Review of A Common Man

A Common Man (2013)
1/10
Thoroughly Disappointing

Warning: Spoilers
Seeing Ben Kingsly and Ben Cross on the cast, made me excited that they came to Sri Lanka to make a movie. I thought given the resources and talent available in the local film industry I expected a very convincing movie, but as most of us were, i was Thoroughly Disappointed.

Firstly let me say that the dialog was utter crap. It was so bad, it had me laughing my sides out. The script seemed to meander purposelessly, and the police at the head quarters lacked the urgency you would usually find when a National Security department gets a bomb threat. To make things worse, the acting was just artificial and almost ammature. I doubt Mr Weeraman could ever out-do his terrible performance.

This is possibly the lowest Mr Kingsly would ever reach in his career, I look forward to his performance in Iron Man 3.
