Many of the extreme stunts and locations appear computerized, lending a gimmicky sense the scenes. The script tends to be heavy-handed, relying largely on dialogue to convey emotions, instead of leaving the storytelling to Freeman and Nicholson. Where improvisation would have lent a natural air to the time that Cole...
