I enjoyed the first half but found the 2nd half less entertaining, in fact towards the end my interest was beginning to fade a bit.

Very good performances though.
Yeah, I agree. Thought it was a fantastic film for the most part then it just seemed to end out of nowhere. I was just left thinking What!? what happened, did I miss something? Really disappointing considering what a great film it was.
I'm really hoping there's a sequel because it set up this story then just ended with no resolution. (SPOILERS) Since when was Nikolai working for the police? it seemed to have no relevance to the story and what happened to Semyon? It just seemed really rushed to me. A bit disappointing violence wise aswell.

The performances were top notch though, I thought Viggo was excellent.
