The only reason I gave it two stars was because of the two leading actors. Pacino gets a star and so does De Niro. Unfortunately it isn't enough to save this disaster of a film. It really has the feel of something that was thrown together after getting the confirmation these two great actors had agreed to do the picture. Some of the scenes seem forced and are edited together in rapid-fire fashion that was a real turn-off to me. Hour-long prime time television dramas aren't cut together this poorly. It would be rather unfortunate if this is going to be one of the last times we get to see these two legends on the same screen together.

Starts out with a great premise for a superhero story. A superhero who has damaged his credibility with the public and reluctantly tries to build up some star power by enlisting the help of a public relations manager. However half-way through a plot twist comes your way and if you are paying attention, you see it coming. Then before you know it the film ends rather abruptly. Will Smith is gold as usual. He doesn't play his charming all-American good guy. Think more about Dr. House than Superman.

I wanted more from the film because I like the initial concept. I expected more from a script that was penned by former X-Files writer Vince Gilligan too!
