The Infernal Machine

This was quite an ok flick. Large part of this is due to Guy Pearce's contribution. He's usually a dependable actor, and comes through here with flying colors. In fact he's the best thing about the movie. Granted that the rest of the cast aren't given much space, apart from Jeremy Davies who is also brilliant with his limited role, no one else stands out. Alice Eve as the female officer doesn't work at all.

The movie itself is very slow moving, but I still found myself getting drawn in to the story. Can't say that the ending had any particular payoff for me, but it still worked. Would say I was pleasantly surprised by this.
