Solace Review
Starring Anthony Hopkins, Jeffery Dean morgan, Abbie
Cornish, and Colin Farrell
An FBI agent asks help from a Psychic doctor to track down a
serial killer behind the murders. Anthony Hopkins plays the role of “john
Clancy” a psychic. He is also the Executive producer of the film. I think his
character was trying to be funny and intense but he failed to capture the
intensity that was required for the character. Editing of the film is also
partly to blame for this, which I will talk about a little later. Jeffery
morgan plays the role of the FBI Agent joe Merriiwether. I liked Jeffery from
his “Supernatural” days but in this film I didn’t connect withhis character and
he is used as tool to push the plot further. I liked Abbie Cornish in her role
as Katherine Cowles, She played it well and I can easily say that she is one of
the best things about the movie.
Colin Farrell is also in this movie, I can’t say much about
his character without ruining the film but I think he was not menacing enough
in his role. I did not buy the premise
of his role at all in this this movie.
Its was not just the
characters but there were couple of scenes which had problems that bugged me
for example the scene where Agent Cowles first meets John, she places the
Victim files on the kitchen counter and in the next shot they disappear or in
the Scene where joe is in hospital in one scene and he is talking and looks
like he is going to be ok and in the
next ------ Spoiler Alert ------
He dies, now they could have easily showed him dying in the
same scene but they did a dramatic cut to the funeral and I think
it just didn’t work.
My final thoughts on this film:
Spoiler Alert!!!
Ending that’s what I
have the most problem with . So colin’s character wants Anthony’s charater to
keep killing his place right; so that means he wants him to take up torch in
his place What!!??? He is Fucking 90
years old and you want him to take it further? See this is why this movie
doesn’t work. I think the Roles should have been reversed Colin should have played Anthony’s role and
Anthony Should have played Colin’s in this way allest the Climax would have
worked ok now that I think about it many thing could have worked
Think about!!!! A little sexual tension between him and
agent cowles, young father with dead child huh!!! It could have worked
What do you Think???
