I had high expectations but looks like it's not even worth the money

I hated it from the second an actor known for being super attractive and ripped was cast to play the world's best hacker. Let's be real. Those don't go together.

Then you need to get a new critic; no way any reviewer should rate this movie any better than average, and that's a bit of a stretch.

And the casting was terrible not because this character shouldn't look like the actor they chose, but because the actor they chose couldn't evoke a single emotional response.

After seeing Blackhat today, I'm going to go ahead and say that In the Heart of the Sea is going to bomb. For all the action they pack into that trailer, a whale can only slam into a boat so many times before the audience looses interest. That movie is going to require a complex lead role to pass time between attacks and Hemsworth just proved that he can't deliver.

The dude who scored the film wrote a long "frick you" to Mann on facebook after none of the work he did actually ended up in the film but he still got the credit. He said Mann just took his work and butchered it however he wanted to. apparently Mann has a reputation for this.

There is a reason studios refer to January and February as "dump month".

And yea, what awful casting.

If ever there were a role for Eddie Redmayne to transition to, this would be it. That's the guy who's hacking you, not the dude they pulled from the Abercrombie photo shoot.

The 1st time I saw the commercial I thought it was an SNL sketch.
