“I watched it at Göteborg film festival som days ago. I really wanted to like this but its just didnt click for me. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe actors fail to sell the love story, they dont connect on the screen and that technobabble from Alicia Vikanders character doesnt make it better. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eTwo parallell stories at once. For this to work the love story need to be sold, but it just doesnt work. I dont belive it when the main characters get outburst, the reaction feels to theatric and it becomes a make belive reaction for show. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eTo really make the terrorist look bad and evil they put in things that just oversell the evilness of the terrorist. Yes I get it, they are the badguys but it becomes a bit to much. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSorry. I really wanted to enjoy this but it didnt work for me.”
