Their ‘budding romance’ thrusts them both into a very unexciting game of cat and mouse.

Rating – on a scale of 1 to 10 [10 being the highest] this dreary dozer gets a 5.5

Movie Strengths – Location, location, location, watching this made me want to visit Venice …

Movie Weaknesses – lackluster action, lame pick up lines, mismatched chemistry and I could continue but I'll digress.

Final Thoughts - This movie FALLS FLAT because Johnny Depp's performance was not up to par! He is a good actor but this performance was not his best. I am also upset because whenever A.Jolie and J.Depp star in a film you would expect a certain quality of performance which was severely LACKING hence this harsh review! Maybe if two B-List actors were the leads I may [I stress may] not have hated this film.
