Review - Broken City

image taken from imdb.com

This is the second russel crowe movie I've watched in 3 days. Broken city, starred by Mark Wahlberg as Billy Taggart and Russel Crowe as Nicholas Hostetler and Catherine Zeta-Jones as Cathleen Hostetler.

The movie started with Billy Taggart's trial for murder, and he was released because of the reason self defense . The movie rolls again about Billy's relationship with a girl named Natalia Barrow, who turns up to be the sister of the girl he proclaimed to defend on the first place.
Well, I thought it was going to be politics, filled with intrigue here and there, but it's not as deep as I expected.
Even though there are political issues, but it was something we expected. Everyone kept the secret of everybody so they could use it in time. In the movie, I am amazed with Catherine Zeta-Jones' beauty, she's one of the kind. She really steals the attention with her elegance , maybe because I haven't watch her movie in a very long time, but she did well in this movie.
At the end, everybody paid their price for their sins. Not much surprise as I thought it's going to be, but it's an OK movie I think.
I give this movie 3/5 stars!
