...contrast, Green’s writing is considerably weaker. The script is not particularly deep and relies too much on exaggerated emotional outbursts. This is a bit unexpected as Green’s most popular film to date, 2006??s “Hatchet,” was primarily buoyed by its inventive screenplay, which played popular horror conventions for laughs...

On the council, these nations, and the other non-permanent nations, will not have veto power and will almost certainly be dominated by the same powers that have led power blocs within...
