The main reason I went to see 15 minutes was because Robert De Niro was in it, thinking I would be delighted by his excellent acting skills. Well, I probably only saw fifteen minutes of outstanding acting from him, no more. Don't take me wrong, De Niro is quite convincing throughout the movie but he did not get the chance to show what he is capable of.

Instead we get Eddie Burns, who in my opinion was monotonous through the show. He contributes little to the spirit of the movie and seems to just be there for the sake of it. Who really steal the show and keep you awake between action scenes are the two east european runaways, actually I think saving the movie.

Maybe I am being to harsh, but what matters is that I did enjoy the movie, it delivers a good dose of comedy and drama around the abundant tense action scenes.
