What I Liked About This Movie

Maybe I am crazy but the one thing I kept noticing is that in nearly every scene of the movie there are windows. I don’t know if the use of them is intentional or if the cinematographer just has a window fetish but it is an interesting visual element. Besides that the only other notable thing about The International is the kick ass shootout in the Guggenheim Museum (New York). Not only is the setting visually pleasing the layout of it is perfect for the big action scene of the movie.

What Didn’t Work For Me

The International is not really exciting.

The International Photo

There is so much location jumping and it ends up making the movie too complex to be entertaining. Making matters worse it also feels really long. By the time you get to the end you probably wont care happens which is good because there is no resolution. After I finished the movie it felt like I had just needlessly wasted a few hours.

Should You Watch This Movie?

Skip to the cool shootout then turn it off after it is over.
