Asher

Thriller, Crime
2.0*/5.0*

Ron Perlman is an actor you need to use wisely. He has presence, but he's not the best drama actor. It's no surprise then that he stumbles in a straight-faced crime/thriller about a hitman falling in love and hoping to find redemption. Michael Caton-Jones' heavy-handed direction only makes things worse.

Perlman and Janssen are weak and there's no spark between them, the sullen and loaded atmosphere feels somewhat misplaced and the pacing is a little too sluggish. Somehow Caton-Jones convinced himself he was making a really deep, moving film, but the result is basic genre fare that takes itself way too serious.
