    Not really, would have been more dull.

    I mean the fact theres only short gun fight in the whole film makes said gun fight carry more weight than anything I've seen in say, transformers, american sniper, etc.

    If the central character was a hard cynical burnt out undercover operator who has seen it all, is disgusted by what he has to do but still gets a buzz from the danger it would have been far more fun.

    There could have been more plot lines about corruption and double dealing at the highest level of politics and the military and the paramilitaries filtering down to street level.

    A kind of Belfast version of Chinatown in other words.

    But it already does that. It just doesn't blare it in the viewers face.

    I like the movie and what it tries to do but I didn't like the "happy" ending.

    It didn't ring true for me.
