r xmas be one of the only film i have see where i can almost say that simply nothing happen . i felt a though i watch a drug deal middle class couple and with child and walk around and eat and smoke and converse ( excuse me and swear ) through most of the film . and i do not believe i be miss the point . i think this film be well direct and well act ( although the husband performance be rather wooden ) and and the constant feeling of impend doom around every corner certainly keep the viewer involve . but when the dust clear and your left with zero ( just a boat load of fade out ) . i do not want car chase and gun violence and beating and etc . in fact and i be sick of violence . but my goodness and let at least get a bit deep into all these character ( let get to know each of these corrupt officer a little well not just show glance shot of them a street thug ) . why be the dialogue so juvenile . everyone speak a if they be in junior high . i believe even this side of our human race can say something other than fu_ _ and sh_ _ and etc . the pacing and the storyline of r xmas i find quite interesting and but the execution be plain and simple empty . 4/10 .
