They have smooth gimballing cameras, they have steady shots of close ups, they have the ability. Yet they chose to wiggle the frame about as if it tells us _just_ _how_ _real_ the dialog or action is.

Great potential, poor execution.

No one seems to think it's eerily inhuman when the protagonist fails to succumb to what should have been fatal blows. Instead, they remain, unfazed by sorcerous and eldritch powers to continue fighting. "Hey, I just unloaded a full magazine of .357 into the chest of my opponent, I can see the holes and blood in his chest, but I think once my gun is empty I'll step up and punch him, my fist being superior to a half rounds of 357 mag." Next villain, "I just saw my gang buddy unload his gun into this guy, then punch him, then get killed. I guess I'll step up.an punch him, too."

The stars come because the protagonist is a fine looking male specimen.

Yes, we love Harm, doing Harm things. And that gets us the positive 50% of this rating. Then we get the Keystone Kops guarding the head of state of the second most powerful nation on Earth at the time, the -50%. From Pentagon spy infiltration and exfiltration to accessing Secret Service guarded events, our antagonist is the James Bond/Jason Borne of the assassin world, yet it's a Navy pilot that's able to pierce his veil of subterfuge, keening out the ne'er-do-well's plans and also bypassing the Keystone Kops, sorry, I meant Secret Service security to gain personal access, while armed, to the Russian President. Boy howdy, a truly belly-laugh inducing episode.

Hollywood never gets this right, never. Be it police officer, lawyer, or close relative of one of these, _everyone_ talks to the police. Am I the only person that has heard the Miranda warning (well at least the TV version) a gazillion times? So I'm just gobsmacked when those employed in the legal system belligerently confront police detective with protestations of innocence and incessant blabbing in "interview" rooms.

Here's the skinny.

"I wish to exercise my Constitutional right to not testify against myself and respectfully request you cease questioning me until I have legal representation from an attorney. Any answers I give until then will only be in response to those required to maintain my health and safety, and in no way, shape or fashion should be construed as bring in connection to the event under investigation."
