A film I inexplicably rather like, appreciating the sum of its parts more than its whole. Great themes, good performances, bold narrative choices, and some good action. The source of all evil for this film is Brett Ratner. He's a terrible director who has no eye for nuance in performance or blocking, ruining scenes that are gift-wrapped for success. Had Singer, Vaughn, or Mangold overseen this material it could have been one of the best installments in the franchise. Instead, it is merely a guilty pleasure.
