I'm all for action, I like action movies, I really do. Honest. Big explosions, car chases, fist fights, spectacular stunts, all good.

But this is just taking the p**s! This is 10 minutes of plot stretched to 2 hours 32 minutes!! 2 HOURS 32 MINUTES!! One seemingly endless action sequence followed by another with a plot which could easily (and has been) be fitted in a comic book. I found I was looking at my watch more than the screen, and thats not good.

And as for Heath Ledger's performance, is it pork? Is it bacon? No, its just plain old HAM! Sorry he is dead and all but really, please, any talk of an Oscar is just silly.
