At the limit, a "Lethal Weapon" cumbersome

Mel Gibson has long been forgotten should act and direct more controversial films. A man who has shown much less know how to direct action. I prefer the Gibson "The Passion" than now, a sesentañero you need to return to action in front of cameras to cover perhaps its next controversial film.

At the limit, half translated "Edge of Darkness" (the edge of darkness) introduces us to Gibson, as a police investigator in Boston and entradito year is visited by his daughter, which knows little or nothing . That night, her daughter will die (not going to tell you how, it is quite shocking and inseperado) and he, with the trauma of his death, begin to investigate, what most innovative screenplay, eh?.

Gradually we will be revealing a truth about corporations serving the nation, the dirt on governments, aid to the political campaigns - do not you remember the Spanish scene?. Obviously is not as reliable as I say, but last touches all these issues.

Concerning the film, in my opinion, the script is quite convoluted and the characters are anything to go by clarifying the plot against the clock as a frame with corporations (not dermoestéticas) involved, could not be solved in 120 min. having more shootings by tear gas and scenes from the Lethal Weapon actor.

It could have been a great movie style of Play , Body of Lies , The Firm , Wag the Dog , The dilemma (the latter two blockbusters where appropriate), but no capacity to act seriously Mel and " necessity "of the director if we see some of his films: Casino Royale (007) , The Legend of Zorro , Vertical Limit , to include violence and shootings make this a project failed thriller. If, however, want action "made in Gibson," below, you will enjoy conventional film.
