The first review that matched my thoughts exactly. When I saw the previews I couldn't help but think that this reminded me of those generic straight-to-video '90s thrillers that I would see late night on cable or local TV. It wasn't just that it looked underwhelming and bland but the visual style even looked dated. I'm glad I'm not the only one who got that impression.

Also, I agree with JST. With the exception of "The Social Network" (which would have been a success with or without him), Justin has proven time and time again that he's not a bankable star. Why he keeps getting lead roles in high profile movies is baffling.

He is only good at being silly and goofy on SNL with very little range . I saw the trailer and tv spots of Runner , Runner , and Ben Affleck seems like he is giving another wooden performance .
