Kings: Los Angeles em Chamas

Meh. An important and interesting story that is still extremely relevant these days, told out of a rather unspectacular and to some degrees unbelievable perspective. Yes the film stars two very talented actors: Halle Berry and Daniel Craig however their roles are rather supporting and their performances not really stunning. Berry overacts easily and there is no motivation no explanation in her character. Craig is okay actually, another twist of character for him, however the development of his character makes no sense at all and there is also no explanation or anything for it. I think they just cut a LOT out of the movie. Really lousy writing that also continues with the plot.. there is not much of it, and the bits and pieces we get presented are absolutely unbelievable and often make no sense. The writer and director never stays true and honest with his characters and that is why the film fails. You really only get emotionally impacted by the film and that is during the short footage sequence at the end when the film is dedicated to some victim. Otherwise a missed opportunity for sure.
