Anyone feel like the setup to the film was way too long?

I'm all for character development and plot setup but the action doesn't really even kick in into around 45 minute mark and then it seem like rushed action scenes....anyone else feel that way?

The film was less than 90 minutes long. You need to see the gang working and interrelating to understand why they might act like they did. Otherwise you will end up with a bunch of action scenes that don't mean much at all.

I think the film struck a fair balance.
