Well what to say about this particular, to be of quite interest. I was most intrigued with the plot. For once, I was able to get the plot. However half way through, I was like whats going on. I found the characters to be of MOST confusing. I was left, who is who. Why is he there etc., etc., Like why did the killers kill each other, etc., etc., The plot simply put Matt(Neeson) an ex cop, goes into Private Investigation in the Unlicensed sense, and is tasked by Kenny(Stevens) to find his wife, who is brutally we later learn has been murdered n dismembered. Some scenes(not much) were a bit disturbing I have to say. Kenny wants Matt “to bring them to me”. The film was enticed around kidnapping and dismembering of women. During the investigation, Matt befriended(Kinda strong a word – hahaha) with a grave cleaner guy. Fearing for his life, he kills himself by way of jumping off the building. As he had given information the viewer was treated to even more insight and as such some of the disturbing viewing as I said above. We then learn of how Matt became an unlicensed PI(Private Investigator) which we actually learn. It so happens because he actually missed a shot and shot an innocent girl in the eye from a distance of which is another scene we didn’t need to see. Which frankly I don’t understand. Technically if you leave the job or ur fired, why become an UNLICENSED PI, either apply for another job or a different field or don’t bother. Don’t get urself in a life of crime sort of thing. At the beginning of the film, we are treated to Matt as a LICENSED PI. He’s sitting peacefully in a bar having 2 shots and a coffee. Then the barman is shot, Matt himself gets a fright like us all, haahah. This possibly is how is alcoholism started as throughout the film, we see Matt attending meetings. The main villains that we see in the film, have their faces hidden(well in the dark) and are seen driving around for women. Matt meets a young inspirational man who advertises VEGETARIANISM and possibly VEGANISM as when he;s asked in a restaurant with Matt, if he’d like a soda, TJ(Astro) tells the waitress that he’d like water, as there isn’t extra stuff and ingredients etc., So Matt comes in contact with the two guys. Then a fight ensues between Matt, Kenny and the killers: Ray(Harbour) and Albert(Thompson).
