I just went to a matinee showing of this movie. It was quite moving--in fact I was moved to tears a couple of times.
Definitely a lot of action, but it shouldn't be classified as an action film, more of a drama as others have said here. Yes, a lot of the reviews weren't great, but a few turned up that were positive enough that I wanted to see this one.
And I don't know why it's getting such bad reviews, other than BW's politics. I've seen awful movies that I've had to walk out of, that critics rave about.
The theatre was packed too! Many young fellows among the audience, guys in their late teens to 20s, and a lot of fathers with their pre-teen sons.
I would definitely recommend it. Some reviewers have complained that the plot was thin, but maybe I just didn't notice it, the story was quite engrossing and emotional, in fact.
And the famous quote by Edmund Burke is used in this movie:
"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."
