The main actor, Jude Law - as English as they come (perhaps not quite authentically English as a Northern Englander like me - but we can argue that point another day) - and here he is playing a Scot! What on earth is going on with Hollywood and in society at large when actors can portray people who don't look or sound like them? This is cultural appropos or something like that - what I mean is as much as we shouldn't have the comedian Alan Carr playing Nelson Mandela then we shouldn't have English actors playing Scots. Are we all agreed? - MLK said we should all be treated equally but really we should all stay in our segregated lanes and play the parts that fit our identity (good luck to you then Trans people - who will get one role per decade).
It started out as a gripping film noir but descended into a trippy, hard-to-believe, sham. Extremely disappointing given the thrilling start. It tried to inject drama by continually playing the "let's go back in time" stunt. Lesson for those involved - just watch "A Simple Plan" - that's how to do a modern Film Noir.
