Not a master-piece but it's a very good a movie
I just finished seeing this one I found it very worthy to have a look at it.
The story is told in a different way Hollywood uses to do and a different view of a action movie is kind of rare.
OK, the camera is kind of shaky almost all the time but I've said it before: when there is a reason for it for me it's OK. Here the tension is printed by this moving camera and also by the fast editing - without this two elements is kind of difficult to make the film moving or interesting.
The camera closure to the actors shows an intimacy to the characters, we see their expressions constantly and without this it would be difficult because there is no so many dialogues or "shot/reverse-shot" kind of scenes, the action took all the time needed.
The point of views are interesting but sometimes confusing even with the subtitles indicating the time, not a big problem to me.
Nokas has a nice and interesting kind of storytelling that is unusually welcome - at least for me.
