1/10
What have you been doing, Benicio?

Warning: Spoilers
On paper Reptile is right up my street. A gritty cop drama staring Benicio Del Toro, what's not to like? So it was with high hopes that I began to watch Reptile and my hopes were repaid in the first half hour with a decent set up for characters and plot. However the narrative starts to drift like a rudderless super tanker and after sixty minutes the movie is going nowhere and there's still over an hour to go. I reach for the remote and the movie gets the single star treatment.

Speaking of stars Benicio Del Toro is bad in this. He looks bored and frankly terrible, time has not been kind to Benicio I'm afraid. Has it only been five years since Sicario: Day of the Soldado? He looks 20 years older than he did back then. What have you been doing, Benicio?
