The Drop- Don't Bother

I was excited to fire up The Drop featuring Jimmy Gandolfini and Tom Hardy. The movie seemed like a movie centered around robbing money from a "Drop bar" where illegal money is dropped and picked up by mobsters, etc. I assumed this would mean wild badassery from Tom Hardy, or AT LEAST Jimmy Gandolfini, but sadly it does not. It just drags on for 107 minutes of mediocrity and attempted character development. I joked about 20 minutes through that Tom Hardy's character is "deeply troubled" as evidenced by EVERYTHING about the character. Bottom Line: 5.1 out of 10. Deeply disappointing, down to Tom Hardy's bullshit simpleton "accent".
