Clean

We watched it so you don't have to.

Agree with other reviewers , the first half is decent enough. Has a bit of story & acting good, but the second has the script /action scenes of a BMovie & you can foresee the events in every detail very easily.

Do something else with your time.

A really entertaining movie.

AB is simply impressive in the titular role and carries some proper brooding throughout the movie.

The movie strips all the wow factor from the action/violence, making its use much more effective and captivating.

Top fun :)

Yes it's not a new story, man wanting quiet life after being a killer, thusly returning to his graphic nature. However it is slow for a reason, it's Brody he's a proper actor, not an all action hero, he wants to convey reason and not just show up basically having a tantrum over some injustice. The middle section is padded as are all these type of films, what do the critics expect? All out reflection or all out war? It's a better than most big budget movies and kills an easy hour and thirty, with not having to ponder over where the movie will go.

Not a bad movie. Not great either. Generic storyline, basic plot. Good acting, pacing and music make it enjoyable. I wouldn't go in expecting too much. It's a 6/10. Would have been a 5 without the music. The girl actor is good too.

I wouldn't pay too much attention to the extremely negative reviews for this movie, nor the extremely positive. Clean isn't that bad, nor is it an Oscar winning movie. It is entertaining though, and that's what it's all about for me. The story is well told, even though I think the flashbacks the main character has could have been done better. It's rather slow paced in the first half but towards the end it's all getting more interesting with some good action scenes. Adrien Brody is always convincing when he's playing his characters and in Clean he did a good job again. This role fitted him well. The rest of the cast was also convincing so I really don't get what people disliked about it. It's not a movie for everyone, you just need to like that kind of stories, crime/dramas turning into violence, and that's fine by me.
