Despite having amazing actors as Laura Linney, Norma Aleandro, Hiroyuki Sanada Anthony Hopkins the movie fails to click with me.
Mainly because of two reasons. One, the movie depends too much on the performance on actor in main character. Sadly, Omar Metwally was by far not one for this kind of delicate and charming work. Metwally fails miserably and it is obvious that he is completely out of his league besides Linney, Sanada and Hopkins
Secondly, even though The City of your Final Desination is well-intentioned and starts with a good premise, it does not develop at all. The result is a film nothing but boring to a really high degree.
I would not recommend this movie, unless you are a die hard fan of the great Hopkins, Sanada or Linney.
The famous Argentina theater legend Norma Aleandro is even in a couple minutes in the movie, obviously under-used.
I gave it a 5 out of 10 just because Hopkins, Sanada and Linney are in there. They did their job. But the boring script and the poor main character ruined it 100%.
