What was good
The overall premise looked interesting, and Gyllenhaal played his part well, a good guy with a bad past, essentially the good the bad and the ugly set in florida keys
Not so good
It falls apart with the cardboard gangster bad guys and absurd mobster boss son .
I'm ready to enjoy the 'all action nonsense' genre but not 'all action ludicrous'. E.g. The mob owns everything including the cops and they still can't take care of one bouncer . Throw in a random crocodile and you get a sense of how absurd the whole film becomes.
Having said that, I did watch it to the end, But it was dissapointing, I was left with a sense this could have been a good film if it had a more believable storyline.
Would I watch it again? Definitely not.
