Why didn't you like it?

Please, explain why you didn't like it or why you think it is a bad film. I found some faults like:

- The blonde witness only Bruce knows about. He practically created a witness out of nothing and none of the others checked.
-The violent gang in the car. Shouldn't they be partying somewhere on new year's eve?
- They don't say when and why he stopped being a good detective nor why his wife left him.
- It's not explained how they found the attackers.

But still I liked the movie and I think it's good. Didn't you like it because you don't think it's good or didn't you like it because it just isn't your type of film?

The acting was well done by McAvoy, but the "plot" was rubbish. I didn't care about any of the one-dimensional characters or what happened to them.

its series of rampant scenes get very predictable after awhile, reducing their shock value. I remember thinking that this movie was so madcap and random that bad cop was probably going to end up being the "woman", and lo it happened.

Shock value scenes need to be balanced out more normal scenes in order to keep them shocking.

But I actually liked a lot of it, it just got too random for its own good and with no plot to hold onto...

But I stil say I liked a lot of the scenes/imagery, there was obviously a lot of time put into them trying to get them just right visually.
