Its as if Greengrass doesn't trust his images, which is understandable considering the mundanity of his compositional sense. Yet framing issues are secondary to his maddening disregard coherence in his frenetic skirmishes, shot in blurry handheld, often in darkness, and chopped to pieces in the editing room so that characters' geographic relationship to one another, and the progression of incidents within a given scene, are wholly indiscernible." I think this is spot-on.

Every line of dialogue was cliche. At the FSLC screening, people were holding back laughter.
