R-epetitive, scene after scene
O-bvious in all ways
U-biquitously generic structure
N-ary a doubt of the outcome
D-erivative of better Gambling Films
E-vasive characters
R-epleat with phoned-in performances
S-ame old stuff, different day
I didn't like it.

This morning's Hollywood Reporter has a production still from "Ronin", a "Submitted-for-Your-Approval" thingus...
Now, I saw this piece of nonsense and I'll tell ya, paying for this ad MUST be buried in SOME contract SOMEWHERE cause they COULDN'T wilfully be serious (unless the Globes or Oscars now offers a "Best Car Chase" figurine, which this Movie deserves).
There's nothing really WRONG with "Ronin" if you overlook the worst case of MacGuffin-itis (this is the correct spelling, look to the source) I've seen lately; a seemingly "complex" structure that is frighteningly easy to predict; a loconic "European" pace that mistakes Insight in favor of "thinking man action picture" (which it is NOT).
"Ronin" falls on its face every time an attempt is made (and They see fit to try A LOT) to modify the standard template of the Chase Film. Nobody gives a cold squat about the interiors of the supplementary characters they DO spend screen time investigating, CONVERSELY the screentime they spend on fleshing out the characters we DO want to squat over is mired in some "BRILLIANT CHOICE" concept that waves a wand at creating some knock-off brand EXISTENTIAL AMBIGUITY: in the same way we don't know what's in the oh-so-soughtafter ice skate box, we know as much about what's inside our main characters. This strategy CAN work, but its failure here demonstrates the difference between 'Masters' and 'Journeymen'.
Unrecommended.

I'm a flexible guy. I got an open mind. I go to silly movies, and I can usually find some kind of redeeming quality. Perhaps a smartly crafted script to pay the rent; maybe a nice performance doomed by an ineffectual director; maybe a nice effect job or a good costume, nice photography...
WHATEVER! Anything! Toss me a bone, fer cris'sakes...
This film has nothing. I respect Sandler. He has that certain something, but this piece of trash is truely USELESS.
I want my money back.
