Just saw it.....and this film is a fukking MESS. If you think Taylor Kitsch is a terrible actor, this will do nothing to change your mind. He's by far the worst actor on the screen.
There are a lot off really odd, distracting choices Oliver Stone makes...like the clock/countdown, the random black and white....but nothing was worse than the narration. Not only was the narration pointless, lazy and distracting, but Blake Lively is an awful narrator.
And finally....
However, Benicio Del Toro was fantastic. His slightly off, quietly maniacal Mexican-mafia-hitman was perfect. One of my favorite performances this year so far. Best part of the film, easily.
All that said, I enjoyed it

fukk THE ENDING. Seriously, fukk Oliver Stone. That's the most bullshyt manipulative nonsensical ending I can remember seeing. Easily the worst part of the film
