There were just some things that irked me, like how he used...3? MIA tracks on the soundtrack. I'm a fan of her music, but I don't know. something about their use said "this movie is made by a Briton" to me.

The story was a cool idea, but the characters didn't grab me too much. a lot of times i found myself wishing jamal would either do something else, say something, get the fuck out of there, let it be... I don't know, I guess everyone was kind of frustrating.

I did like the ending though w/ the cell phone and all. Salim's end seemed a little corny and maybe a bit out of character. It's true that he had always walked a fine line of both looking out for his brother and then screwing him over, but it was kind of odd. I thought that he was at least going to set the money on fire.
